"Merely encouraging consumers to eat its products 'everyday' is mere puffery, at most, in the absence of a claim that to do so will result in a specific effect on health," he said.

I remember, many years ago, sitting on my parents’ bed as my father — a mild-mannered engineer — dug through their closet, pulling out blade after blade from his knife collection. “All this will be yours when I’m gone,” he joked, pointing to the panoply of fighting dirks, Swiss Army gadgets, and fat multitools that overflowed from the shelves, along with hunting gear, dozens of flashlights, and even a pistol or two.We were searching for an appropriate knife for me to take on our hike up a nearby mountain, just in case something terrible happened. As we sifted through the pile, my father said that when he was my age, he carried a pocket knife with him everywhere he went. I pointed out that would probably get me expelled from my middle school, but he just laughed. “That didn’t stop us. We wanted to be prepared for anything. You should carry it with you when you can.”Users would reveal the items they carry on their person every day, such as your wallet, keys, phone, or even a knife or twoScrounging for Father’s Day gifts for my dad over the past few years has introduced me to a world he would probably feel right at home in: “everyday carry,” or EDC. While the term — usually used as a noun, like “my EDC” — was originally born out of threads on outdoor enthusiast forums where users would reveal the items they carry on their person every day, such as your wallet, keys, phone, or even a knife or two, it’s now exploded into full-blown subculture.Since these EDC hubs began to sprout up all over the web, from the popular Reddit community /r/EDC to the lifestyle blog EverydayCarry.com, the meaning of the acronym has shifted from what people do carry to what they should carry, with a focus on “readiness” — often at a fairly steep price point. While proponents of the EDC lifestyle stress that personal carry is ultimately dependent on your needs and personality, there’s a strain of perfectibility that runs just under the surface; a creeping sense that the next piece of gear you buy will be the one that finally makes it into your ideal.The world of EDC has many entry points, and for r/EDC user Tim Hayes, having the power to control situations that crop up in everyday life was a big part of the appeal. He came to the hobby through a particularly popular 2013 YouTube video featuring Mythbusters host Adam Savage. (Several people I talked to also cited this video as a major turning point.) The concept of treasuring the seemingly mundane objects that you carry every day was inculcated in Hayes by his father, who gave him a wallet that belonged to his own grandfather as a symbol of his entry to adulthood. As a former Boy Scout, Hayes was more than familiar with the concept of “readiness,” so when he stumbled upon page after page of carefully posed shots of high-end gear like flashlights and folding knives, he felt right at home. “EDC has been crucial to me, especially in the subcategory of vehicle everyday carry,” he says. “I’ve used my carry to treat small cuts and burns, tie down loads in and on my car, repair my brakes when I was stranded dozens of miles from home, help a driver out of a snowbank.
