Hooded U.K. youth whacking Papa John’s drivers with eggs; and singer Fergie’s got milk for her ‘primal’ spicy Taco Bell craving

A news summary focused on 10 big employers; updated 8:14 a.m.

PAPA JOHN’S: Police in south England are investigating a string of recent attacks where hooded youths are pelting motorbike-riding Papa John’s delivery men with eggs, causing at least one serious crash that sent  a driver to the hospital with a bruised shoulder and black eye. The latest incident in south England came after the same driver was attacked with 10 eggs several weeks ago in Cheltenham an hour west of Oxford.

“Even I have had eggs thrown at me,” the store manager there said. “It’s very dangerous, you do not know what is going to happen next. My staff say it is not safe out there” (Gloucestershire Live).

Back in the United States, Panera Bread claims the former top IT executive who left to work for Papa John’s this month wiped his work computer of critical trade secrets, a statement a federal judge said justified a temporary restraining order barring the executive from joining the Louisville pizza giant. In a lawsuit filed in its St. Louis hometown, the bakery chain says the executive, Michael Nettles, will use the secrets to compete for business from young consumers drawn to the latest ordering technology. Nettles’ LinkedIn profile says he was Panera’s vice president for enterprise architecture and IT strategy (Courier-Journal).

Meanwhile, in the Detroit area, the pizza chain was advertising yesterday for delivery people with a “keen sense of direction with the ability to read a map or use GPS” (Craigslist).

PIZZA HUT was also advertising for drivers — “awesome people,” in fact — to make $12-$15 an hour delivering pies in Cincinnati (Craigslist, too).

TACO BELL: Singer Fergie is still a huge fan of super-spicy Taco Bell food, turning a meal into what a British newspaper today called “absolutely carnage,” citing an interview in NME magazine. The 41-year-old megastar behind the recent hit “M.I.L.F.$” told NME: “It’s a binge meal for me, so I don’t do it all the time. But when I do, I go hard.” She added: “I’m like, primal.”

The singer-songwriter pledged undying love to the fast-Mexican chain six years ago in her smash hit single “Glamorous,” singing: “I still go to Taco Bell/Drive through, raw as hell/I don’t care, I’m still real/no matter how many records I sell” (Sunday World).

Stars are just like us! They eat KFC and Taco Bell, according to professional booty Kardashian

Realty TV star and newly cast MILF Kim Kardashian orders extra-crispy chicken wings with a biscuit at KFC, while “just lets loose and gets both a soft and hard beef taco” at Taco Bell, according to Australia’s News.

“Fast food is def one of my guilty pleasures,” Kardashian wrote on her website, pointing out she’s on the Atkins diet but still has cravings. “I go very rarely, but OMG I love it so much when I decide to indulge.”

And yet! Kardashian, 35, and all of 5’3″ tall, has lost 7 lbs. in the last two weeks, and she’s not stopping there, says E Online. She’s aiming to lose even more in order to get down to at least 120 lbs.

She was fit enough to appear in singer Fergie‘s new barely-safe-for-work “M.I.L.F 4” video, an appearance that sparked a controversy over her too-tiny-to-believe waist. “It’s called ‘styling,'” Kardashian harrumphed on Instagram, “not Photoshop.”
