Produce Cost Shock: Southern California’s fresh-food bill is rising fast, with tomatoes up 23% year-on-year and overall grocery prices up 2.9%, as farmers cite tariffs, diesel and transport costs squeezing margins. Street-Level Friction: In China, anti-smoking women are going viral for confronting smokers in public, reflecting a sharper social push against tobacco. Global Food Culture: Bill Gates’ long-circulating pick of chicken tikka masala spotlights how Indian dishes keep going mainstream worldwide. Beer Dynasty Fallout: Thailand’s Singha family brewing empire is roiled after sexual-abuse allegations surfaced, prompting the removal of a Singha beer heir from company roles.
