Breast milk-flavored ice cream hits the market. Where can you buy a scoop?
At one point or another, most of us have tried breast milk as babies, though few remember how it tastes. So Frida Mom and OddFellows Ice Cream partnered together to jog our memories — like it or not — with a strangely familiar taste: breast milk-flavored ice cream. 'Our ice cream is lightly sweet, a little salty, with hints of honey and a dash of colostrum,' Frida Mom says in a description online. And, no, it's not really made with human breast milk. But the ingredients mimic the sweet, salty, creamy and umami flavors of real breast milk. A pop-up location opened at OddFellows Ice Cream at 44 Water Street in Brooklyn, New York City, where curious buyers can try a spoonful for themselves. The pop-up will run from Aug. 5 to Aug. 10. Free scoops are also being given from noon to 1 p.m. daily 'while supplies last,' Frida Mom said in an Instagram post. Anyone can order the 14-ounce tub of the oddly nostalgic sweet treat online for $12.99. It can be shipped to any state in the U.S. except Alaska and Hawaii. Dozens of people turned to Frida Mom's Instagram comments to share how they feel about breast milk-flavored ice cream. 'They turned the liquid gold into ICE CREAM !?!?' one person commented. 'Isn't all ice cream technically breast milk,' someone else said. 'So it's just … cow breast milk? A little relieved and a little mad,' one person said. 'I hear Oreos are good for milk production ☺️ in case you want to throw in some flavors,' another person wrote.k

Chase Daniel breaks down training camp film of Broncos QB Bo Nix
Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has been honing his craft in preparation for the 2025 NFL season, and the experts are taking notice. Former NFL quarterback Chase Daniel recently attended Broncos training camp alongside The Athletic's Diana Russini, and he was pleasantly surprised with the progress Nix has shown from 2024 to now. "I'm telling you, Bo Nix looks excellent," Daniel said on his YouTube channel. "He's ready to make a huge jump into year two." In his eight-minute assessment of Nix, Daniel complimented Nix's quick footwork, crisp passes on both downfield and intermediate throws and his improved mechanics after working with throwing guru Tom House. For example, at one point while looking at a clip of Nix taking a dropback, Daniels remarked, "That's the quickest five-step drop you could possibly take." As a former quarterback himself, Daniel then took viewers through why he likes what he sees. "I like these type of drills; this is really cool. (It is) a little peek under the hood of how things are made in a perfect throw," said Daniel. Daniel reviewed about 10 throws from Nix, showing how his game has taken a dramatic step forward going into 2025. "I am bullish on the Denver Broncos," said Daniel. "I think they have everything they need." Fans will get their first look at Nix's growth when Denver takes on the San Francisco 49ers in their preseason opener on Saturday (view the full preseason schedule).

Why Did Paige DeSorbo Leave ‘Summer House'?
Fresh off her Las Culturistas Culture Award win for the Allison Williams Cool Girl Award, Bravo star Paige DeSorbo is revealing why she made the decision to leave Summer House after seven seasons on the reality show. For the better part of a decade, fans have tuned in to see Paige and her Summer House co-stars drive out to the Hamptons on summer weekends to party, drink, fight, and hook up—your classic reality TV drama. And viewers were devastated when, earlier this summer, Paige announced that season 9 would be her last. 'Like all good things (and some bad decisions), it's time for this chapter to close,' she wrote in part in an Instagram post announcing her decision, adding, 'You haven't seen the last of me, I promise.' At the time, it wasn't clear what exactly Paige would be doing instead of Summer House, but now we have a little bit of a clearer picture. 'When it came time to start thinking about the summer, I really just had a moment where I was like, 'Wait a minute, I can't go film a TV show,'' Paige said in an interview with Larry Crespo's Bravo by Gays podcast, explaining that she's simply too busy to add filming a reality show to her already very busy schedule. 'This past spring, I was like, 'I really need time off.' I don't physically think I could film Summer House.' The decision to leave Summer House did not come lightly and was made after 'months and months of thinking,' Paige said, though she did have a feeling that season 9 would be her last when she finished filming in 2024. 'I definitely felt different leaving last summer. There was something where I had this gut feeling where I was just like, 'This is probably the last time I'll ever leave this house,'' she recounted. Instead of spending the summer filming, Paige has spent the last few months promoting her sleepwear line Daphne, while co-hosting her podcast Giggly Squad and balancing other work commitments. And it sounds like she doesn't regret opting out of partying with the Summer House crew. 'I wouldn't have been able to come this summer and be truly authentic,' she told Bravo by Gays. 'I've worked so much this year. I don't want to go out on a Friday and Saturday night. It's not my vibe anymore.'
