Which underrated biscuit is the ultimate nanna bikkie? Is white chocolate even chocolate? And more importantly, does it even matter? Warning: Ben gets fired up in this episode. Whether you’re pro or anti-Caramilk, there’s more than enough chocolate (ok “chocolate”) to go ‘round.

We commit some heinous crimes against Pringles in this episode, and we will not apologise! We also speak to Australian royalty: the alien from Smith’s chip ads in the ‘80s and ‘90s (you know, “CHIPPIES!”).
We also taste some unusually flavoured chips (including a little ‘duck tongue’ number) and make some delicious chips using 1980s technology.

What is the weirdest thing you’ve ordered from a fish and chip shop? Trust me, what we try in this episode is stranger: straight-up unhinged… and delicious!

In this short and snacky Burger Rings episode, Em shares her opinion on engagement rings and whether or not Burger Rings featured in hers while Ben turns his focus to fried chicken to see if Burger Rings are any better when seared onto a bird with hot oil.

Culinary journalist and presenter Sofia Levin has eaten her way around the world and wants to tell you what the best potato chips in the world are. This is a pretty condiment-heavy episode, which makes sense because Sofia treats her condiment collection like precious heirlooms, which we respect greatly. There’s eggs, anchovies and caper berries too!
Sofia’s website and newsletter Seasoned Traveller has so many incredible food tips if you’re still hungry after listening. You can follow her eating exploits on Instagram too (@sofiaklevin).
