    Food Court: Vodka

    Today in the Food Court, Ted and Aseem debate the fate of that most neutral (insipid? invitingly plain?) of grain spirits: vodka.

    Curry

    Curry is a spice, right? Or is it a soupy gravy-based dish? The fact is, nobody agrees on anything about curry (except maybe that it's the name of a great basketball player). Learn where this delicious and dizzyingly varied dish comes from-- and what it's evolved into-- as Ted and Aseem explore delicacies as varied as baingan bharta, bunny chow, and whatever "buss-up shut" is.

    Quiz: Know Your Scottish Food

    In some countries, a dish's name is liable to be as bland as its taste. Not so in the wilds of Scotland. Join us for our very first quiz episode, in which Aseem and special guest David strive to guess what the sonorous Scots could possibly mean by such fare as "festycock" and "cullen skink." (Not to be listened to mid-meal, except by those with strong stomachs.)

Find out what James Bond and your favorite Presidents ate for breakfast, learn what people have eaten for the Most Important Meal Of the Day through history, and be thankful you're not friends with Thomas Aquinas, who would probably disapprove of you, no matter what you eat in the morning.
