Today we're talking about fad diets, and Winter has a quiz for Sharon about the crazy diets that are out there, while Sharon talks about the Whole 30 diet. We also help out another listener get into her wedding dress during our Food Fight.

We're practicing safe lunch and using condiments today (ha ha!). We delve into the history of ketchup and the well-designed Grey Poupon bottle and ad campaign in today's episode. We also help one of our meat-eating listeners figure out how to cook for his vegan girlfriend in the Food Fight Segment.

We're talking about pies today. It all started with the Pi Day Party, and we go on to the what makes a good pie crust, the Maillard Reaction, the best fillings for pies, and the Natchitoches Meat Pie Festival. We also help one of our listeners with a picky eater in her life during our Food Fight segment.

Sharon Titus and Winter Redd are introducing who we are and what this podcast is all about. On Hungry Squared, we're going to be talking about the nerdy side of food: science, design, and history. Are you ready?
