This New York landmark was voted one of the best places to watch the sunset
Golden hour just got a New York-sized endorsement. The Brooklyn Bridge—a true titan of Gotham's skyline—was recently named one of the top 50 places in the U.S. to watch the sunset, landing at #31 in a national ranking compiled by car rental site SIXT. The list, which analyzed more than 200 scenic spots across the country, weighed everything from TikTok searches and Instagram hashtags to Google trends and air quality metrics. While Wyoming's Calcite Springs Overlook snagged the top spot, New York's most iconic span made a strong showing—and frankly, no one does a sunset strut like New York City. Built in 1883 and long celebrated as a marvel of engineering and Gothic Revival design, the Brooklyn Bridge connects Manhattan and Brooklyn via a pedestrian promenade with some of the best skyline views in town. And when golden hour hits, it's an amber-hued spectacle worthy of a Spike Lee dolly shot. According to SIXT's data, the Brooklyn Bridge garners more than 550,000 monthly Google searches and racks up over 441,000 TikTok searches. That's a lot of people chasing sunset clout—and they're not wrong. As the sun dips behind the Manhattan skyline, the bridge turns molten gold, casting reflections across the East River and lighting up Lady Liberty in the distance. Whether you're biking across its wooden planks, catching the glow from Brooklyn Bridge Park or snapping selfies mid-promenade, there's no bad angle. And science says it's good for you: Studies show that watching sunsets can reduce stress, improve mood and even boost feelings of gratitude. While New York City didn't crack the top 10 overall, the bridge held its own against national parks, remote lighthouses and Hawaiian volcanoes. That's no small feat for a city better known for smog than sunsets.

Shoppers spot all-new Pringles flavours inspired by popular takeaways on sale in supermarket giant
PRINGLES has brought out two exciting new flavours inspired by popular takeaway meals. Shoppers have spotted the two new flavours on Asda shelves, and they're selling for £1.88 a tube. 2 The new flavours are Japanese Style Stir Fry and Turkish Style Kebab. They're part of the crisp brand's limited-edition Passport range, which is inspired by flavours from around the world. Popular Instagram account John's Snack Reviews said the stir fry-inspired crisps tasted like "hot n spicy combined with spicy tomato but mild". On the Turkish Style Kebab crisps, he said: "Think doner kebab, tomato n curry spices." One commenter added: "I got the kebab ones today. I really like them. "Defo more kebab smell than taste. Taste to be is a generic meat taste but I would buy them again." Another person said they had managed to pick up the crisps for £1 in Iceland. More of the Pringles Passport range can be found in Iceland. The other flavours include Chinese Style Sweet & Sticky Wings, French Style Steak Frites and Thai Style Green Curry. They're all currently selling for £1.50, down from their usual price of £1.95. At the start of the year, Pringles brought out a new flavour inspired by the US. The Blazin' Fried Chicken Pringles hit shelves in January. They're inspired by Nashville hot chicken, which is marinated in spices, deep fried, and then coated in cayenne sauce or just cayenne spice. In June, the crisp brand brought out the Flame Grilled Steak flavour. It was previously a convenience store exclusive but has now become more widely available. More new crisp flavours Crisp fans have been treated to plenty of exciting new flavours lately. Walkers revealed its first new Quavers flavour in three years will be in Tesco from the end of this month. The Red Leicester Quavers will then hit other major supermarkets in September. The flavour is already available to buy from Premier stores and Farm Foods. Elsewhere, Discos, owned by KP Snacks, is bringing back its beloved pickled onion flavour after it was last seen on shelves in 2005. The tangy snack will be sold in convenience stores across the UK from August 27, giving punters just a matter of weeks before they're reunited with the flavour. Why are products axed or recipes changed? ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders. Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether. They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers. There are several reasons why this could be done. For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes. Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs. They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable. For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018. It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version. Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year. Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks. While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose.
