This week, Winter's husband, Lee, is her guest host since Sharon is out, and we're talking about knives and going into the design and types of knives out there. We also give our recommendations for a few types of knives to have in your block. We also help a Food Fight listener not get annoyed with his friends on Facebook.

We are diving in deep about the interesting and sometimes drama-filled histories of accidental food inventions, including Coca-Cola, the sandwich, saccharin, the Turducken, and for a bonus, the microwave. We also help a listener not be a passive-aggressive note writer who wrote in a Food Fight question asking about odoriferous office etiquette.
