Coca Cola: Why You Should Put Salted Peanuts in Coke; Ben’s Big Mistake

October 23, 2023 by Emily Naismith in Snack

Coke is one of the greatest drinks in the world – no argument. But there is a salty improvement you can make with the addition of peanuts (don’t worry we’ll explain). Also in this episode Ben makes a big mistake (in the eyes of Em, anyway) and we want to know if you agree he made a grave error of judgement.

Raspberry: What If They Work In Twisties? The Great Iced Vovo Conspiracy

October 16, 2023 by Emily Naismith in Ingredients

What happened to Iced Vovos? We have a story to tell and it’s not what you think! We try potentially the last bag of Raspberry Twisties left in the nation and a whole range of “blue raspberry” flavoured snacks to get to the bottom of what the hell it actually is. There’s also some nostalgic jelly cakes and a little hack to stop your raspberries growing mould the second you get them home.

🍝Jaclyn Crupi Makes Pasta By Hand and Owes It All To Her Nonna

October 09, 2023 by Emily Naismith in Bites

Pasta pals, this is for you! (Especially if you want to find out the ultimate pasta shapes for any kind of dish.) We chat to proud Italian-Australian pasta maker and devotee Jaclyn Crupi about pasta dough, shapes and of course, what lurks in her freezer (and yes, it’s also pasta related). She’s just written an incredibly inspiring book called Pasta Love, which is a love letter to pasta and those who make it. 

This episode is part of our Ingredipedia Bites rapid-fire interview series (basically a guise to snoop inside our favourite foodies' kitchens). Main ingredient-based eps are released every other week.

Olives: Should Olive Brine Replace Gatorade? Why Do Martinis Have Olives?

October 02, 2023 by Emily Naismith in Ingredients

What the hell gave pimento the right to be featured in the olive emoji? Should you drink olive juice after a run instead of sports drinks? Who put olives in martinis anyway? So many olive questions in this salty little episode. We also talk about the best snack in the entire world (featuring anchovies, obviously) and find out which incredible country eats over 10 kilos of olives per person a year (it’s not who you probably think).

🥣Weet-Bix: Is It Ever OK To Eat Them Dry? And How They’re Religious

September 16, 2023 by Emily Naismith in Icons of Australian Food, Ingredients

We are divided on whether it’s ok to eat Weet-Bix sans milk – where do you stand? There’s a world record attempt, truckie food and some real exposés in the fourth episode in our Icons of Australian Food series. Em interrogates her childhood to get to the bottom of a religious Weet-Bix tinged memory and Ben goes deep on ad jingles and finds some truly scary stuff.
