Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info In the upcoming episode of Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales, we see Amanda Owen wrestling with her nerves as she confides in her son Reuben about how he's making her feel anxious. Viewers tuning in on Thursday evenings to Channel 5 will be treated to the return of Reuben and his pals for a second series, showcasing their entrepreneurial escapades. On this evening's instalment (3 June), there's tension in the air when Reuben decides to take mum Amanda for a jaunt in an old, somewhat unpredictable motor, leaving her visibly on edge.

More wholesome family fun with the Owens, as Reuben takes mum Amanda for a spin (or two) in his posh new sports car..." with a snippet of the show. Amanda expresses to Reuben, "You're making me nervous!" while an amused Reuben looks forward to their countryside drive, according to Gloucestershire Live, reports the Manchester Evening News. The scenario unfolds with Amanda, shot to fame with ex Clive and their brood on Our Yorkshire Farm, perplexedly asking, "Whose idea was this? !" Reuben jauntily retorts, "My idea!". The episode captures Reuben instructing Amanda to push against the car door to help steer - a moment that sees them both burst into merriment. Their rural romp is interrupted as the car battery dies – anticipated to last a mere quarter of an hour. They roll down to a quiet lane and finally unwind, ending their misadventure. Amanda, besides Reuben, is also mum to Raven, 23, Miles, 18, Edith, 16, Violet, 14, Sidney, 13, Annas, 11, Clemmy, nine, and Nancy, eight, all from her previous relationship with Clive. The 50 year old shepherdess split from her husband, Clive, three years ago after more than twenty years of marriage. They reside at Ravenseat Farm in North Yorkshire, the backdrop for Channel 4's Our Yorkshire Farm. The family now stars in Our Farm Next Door, which follows Amanda and Clive's renovation of a nearby farmhouse in the Dales. Meanwhile, Reuben has launched his own machinery business with the help of his friends. His new series also introduces his girlfriend, Jessica Ellwood, whom he met at a young farmers' convention, as well as some of his siblings.

Fishing and camping trip takes sad turn with 50kg find under sand: 'We couldn't leave it'
A man's fishing and camping trip took an ugly turn after he spotted something unexpected hidden under the sand. Reuben Jacob was visiting a once pristine beach north of Noosa this week, far away from the crowds the holiday town often attracts. At first, it appeared he was just looking at a small piece of clear plastic, but when he tried to pick it up he discovered it was buried deep. 'It was all under the sand. We had to dig it up, because we couldn't go past it and leave it there,' he told Yahoo News. Reuben estimates the sandy plastic weighed upwards of 50kg, making it tough to get off the beach in one piece. 'It was heavy with the sand inside it, we couldn't get the sand out without tearing it into two bundles,' he said. The plastic was likely used in wrapping and had fallen off a ship, then washed onto the sand. But it wasn't the only piece of plastic on the beach. Related: 🏝️ Calls for rule change as Aussie beach problem spirals out of control From large discarded bottles to tiny fragments, there was rubbish everywhere. He collected what he could and piled it into his 4WD, but he couldn't take it all. He's urging anyone driving through Noosa North Shore beach, about 8km north of Teewah, to stop and pick up some of the rubbish. 'It was sad and disappointing. I've been going up this beach for 20 years, and it never used to be like that. It used to be pristine, but it's not now,' he said. 'A lot of the rubbish would be from campers, but also what washes up adds to it. When I've been up before, the bins have been overflowing, so maybe they could increase collection, or even employ someone with a ute to clean the beach.' Details of Reuben's story struck a cord online, with pictures of the plastic attracting close to 1,000 reactions. "It disgusts me seeing irresponsible people leaving rubbish on the beach, especially fishing tackle and wires," one person wrote. "Such a precious area. I have camped my whole life and was always taught to leave nothing behind except footprints," another said. While some called for Noosa Shire Council to clean up the area, it said the part of the beach that was covered in rubbish is managed by the state government. 😔 Search for answers as town buried after mountainside collapses ⛏️ Fears over ancient sites under threat from controversial industry plan 🐗 Bold new national park plan to hunt invasive species Queensland's Department of Environment (DETSI) told Yahoo the amount of rubbish was 'disappointing' and the problem had 'noticeably increased' in the wake of Cyclone Alfred which made landfall in March, with more debris washing up. DETSI said it has led several mass clean-ups around the area, and that it plans to continue to tackle the issue. 'We encourage people to put their rubbish in the bin, or take rubbish with them when leaving, to help us keep our beaches clean for the enjoyment of all,' it said.

