that's the google search app, not the chrome browser. I don't use it, but i bet it caches crap it thinks you might be interested in. I would recommend just using a standard browser like chrome etc and navigating to google on the web when you need it

I’ve got Google and Chrome now.

Is their any benefit in swapping to Chrome though ?
