Have you ever wondered about ranch dressing, english muffins, and jelly beans? We had and we wanted to share what we found out about the history of those foods. It’s some fun stuff, y’all. From cowboy lore, to massive global corporations operating in secret, to ancient foods converted into tiny beans we’ve got you covered. The History of Food segment starts at 37.57 if you want to skip ahead.
We also talk about Neil Gaiman’s new book Norse Mythology, a wonderful article about Dave’s Killer Bread on Modern Farmer (link here), the new Ken doll, and other fun stuff in the first segment. Plus a shout out to one of our listeners. Thank you!!!