People are only just realising where Häagen-Dazs' name came from, and it's NOT because of its ‘Danish heritage'
ICE TO KNOW People are only just realising where Häagen-Dazs' name came from, and it's NOT because of its 'Danish heritage' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PEOPLE are being left shocked after discovering the meaning behind the ice cream brand Häagen-Dazs. If you have ever assumed that it was named after its founders or that it is a Swedish, German or Danish phrase you are mistaken. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 People have been left amazed learning how Häagen-Dazs got its name Credit: Getty 3 Häagen-Dazs isn't named after its founders, or a Scandinavian phrase Credit: Haagen-Dazs Häagen-Dazs was launched in the US by husband-and-wife entrepreneurs Reuben and Rose Mattus in the 1960s. And it turns out that the distinctive name was completely made up and doesn't have any true meaning at all. Reuben created the name himself and wanted it to sound European. He even invented a meaning behind the phrase, claiming it stands for 'the best'. However, the back story behind the invented phrase is poignant. Reuben and Rose are both Jewish-Polish immigrants and decided to come up with a Danish-inspired moniker in tribute to Denmark's protection of its Jewish population during the Second World War. According to Tablet Magazine, Reuben - who died in 1994 - shared: 'The only country which saved the Jews during World War II was Denmark, so I put together a totally fictitious Danish name and had it registered. 'Häagen-Dazs doesn't mean anything. [But] it would attract attention, especially with the umlaut.' He added that he also wanted a name that would stand out in the American market and that people would 'take a second look' at the label and wonder if it was imported. Reuben shared: 'If you're the same like everybody else, you're lost. You can now buy Biscoff inspired Haagen-Dazs ice creams 'The number one thing was to get a foreign-sounding name.' As well as choosing a Danish-sounding name, Reuben also included a map of Denmark on the early Häagen-Dazs labels. Reuben's daughter Doris Hurley recalled in a PBS documentary called An Ice Cream Show in 1996 how her dad sat round the kitchen table coming up with jibberish names for the brand. He eventually settled on Häagen-Dazs due to it sounding 'unique' and 'original.' 3 It turns out that the distinctive name was completely made up and doesn't have any true meaning at all Many Häagen-Dazs fans have admitted they are surprised upon finding out the name had been completely made up. One said: 'I always assumed it was a combination of two German last names. Weird.' Another added: 'I always assumed it was German because of the umlaut.' However, one person pointed out: ''As a Swedish person the name has always bothered me because it doesn't make sense verbally (or grammatically) to put an A after an Ä like that.'

Five secret branding messages you may have missed LOTS of brands have secret messages on their logos - so which ones have you spotted? Amazon Most people either have Amazon Prime and/or regularly order from the site, so are used to seeing the logo. But have you ever noticed the little arrow underneath the word Amazon? It starts at the 'A' and finishes at the 'Z' - showing that they sell everything from A to Z! Toblerone It caused a stir a few years ago when people realised the Toblerone logo - which they'd thought was a mountain - is actually the image of a bear. The reason for this is that a bear is the official symbol of the Swiss town of Bern, the original home of Toblerone. Ray-Ban The brand is arguably one of the most famous sunglasses companies in the world. But have you ever spotted the sunglasses image in the logo? If you look carefully at the letter 'B' in Ray-Ban and tilt your head to the side, you will see it looks like a pair of sunnies. Hyundai You'd be forgiven for thinking the 'H' logo for Hyundai is just meant to be a jazzy letter. In fact, if you look again, you might see that the vertical lines of the H are actually meant to show two people shaking hands - a salesperson and a satisfied customer. Apple Again, one of the most familiar logos in the world. But why does Apple's apple logo have a bite taken out of it? Apparently, it's down to the fact that when the logo is made smaller, they didn't want it to look like a cherry. So having the bite taken out of it means it is always identifiable as an apple.

