Here's a fun game for the family: Search for "cheesecake" in your search engine of choice and then count how many links you have to check before you find a webpage which does not connect to one of: Google, CloudFlare, Akamai, Amazon, Facebook, Twitter

For me, it was 34 links. And that 34th link was the Wikipedia-article for cheesecake...
