On this week's episode and in light of current events, we get into survival food, starting with its history from hardtack and pemmican. Then we move on to the current Meals-Ready-to-Eat (MREs) and how those were developed to what they are today. Plus, we chat about making sure your water supply is good. We then also cast our vote for a question posed to us about pineapple on pizza during our Food Fight segment.

Let's taco 'bout it!

On this week's episode, Sharon is joined by Ike to talk all about crawfish (this is the correct way to pronounce it, of course!), American-style! They give tips on how to catch your own (cat food!) and how to put your own crawfish boil. We also help our Food Fight listener not feel like a lunch mooch.

On this week's episode, Winter is joined by Lee in having a discussion about crayfish and the crayfish parties that are often held in Sweden in August and September. We welcome our special guests, Marcus and Deanne Carlson and Julie Ann and Brandon Lake, for a lively discussion called Crayfish Part 1: Sweden! We learn all about the history of these crayfish parties in Sweden and how to throw one yourself. Also, we help one of our Food Fight listeners get started using her new Instant Pot by first taking it out of the box.

This week, we talk about one of our favorite foods and ingredients: eggs! The incredible edible egg! What came first, the chicken or the egg? The chicken, of course, so we chat about how the chicken was domesticated and how chickens lay eggs. Then we get into the components of the egg, the whites and yolk, and our favorite way of making scrambled eggs. Plus, this week's Food Fight listener needs help navigating the office potluck when food allergies and preferences are on the line.
