Customer Reviews
Wooooot
Always great to hear from the creators, business owners and everyone else in between on this podcast. The questions and engagements are for everyone and not just for folks who have to be “in the know” to understand. You end up leaving the episodes wanting to eat/drink/use everything mentioned.
If you’re a food eater, you’ll like this 😉
Super entertaining, especially if you’re into adventures in food. I can’t help but think some of the guests will wind up like the kid in Into The Wild. And call me crass, but listenership would go through the roof if that happened. Silver linings I guess. Welp, see ya later! ✌🏼
