Unable to reproduce this issue on Windows 10 and Mac OS 10.12.6 on the latest Stable 63.0.3239.132 and Canary 65.0.3321.0 by following the below steps.

1. Launched Chrome and searched for b&b.
2. Could see Chrome showing results for b&b. 
Chrome is working as expected and no issues are observed.
Attached is the screen cast for reference.

Request you to please check and confirm if anything is missing from our end in triaging the issue.

Also request you to please retry the issue on a new chrome profile without any flags/extensions and update the thread with the observations.

Thanks..
