From weird baked bean flavors to impossible avocado ripeness, this week's Gripe Report tackles the most relatable food complaints we all experience.
Gulf hostilities flared again on Wednesday, with a missile attack damaging Kuwait’s airport and the US military carrying out strikes near the Strait of Hormuz, as diplomacy between Washington and Tehran showed little progress. The latest flare-up, which sent oil prices up more than 1 per cent, comes with the conflict stalemated in a shaky ceasefire and the Strait of Hormuz largely closed, more than three months after initial US and Israeli strikes on Iran. Flights at Kuwait International Airport were suspended and diverted elsewhere until further notice, the state news agency said, citing aviation authorities, after an Iranian drone and missile attack on its T1 building. The attack caused injuries and severely damaged some airport facilities, it added, but gave no further details. Ministry of defence spokesman Brigadier General Saud Abdulaziz Al-Atwan described the attack as “criminal Iranian aggression which resulted in significant material damage to the building and injuries”. Earlier, the US Central Command said two Iranian missiles shot at Kuwait fell short or broke up in flight, while several ballistic missiles aimed at regional targets failed and three missiles heading for Bahrain were intercepted. Since the conflict began, Iran has repeatedly attacked targets in the Gulf region home to US military bases. Central Command said the US military also downed Iranian drones targeting civilian ships in regional waters and US forces in Kuwait, and carried out strikes on Qeshm Island near the Strait of Hormuz following attempted attacks by Iran. Iran’s state media said the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) attacked the headquarters of the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain, as well as an airbase and helicopters in an unspecified regional country. It sent missiles and drones in response to what the IRGC described as a US attack on a communications tower south of Qeshm. Central Command said all the attacks failed, however, and US forces stayed ready to repel “unwarranted Iranian aggression”. Last week, Iran and the United States said they had reached a tentative initial agreement to halt the war, but they have yet to sign off on the deal. Iranian media said Tehran has not communicated with Washington for several days, but US President Donald Trump said negotiations had not stopped. “The conversations between us have been going on continuously, including four days ago, three days ago, two days ago, one day ago, and today,” he said in a social media post. Discussions on nuclear programme Since mid-March, Trump has repeatedly said he is close to a deal to end the fighting and allow negotiators to tackle thorny issues, including the future of Iran’s nuclear program. Trump has said his top priority is to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Iran denies it is developing a nuclear bomb and says its atomic program is for peaceful purposes. Tehran is seeking access to billions of dollars in oil revenues, waivers on crude exports, a lifting of a US blockade on its ports and continued leverage over the strait, traversed by a fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas traffic before the war. Iranian media said the IRGC’s navy targeted a vessel it identified as the Panaya with missiles in response to what it said was a US attack on an Iranian tanker near Hormuz. “Disrupting the security of the Strait of Hormuz will carry a heavy price for the US military,” media cited the IRGC as saying. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told lawmakers on Tuesday that the US would agree to sanctions relief only if Iran agreed to give up its nuclear activity. “The war is over,” Rubio declared during a sharp exchange with Democratic Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey, who disagreed. Israel keeps up strikes in Lebanon The war has killed thousands since it began on February 28, mainly in Iran and Lebanon, while also causing global economic pain by pushing up energy prices. It also triggered the latest round of conflict between Israel and Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, with Israel pursuing its deepest incursion into Lebanon in 25 years. On Tuesday, Israel kept up strikes on a string of southern towns, Lebanese security sources said, despite a US-mediated partial ceasefire unveiled on Monday. The move failed to reassure many Lebanese, 1.2 million of whom have been displaced, and an Israeli drone over Beirut kept residents on edge on Tuesday.

