Fans Are Ecstatic Over Kerrygold's New 'Rich' and 'Comforting' Item: 'Oh My Heavens'
As far as butter brands go, Kerrygold is worth its weight in, well, gold. It's quite literally the gold standard in high-quality butter, and while it's slightly more expensive than your casual stick of Land 'O Lakes, it's still reasonably affordable for the average home cook. It's renowned for its golden hue and unmistakably buttery flavor that gets a boost from its higher fat content and nuanced cultured profile. Some even say it has a slightly grassy bouquet due to their use of milk from grass-fed Irish cows.
Being the cream of the crop might seem effortless for the undisputed heavyweight champ of butter, but even icons know that it's important to reinvent themselves. Much like Beyoncé seamlessly transitions from the atmospheric synth-pop beats of house music to the crooning, bleeding heart of country, Kerrygold continues to prove why it's earned its spot at number one on the Butter Hot 100 charts.Not that it needs to be anything more than the reliably delicious spread that it is, but we won't complain about getting a little something extra from our fave now and then. In a move we never saw coming, the beloved butter brand just announced a decidedly sweet new item that's got our imagination running wild with possibilities. If you thought the OG was good, wait until you get a load of the new Cinnamon & Sugar Butter sticks from Kerrygold. We totally understand if you're drooling.That's right, friends. As if it couldn't get any butter (pun intended), the fan-favorite butter brand just announced that you can now find the sweetly nostalgic sticks out in the wild, and yes, we're hyperventilating. The rich and comforting sticks feature the flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar, rounded out by lemon juice and salt for balance. Not only would this be great softened and spread on crusty bread, but it's the ultimate cinnamon shortcut and would be fantastic on top of waffles.
You could even whip it up into a luxurious buttercream frosting, but we won't tell if you just take a bite right out of the stick itself. As expected, fans (myself included) were losing their minds in the comments. 'Respectfully, please give it to me,' demanded one fan. 'OMG 😮,' said someone else. And of course, there were plenty of recipe ideas, including everything from 'French toast' and 'biscuits' to 'croissants' and 'snickerdoodle cookies.'
If you're looking to try it out for yourself, the sweet new sticks have been spotted at Target and Whole Foods stores and will likely pop up wherever the brand is sold. While we are forever satisfied with this new innovation from Kerrygold, one fan offered another hit of inspo, saying, 'Now create chocolate butter and we can talk lol.'

The True Story Behind the 'Sunday Best'
On July 21, Netflix debuted Sunday Best, a documentary about The Ed Sullivan Show—the longest-running variety show in U.S. broadcast history—and how it featured Black American performers at a time when discrimination was still rampant in the U.S. in the 1950s and 1960s. Though the U.S. Supreme Court ruled segregated schools unconstitutional in 1954, and the Civil Rights Act was passed in 1964, the documentary highlights how racism never really went away. The Ed Sullivan Show, which aired from 1948 to 1971 and boasted between 35 and 50 million viewers each Sunday night, was one of the first mainstream stages to showcase Black talent—as the artists wanted to be seen. Viewers will see snippets of past performances on the show by Harry Belafonte, Stevie Wonder, Nat King Cole, Nina Simone, James Brown, The Jackson 5, and The Supremes. In the documentary, entertainment greats like Belafonte and Smokey Robinson talk about the influence of Sullivan's show, and through a recreation of Ed Sullivan's voice, Sunday Best features Sullivan's comments on racial issues over the years, verbatim from his letters, articles, and columns. 'He was a door opener, especially for Black artists,' says Otis Williams, lead singer of The Temptations. 'This man opened up his door and let artists come on his show to express and be seen.' Here's a look at how the doc dives into Sullivan's modern (for his time) worldview, featuring the Black entertainers who talk about how much it meant to be on his Sunday night show. A progressive streak Sunday Best argues that one of the reasons that Sullivan was so open-minded was because he grew up poor in Harlem, at a time when it had a sizable Irish and Jewish population. The Irish had a history of facing discrimination, so Sullivan was more attuned to the mistreatment of Black people in America. As a high schooler in Port Chester, N.Y., Sullivan played baseball and regularly encountered teams with Black players, so he believed in integration from an early age. As Sullivan explains in a TV interview, 'When we played baseball [at] Port Chester High School, there were Negroes in the league, and some fellas actually said they would not play against a Negro. I always resented them very deeply because the Irish had gone through that when they first came…My parents knew these things were wrong, and they were not just broad-minded, but sensible.' In fact, during his first career as a journalist, he slammed New York University's decision to bench a Black player during a game against the University of Georgia in a column he wrote as sports editor for the New York Evening Graphic. 