In this podcast, Tu and Preeti discuss Tu's upbringing in Oakland, the profound influence of his mother, and the deep connection between food and memory. Tu shares the stories behind his mother's banana bread pudding recipe, the impact of food insecurity on his life, and his efforts in advocating for universal school meals.
