Behind that aroma is a complex cheese packed full of flavor.Just because an ingredient or dish is polarizing doesn’t mean it’s not worth your time. As a child I didn’t like mushrooms — their somewhat slippery texture can be off-putting — but learning to love them over the years has opened up new opportunities to enjoy a meaty, umami-packed, and versatile ingredient. What would I do without buttery mushroom pastas and crispy fried fungi in my life now? Among the world of misunderstood ingredients, perhaps none is as renowned stinky cheeses. Taleggio, Limburger, Époisses, raclette, and Gruyère are all varieties...

That’s a buzz kill! Big Apple beer hounds may have to fork over 13% more for a brew as congestion pricing drives up costs for customers and businesses alike in some of Manhattan’s busiest neighborhoods. Anheuser-Busch, whose brands include Budweiser, Michelob Ultra, Stella Artois and Corona, will raise keg prices by $5 across the board for customers throughout the NYC area, a company sales rep told The Post this week. “We’re building the cost of congestion pricing into delivery fees,” the rep said. And that means bars will likely have to charge an extra dollar per pint to offset the...

A senior Canadian official is threatening to cut off electricity to some 1.5 million Americans and ban the import of US-made beer and liquor as part of a potential trade war with the incoming Trump administration. Doug Ford, the premier of the Canadian province of Ontario, suggested retaliating against possible tariffs that President-elect Donald Trump has threatened to impose on products from Canada. During a meeting on Wednesday with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other premiers, Ford predicted that there is a “100%” chance that Trump will make good on his pledge to slap a 25% tariff on all...

Bud Light sales are never going to recover. And yet now is the time to buy shares of its brewer, Anheuser-Busch InBev, say analysts at Citi. Analysts argue that the weakness in U.S. volumes — where Bud Light sales are deteriorating even after more than a year of a consumer boycott — are being offset by lower costs and ongoing strong margin expansion. Bud Light sales first started to fall following a backlash to a social-media campaign with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. Even more than a year removed from the eruption of the controversy, Bud Light sales are still deteriorating...

But Russia's red-hot wartime economy comes with a price: inflation, which hit 9.8% in September. The price hikes are trickling down to basic food items, with prices of potatoes — a Russian staple — surging this year by 64% as of November 5, according to official statistics. Potatoes' price surge stems from bad weather and the rising cost of production amid a labor shortage and rising wages. It's not just potatoes. The data from Rosstat, Russia's federal statistics service, show that food prices have generally risen across the board this year. In late October, economists on the MMI Telegram channel,...

The competition was founded in 2009 in Ohio and is considered one of the three most prestigious beer competitions in the U.S. alongside the World Beer Cup and The Great American Beer Festival.

KEY TAKEAWAYS: * Although many supplements are claimed to prevent or alleviate the headache, nausea, fatigue, and other uncomfortable symptoms that can accompany heavy drinking, none are backed by convincing evidence. * A novel hydrogel appears to be different. When ingested, it prevents alcohol from entering the blood and stops the compound acetaldehyde from accumulating. * In experiments conducted on mice, animals that drank alcohol and were also fed the hydrogel had much lower blood alcohol levels than mice that only drank alcohol. The mice given the hydrogel were also spared from liver damage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Share Is this the hangover...

Just over one year following Bud Light’s terrible decision to hire transgender influencer and professional toddler Dylan Mulvaney to promote its once pro-America beer, the company's sales are plummeting. Again. According to the first-quarter earnings report released Wednesday, Anheuser-Busch, Bud Light’s parent company, has decreased 9.1% in revenue in the U.S. The news comes more than a year after Mulvaney dressed up as a wannabe Katherine Hepburn with black gloves, pearls and red lipstick in an attempt to help Bud Light sell more beer. Mulvaney was also gifted a custom Bud Light can with his face printed on it, which...

Grocery stores that stock Bud Light are planning to shrink the shelf space allotted to the nation’s formerly top-selling beer — by nearly 20% in some parts of the country — after sales tanked following a boycott over its advertising partnership with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney. The Anheuser-Busch brand — which was knocked off its perch this year by Modello after more than two decades at the top — will be squeezed out as store managers rearrange the alcoholic beverages section to give more precious real estate to better-selling beers, according to Bloomberg News. “Anheuser-Busch’s beers will lose a range...
