☆ These People Are Responsible for the Cranberry Sauce You Love to Hate
  + stars: | 2023-11-17 | by ( Ben Cohen | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Forget turkey. And if we’re talking cranberries, we have to start with Ocean Spray’s canned, jellied cranberry sauce, that jiggly staple of the Thanksgiving table. Somehow this cylindrical blob of sweet, glistening, ruby tartness has become synonymous with America’s most gluttonous day. You know it and love it, unless you hate it, in which case you might use homemade sauce cooked with some of the trillion cranberries that the company’s owners grew. Either way, Ocean Spray wins.

There’s a story on page 845 of Barbra Streisand ’s dishy new memoir that is so unbelievably Babs that it would be hard to believe if it were about anybody else. She’s at home watching the television premiere of “The Prince of Tides,” the 1991 film she directed, produced and starred in. Every time the movie goes to commercial, the volume gets cranked up way too loud. So she calls NBC and asks to speak with the network’s sound engineer. Then she persuades him to lower the volume on the commercials by two decibels.