Political bigwigs on Tuesday sought to garner public support in Gilgit-Baltistan (BG) as PML-N President Nawaz Sharif and PPP Chairman Bilawal-Bhutto Zardari addressed rallies ahead of the June 7 elections. General elections in GB are scheduled for Sunday, after a four-month delay attributed to harsh winter weather. Addressing a public gathering in Skardu, where First Lady Aseefa Bhutto-Zardari was also present, Bilawal called for greater rights for the people of GB. “I have to struggle along with GB’s new generation […] If we have to implement the manifesto of roti, kapra, makaan in its true sense, then we will have to work on three rules — we will have to attain the right to haq-i-hakimiyat (right to govern), haq-i-malkiyat (right to ownership), and haq-i-rozgaar (right to employment),” Bilawal said. He further said, “The struggle of PPP’s new generation will be to get you your right to govern, and that will happen when GB will get the protections, facilities and powers provided in the 18th Amendment.” Bilawal had begun his speech by condemning Israeli attacks on Iran. Recalling the US-Israel’s deadly strikes on Iran, including one that killed students at a school, as well as the assassination of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Bilawal said it did not seem “appropriate to run an election campaign” in an elaborate manner. “I toured GB on foot in the last elections. I wanted to do the same this time,” he said, adding that there was an “air of grief” for the people in GB and him. The PPP chairman praised Pakistan’s ongoing efforts for peace in the region, including the role played by CDF Munir. “It is extremely important that the effort for peace succeeds, because the people of Iran and Palestine and the entire Muslim world are bearing the burden of this war, but at the same time, the entire world’s youth are also facing that burden,” he said, noting the conflict’s economic impact and the resulting inflation. The Bhutto scion asserted that the PPP was the “only party that represents the underprivileged and the poor”. “We first think of the underprivileged, then we ask the developing. We first think of the labourers, then ask the business people. We first ask the farmers, then ask the landlords,” he added. Bilawal emphasised that the country could only develop once the working masses and the youth were economically empowered, claiming that other political parties were in favour of making the affluent wealthier. “Progress is when the farmer gets their hard work’s fruit, progress is when employment opportunities are created for the youth,” he said, recalling that the policies of his grandfather Zulfikar Ali Bhutto “made labourers the owners of mills”. He went on to recall a slogan from the tenure of his mother, ex-premier Benazir Bhutto — “Benazir aye gi, rozgaar laye gi [Benazir will come, and bring employment]” — prompting the supporters to raise the same chants. He also praised his father, President Asif Ali Zardari, for launching the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) during his previous tenure as president. Earlier in the day, ex-premier Nawaz reached Gilgit for a one-day visit and lamented the lack of development in the region. “I am speaking to you after many years. Isn’t that the case? Perhaps you have forgotten me,” Nawaz said while addressing the public in Gilgit, prompting roaring chants in his support. Noting that he was fond of mountains, Nawaz stressed he “wholeheartedly loved” GB. “When I love the area from my heart, then why would I not love the people from my heart? You live in my heart,” he quipped. The PML-N chief then went on to lament the lack of development in the region. “When I saw the condition of the roads after exiting the airport, I cannot even describe it. It hurt me immensely. Where is the Gilgit that I used to know?” he said. “My heart cries on why this was allowed, why the money that should have been spent on you all was not done so,” Nawaz remarked. Noting there were “so many potholes”, Nawaz recalled that the PML-N had in the past worked on constructing roads and asked why the project was not extended to Gilgit as originally planned. “I do not want to speak against any party or government, but my heart urges me to ask them that you got the chance to serve this country, then why did you ignore this area?” the ex-premier asked. He added that the PML-N did not seek votes by criticising other parties, but rather based on the work it did. “The road that I had started was not built up to here, it should have been and then built further till Khunjerab,” he said, highlighting that building the road till Skardu had cost Rs50 billion. “It is the right of the people of GB, not a favour that I am doing to you,” he added. The ex-premier highlighted that the PML-N government had constructed hospitals, power plants and hydel power plants. “Tell me if any other party has even placed a brick here,” he jibed, with supporters responding in the negative. “It saddens me that the airport has remained the same as it was in my tenure,” Nawaz said, pointing out that it had not been expanded and the air traffic to the tourist hotspot had not increased. The PML-N president then assured the GB residents that he would hold a meeting with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and ask him to expand the airport so that commercial jets could operate there. Flaunting the shortened commute time from Gilgit to Skardu, Nawaz said, “We reduced a nine-hour journey to three hours, saving you six hours, making things easy for your kids and families.” The former premier lamented, “Projects are launched here but they are never seen completed.” He highlighted that there was great potential for generating hydel and solar electricity in the region. Noting load-shedding of over 20 hours in winters and of up to 12 hours in summers, he said, “It is unacceptable to me.” Nawaz said that regardless of whether the PML-N wins the elections or not, “we cannot keep you deprived of these things”, vowing to speak to PM Shehbaz about electricity outages in GB. The PML-N supremo said he will urge both PM Shehbaz and his daughter, Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, to visit GB, also pledging to visit the region every two to three months if his party is elected. Nawaz also mentioned his last ouster during his speech, recalling that he had formed a committee as the prime minister in 2017 on GB’s share in the National Finance Commission (NFC) Award. “Do not complain to me. I am not ready to hear this grievance because this is your fault as well, that why you let a person like me be exiled,” he said. “Why did I have to leave the country and go abroad? Why were [we] jailed?” Terming GB the “centre” of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), Nawaz called for it to be developed further, with electric buses launched and hospitals built. He vowed that the cancer hospital built by the PML-N in GB would be expanded. He also advocated for housing loan schemes for the residents of GB and interest-free loan programmes for youth for their businesses. The PML-N president also pledged to have a women’s university constructed if his party got the chance to govern the region. “It is exam day for you three days from now,” Nawaz quipped, referring to the polling day. Nawaz was also set to meet with party ticket holders during his GB visit. Defence Minister Khawaja Asif, Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal, Inter-Provincial Coordination Minister Rana Sanaullah, Punjab Senior Provincial Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb, senators Pervaiz Rasheed and Anusha Rahman, and MPA Kazim Ali Pirzada were accompanying Nawaz, state-run PTV said. Minister for Kashmir Affairs and GB Amir Muqam, Nawaz’s son-in-law retired captain Mohammad Safdar, PML-N’s former GB chief minister Hafiz Hafeezur Rehman and other party members welcomed the PML-N supremo upon his arrival. In a post on X earlier in the day, the PML-N said the Election Commission of GB had issued a no-objection certificate allowing Nawaz to visit GB and “lead his party’s political campaign for the upcoming general elections”. Elected as an MNA in the February 2024 general elections, Nawaz makes rare public appearances. However, he serves as the PML-N’s key decision-maker and as a political mentor to CM Maryam. Earlier in April, Nawaz had vowed that, if elected in GB, the party would focus on development in the region. Saad Rafique calls for ‘comprehensive plan’ for GB’s constitutional status Prior to Nawaz’s arrival, senior PML-N leader and former federal minister Khawaja Saad Rafique addressed a gathering in Skardu, where he emphasised the need to address the issue of GB’s constitutional rights through a “comprehensive plan”. “Till how long will the issue (GB’s constitutional status) remain undecided?” Rafique asked, stressing that while “Kashmir was an important issue, but so was the future of the people of GB”. “The time has come for the parliament to debate the matter,” he said, adding that it was the collective responsibility of all parties, state institutions and security institutions to take GB forward. The PML-N leader further called for an equitable share for GB and Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) in the NFC Award. He also said that Nawaz would announce the party’s “charter” during his GB visit. Noting the lack of development in the region, Rafique acknowledged that “no government will be able to solve everything in five years”. However, he emphasised, a direction for the future could be determined. “The PML-N laid down that foundation in their last tenure,” he added. Recalling that the region had seen tenures of three different parties, he called on the people to “vote for whoever did the most work”. “Seven to eight flights operate from here every day; this can be quadrupled, dams can be made,” Rafique said, outlining potential for “small viable projects to tackle GB’s electricity issues” as well as improved internet and road connectivity in the region.
