We take America's Test Kitchen's inquisitive and relentless approach to telling unexpected, funny, and thought-provoking narratives about food and drink. This is not a recipe show. And this is not a show about celebrity chefs or what they like to eat. Proof plunges into history, culture, science, and the psyche to uncover the hidden backstories that feed your food-obsessed brain. Hosted by Kevin Pang. A production of America's Test Kitchen.

Food not politics
I am a regular listener to Proof and was really disappointed to hear what was sold as an episode on spice was actually a political push for Palestine - I do not have an issue with this but it was so totally anti-Israel - there are two sides to every story people and selling the hardline Palestinian story under the guise of a food podcast is not ok. If you are planning to push a particular political agenda please make sure you are up front with it and try to show both sides of the story. Very unimpressed and will definitely think twice before listening again.