'I was sickened to read NYU's agreement to bench a negro player for the entire game,' he wrote in 1929. 'What a shameful state of affairs this is…If a New York City university allows the Mason-Dixon line to be erected in the center of its playing field, then that university should disband its football [team] for all time.' And he didn't hold back when he started hosting a variety TV show in 1948—renamed The Ed Sullivan Show in 1955. 'We've been called upon to search our hearts and souls of hatred, cleanse them of a natural hate and fear for our neighbors…Bigotry and intolerance, racial or religious hate and discrimination are spiritual acts of treason.' He also called upon Americans to 'join in this great crusade for our brotherhood' for a 'united America is the sole remaining hope for our shattered world.' Door opener In Sunday Best, singer Dionne Warwick says Sullivan 'wanted his audience to understand that there was a lot of talent out there that needed exposure.' Belafonte, who appeared on the Ed Sullivan show 10 times, says Sullivan 'pushed the envelope as far as the envelope could be pushed.' He says CBS network executives almost stopped him from first performing on the show in 1953 because of his left-wing politics, and Sullivan called him to tell him he might have to cancel the appearance. But Sullivan was the one who convinced the network to let the show go on. 'He gave me a chance to talk to him about acts considered rebellious,' Belafonte explains. 'Those who weren't happy about giving us the platform with us about politics…Ed took the position, 'let's test it, and see where it would go.'' Ed Sullivan still had Nat King Cole on the show in May 1956, a month after the entertainer was attacked in Birmingham, Alabama. He had the child prodigy Stevie Wonder on in 1964 when he was only 13 years old. Members of the Jackson 5 talked about how their 1969 appearance helped launch them to a new level of fame. 'To Motown, The Ed Sullivan Show was the ultimate,' Berry Gordy, Motown Records founder, says in the doc. 'If it was a hot act, Ed Sullivan had them. It was American culture.' And though Sullivan died in 1974 at the age of 73, music can still bring people together. As Robinson puts it, 'Music is the international language. It's the barrier breaker.'

The Bag of Summer Is a BAB
Anna Barger was walking down the streets of Paris this spring with the necessities of her day stuffed into an oversize bag when inspiration struck. 'All a girl really needs on a solo day in a city,' she says in a TikTok video, 'is a trusty BAB.' From that point on, BAB, an acronym for 'Big Ass Bag,' has become a staple of Ms. Barger's wardrobe and vocabulary. The 26-year-old content creator is one of many women on social media who are lugging large totes and purses over their shoulders this summer, in what appears to be an emerging trend. 'It feels like girlhood because we've all carried a big bag with a bunch of stuff in it,' Ms. Barger said in an interview, later adding, 'We've all had that moment.' In the TV show 'Succession,' the character Tom Wambsgans ridiculed the concept, calling a Burberry tote a 'ludicrously capacious bag.' But the proponents of the current trend rave about the functionality of a BAB, and how they fill it with all the items one may need on a lengthy outing, including — but not limited to — multiple shades of lip gloss, hand sanitizer, a miniature fan, a kindle, a magazine, books, a computer, an iPad, a camera and Pilates socks. 'A girl with a BAB is a specific vibe,' Ms. Barger said. 'She's ready for the entire day.' Macy Hyman, a 24-year-old content creator in Boston, said the accessory was particularly helpful for people living in cities, because it could eliminate the need to return home between activities. 'I will leave super early in the morning and pack up my huge bag with me, with everything I'll possibly need, and just take it for the day,' Ms. Hyman said. A BAB can come in all shapes and sizes, and has no required designer pedigree. While Ms. Barger's latest BAB is a Miu Miu, the first tote she showcased came from Anthropologie. Others picked theirs up from flea markets and retail stores. (Several social media users said cross-body functionality, however, gave it bonus points.) The ultimate BAB, of course, was the original Birkin from Hermès, which recently sold at auction for $10 million. That bag, a prototype for what has become among the most coveted accessories in fashion, was crafted for the actress Jane Birkin so that she could hold all her essentials — diapers, cigarettes, notebooks and more — without spilling them. Maria Ochoa, a 19-year-old fashion student in New York City, said she was not aware that BAB was an 'actual' term that had been going around, because her penchant for carrying a large bag had already been a long-running joke among her and her friends. But she said she had seen its popularity grow over the last year. 'I think it's a really 'it' accessory right now,' Ms. Ochoa said. She carries everything she could need in her BAB, she said, including beauty products, a film camera and crystals 'for the good vibes.'
