This week, Andrea and Paul bring their discussion back to lead exposure in food. Ancient Romans seasoned their food with lead, and spoiler alert: we are unknowingly doing the same with certain seasonings. We are still cooking with lead, and if you’re a fan of using turmeric, you might want to tune in for this episode.