Best And Worst Deli Meats, According To Experts
Deli meat might be a lunchbox classic, but let's be honest — not all cold cuts deserve a spot between your bread. Some are lean, protein-packed powerhouses that make throwing together a meal a breeze. Others are salt and saturated fat bombs that sneakily contain added sugars. So, how can you tell what's what? HuffPost spoke with three dietitians to break down the most popular picks — and help you build a better sandwich. First, isn't deli meat carcinogenic? From bacon to bologna, processed meat has been on the nutritional naughty list ever since 2015. That's because the WHO classified red and processed meat as a Group 1 carcinogen, citing 'sufficient evidence from epidemiological studies that eating processed meat causes colorectal cancer.' Despite the classification, you don't have to go cold turkey on cold cuts. 'It is possible to occasionally integrate deli meats in an overall healthy and balanced diet in moderation,' said Kayla Farrell, a registered dietitian in Chicago, Illinois. 'For example, one serving (2 ounces or 3-4 slices), once per week or less.' Whether you're packing ham and cheese daily or just a couple of times a month, Emily Villaseca, a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) in Dallas, Texas, said it's important to look beyond the alarm bells. 'The 'carcinogen' headlines are splashy, but they don't give the full picture,' she told HuffPost. 'WHO classifications indicate the strength of the research, not the level of risk.' So with that in mind, go ahead and enjoy your turkey club or Reuben — just maybe not every day. Here's what nutritionists look for in deli meat. 'Instead of focusing on the front of the label (where those health claims show up), I recommend paying attention to the ingredient list and Nutrition Facts panel, especially the sodium and saturated fat content,' Villaseca said. Tricky terms like 'natural,' 'nitrate-free' and 'humanely raised' appear on the front of the packaging and are unregulated, the experts noted. That's why the first step when shopping for deli meat is to flip the package over. 'For deli meats, opt for leaner meat options, like turkey breast or ham, to limit saturated fat,' Farrell shared. 'When it comes to sodium, look for 'no salt added' options that have less than 100 mg sodium per serving. Deli meats can be a sneaky source of added sugars, so look for options without it.' According to RDN Sue-Ellen Anderson-Hayes, owner of 360Girls&Women and B.E.A.T Gestational Diabetes, based in Boston, Massachusetts, one simple method when shopping is to check the % Daily Value (DV) on the Nutrition Facts label. 'Aim for DV (Daily Value) of 5% or less per serving of fat, sodium, and added sugar,' she said. Translation: If the number next to the nutrient is 5% or under, it's a good one to grab. Dietitians rank the top-selling deli meats in the US Farrell and Villaseca ranked the top 10 deli meats by sales in the US, focusing on sodium content, protein, fat, and overall nutritional value. Here's how each stacks up for a 2-ounce serving, starting with the healthiest. 1. Turkey (most popular) Protein: 10 g Sodium: 450 mg Fat: 1 g (lowest on the list) A go-to for the health-conscious, turkey breast came in neck-and-neck with chicken for the top spot. 'Opt for low-sodium versions when possible,' Villaseca advised. 'Terms like 'low sodium,' 'very low sodium,' 'reduced sodium,' 'no added salt' and 'sodium-free' are regulated and indicate a lower sodium option.' 2. Chicken breast (5th most popular) Protein: 10 g Sodium: 400 mg Fat: 2 g This is another lean option, but it can be a bit bland, so bump up the flavor with herbs, mustard or crunchy veggies. 3. Roast Beef (3rd most popular) Protein: 17 g Sodium: 350 mg Fat: 2 g The leanest and lowest-sodium choice of the red meat options, it's a solid pick if you're craving red meat without going for richer options like capicola. 4. Honey Ham (2nd most popular) Protein: 10 g Sodium: 570 mg Fat: 2.5 g This is still relatively lean, but as the name suggests, honey ham contains 2-3 grams of sugar per serving. 'Keep an eye on sodium — check a few different brands and choose the one with the lowest sodium option,' Villaseca advised. 5. Pastrami (8th most popular) Protein: 12 g Sodium: 604 mg Fat: 3.3 g Pastrami is flavorful and protein-rich, but comes with a bump in fat and sodium. 6. Corned Beef (4th most popular) Protein: 15 g Sodium: 765 mg Fat: 8 g (including 3 g saturated fat) Cut from the leaner part of the brisket, corned beef is high in protein, but it's also one of the saltiest options. It's best saved for the occasional Reuben. 7. Capicola (9th most popular) Protein: 10 g Sodium: 540 Fat: 12 g Capicola is more of a charcuterie star than a basic sandwich filler. It's a traditional Italian cured meat (like prosciutto) that's been dry-cured and aged rather than cooked. Its high fat content and marbling give it a chewy texture and rich flavor, making it the perfect pair for crackers, cheese, and other cured meats, rather than as a standard deli slice. 8. Soppressata (least popular) Protein: 12 g Sodium: 960 mg Fat: 14 g 'If you love it for snack plates, just balance it out with fiber-rich sides like whole grain crackers, fruit, or nuts,' Villaseca recommended. 'It's all about the big picture.' 9. Salami (6th most popular) Protein: 12 g Sodium: 995 mg Fat:18 g With a long shelf life and being portable, salami is handy for hikes or road trips. Pair with hydrating fruits like oranges or apples if you're eating it on the go. 10. Bologna (7th most popular) Protein: 7 g Sodium: 750 mg Fat: 16 g Bologna is lower in protein and higher in fat and sodium than other options. 'It's often one of the more affordable choices, which is important to acknowledge,' said Farrell. If you're reaching for bologna, look for brands with shorter ingredient lists or those made with turkey or chicken. Hungry for more?