European luxury brands have sharpened their focus on the United States, with a surge of store openings and fashion shows to lure a new crop of wealthy shoppers enriched by the AI and tech boom and offset weak consumer confidence in the rest of the world. After two years of contraction, the luxury goods sector was showing signs of stabilisation until the Iran war that began at the end of February, disrupting travel and denting luxury spending far beyond the Middle East. And China, the biggest source of luxury sales growth for two decades, is still struggling to tackle deflation and the lingering impacts of a property crisis, so the sector needs rich Americans more than usual. “The US high-end consumer has been much more resilient than we are seeing elsewhere, especially in Europe,” said Marcus Morris-Eyton, portfolio manager at AllianceBernstein in London, adding that the continued AI rally and healthy wage growth have boosted this cohort of spenders. Luxury brands, such as LVMH, Moncler and Gucci, have been quick to respond. Dior and Gucci showed their cruise collections in the US last month and Italian brand Zegna is set to present its Summer 2027 collection on Friday in Los Angeles. Even last year, North America for the first time took the top spot for new store openings, according to real estate firm Savills’ global luxury retail report, which has tracked data since 2016. The report found North America accounted for about 27 per cent of global luxury store openings in 2025, compared with 26pc of openings in Europe and 19pc in China. Globally, new luxury store openings fell to their lowest level since 2020. US represents significant potential The US has fewer luxury stores relative to its numbers of super-rich consumers than China, according to Savills research. “Many brands still view the US as unpenetrated relative to the scale of its wealth base,” said Todd Siegel, Chicago-based president of US retail at real estate firm Savills. The investment in stores is focused not just on major East and West Coast cities. It extends to second-tier states and cities where high-net-worth individuals have moved, attracted by lower tax rates than California or New York, Siegel said. Italian luxury outerwear group Moncler, for instance, has said most of its new stores will be in the US this year. It opened a store in the luxury ski resort of Aspen in January and plans to open its largest flagship store globally on New York’s Fifth Avenue in the second half of the year, as well as new locations in California’s Valley Fair and in Dallas, Texas, among other cities. French luxury group Hermes opened its first stores in Nashville, Tennessee and Scottsdale, Arizona, last year. It plans to open in the Plaza del Lago shopping centre in Wilmette, north of Chicago this summer, and in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, in September. US and part of Asia versus everywhere else Consultancy Bain said the luxury sector reflected a “two-speed world” as the United States and parts of Asia grow, while Europe and the Middle East are impacted by weaker tourist spending in the ongoing Iran war. Most luxury brands do not report US figures specifically, but their first-quarter reports show growth in the broader Americas region was much stronger than elsewhere. Cartier owner Richemont’s sales grew 18pc in the Americas from January to March, the group’s ninth consecutive quarter of double-digit sales growth in the region. The strength of the US luxury consumer has also boosted American groups Ralph Lauren and Coach owner Tapestry whose sales have outpaced rivals. “Our core customers are loyal and resilient,” Ralph Lauren Chief Product & Merchandising Officer Halide Alagoz told Reuters. “What we see so far is that their behaviours are not changing. On the contrary, consumers during these turbulent times want to come to brands that they can trust.” Tapestry CEO Joanne Crevoiserat said there was potential to grow in North America. “We’re building emotional connections and bringing new, younger consumers into the market in North America and beyond,” she said. Morgan Stanley analyst Edouard Aubin said upcoming US IPOs could drive spending on high-end watches and jewellery, but cautioned that US nationals account for about 20pc to 22pc of global luxury spend. “It’s nice, it’s helpful, but you need China to get better as well for the sector to really recover,” he said.
