The protein premium: how much extra do we pay, and how stupid are we to pay it? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ARE WE EVER going to reach peak protein? Anyone for a Protein Babybel? How about a refreshing glass of Hubba Bubba-flavoured clear whey protein (“an easy-drinking protein option with a nostalgic flavour twist”)?

A few of us tried this in The Journal newsroom this morning; the consensus was that once you got over the clumps of grit floating on the surface and clinging to the edges of the cup, it was basically fi
Everyone is talking about this ad, so does 'outrage marketing' work? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
THE FRAGMENTED NATURE of the internet means that an ad for a US sports prediction market might have been all over the algorithm for some people, such as young American men, while many others would never have laid eyes on it. Not so when it’s a hyper-sexualised campaign starring actor Sydney Sweeney, naked or barely dressed and posing with various sports equipment.

Kids' extracurricular activities: we want to hear your stories (opens the original)
Read excerpt
SOCCER, SWIMMING, SCIENCE clubs, stage school, scouts, Spanish… There’s no end to extracurricular options for today’s children – if their parents can afford it. Even for families for whom cost is not a barrier, the time commitment and transport logistics involved in children’s activities are a big consideration and headache. Many team sports and performing arts classes have morphed over the course of a generation from once-a-week to twice-a-week commitments for even primary school-aged children.
