Hi, Boys and girls are all fired up.

Hi everyone, you're listening to Radio Cherry Baumond, coming to you from Newsstand Studios at Rockefeller Center in the heart of New York City. I'm the founder and editor of Cherry Bomb magazine. Today's guest is Kathy Strange, the ambassador of food culture at Whole Foods Market. That's a great title, right? Kathy says everyone who loves food is an

ambassador of food, and I couldn't agree more. Kathy has worked for Whole Foods for decades,

and she's had a front row seat to all the changes in grocery and consumer packaged goods,

or CPG, which is what folks in the industry call all the food and drink products that fill

the shelves of your favorite stores and drink products that fill the shelves

of your favorite stores. Previously, Kathy was the global cheese buyer for Whole Foods,

and you would be pressed to find someone more knowledgeable about the world of cheese and cheese

makers. Kathy is a fascinating, thoughtful human, and I'm so glad I had the chance to talk to her.

Stay tuned for our chat.

Today's episode is presented by Carrey Gold. Have you noticed that butter is having a moment?

I've seen handbags sculpted out of butter, little couches made from butterpats, tiny butter cherubs,

even butter-colored nail polish, and fashion. The world is butter obsessed. But you know who loves butter more than

most? The folks at Kerrygold, they've been perfecting their craft for decades, using milk from

Irish grass-fed cows to create their famously rich, creamy golden butter. There's a reason

Carriegold is beloved by everyone from home cooks to the world's top culinary creatives. It's just better butter.

Carriegold salted pure Irish butter has a butterfat content of 80%, while the unsalted version

has a butterfat content of 82%. And that beautiful yellow color, it's thanks to beta carotene,

found naturally in milk from grass-fed cows.

Want to get in on the fun?

Get yourself some Kerry Gold and whip up some flavored compound butter, fill some fancy butter molds,

or sculpt one of those gorgeous butter mounds for your next dinner party or get-together.
