    32. Hot Potato! I Dip, You Dip, We Dip.

    How did our favorite lunch accompaniment or late night binge fest come to be? Why on earth were potatoes illegal back in France times? Were the Vanderbilt's really that bad with names? Join us as we pop the top off a fresh can of chips and work our way down to the bottom of the origins of the chip we call potato.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michelle-doll4/support

    31. Bend Your Head Back and Gimme Some Sugar!

    We live in crazy times. FOMO has been replaced with FOBI (Fear of being invited), there are waiting lists to adopt dogs (yay), GameStop was at least briefly on fire in the best figurative way and now for the first time in a loooong time tobacco sales are climbing back up. Resist! And listen to this fun little story about a smoking cessation pioneer and his creation you can still buy today. Check out our instagram @kitchengodspodcast for some great pics of the more collectible sugar delivery systems mentioned in this episode. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michelle-doll4/support

    30. We Are All Children of the Uni-Corn

    This episode is surprisingly bereft of maize puns.  Nevertheless, come gather around the fire and enjoy some popcorn as we tell you the tell of Casimir Funk and his magical mystery vitamins. It's not hyperbole to say that corn changed, nay BIRTHED a nation. From it's humble beginnings as "just a grass" to it's ubiquitous inclusion in what we eat or touch. Without Casimir's influence it, it just might have continued to...KILL.  Dun Dun Dun.

    29. Some Like It Hot, Just Don't Get It In Your Eye.

    Hey Baby, where are you on the Scoville scale? Let's talk about the heat. That spice of life (and food) we all love and crave and some are downright addicted too. Yup, it's pepper time. We'll learn all about the birth of Tabasco Sauce and the peppers that made it all possible. Grab an ice cold glass of milk or wine and hang on. Whatever you do, don't get any on your tender bits. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michelle-doll4/support

    28. The Queen of Harlem Soul (food)

    If you define personal success as owning an entire NYC block, well, good luck to you. If your idea of success is a loving family, giving back to your community and making some of the best soul food this side of the Mason Dixon line, well, that's something to strive for. Sylvia Woods managed to do all of that AND own an entire block of real estate in Harlem which is where Sylvia's restaurant is. Join us on a deeper dive into the timeline to see how she grew up and what exactly she persevered through.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michelle-doll4/support
