Mushrooms!
Monday, 15 February, 2021
This was out October live show, so we talk about Halloween and Daylight savings. I didn't edit it out because why not celebrate spooky halloweeen all year. Slimy otherworldly organism that thrive on death or delicious forest floor specimans that contribute to a vibrant ecosystem? No need to debate -- for our Halloween MSG, we'll explore all sides of your favorite fungi! We'll explore the darker side of mushrooms and their presence in historical folklore and fiction. You'll learn why Toad from Mario Kart is one of the most deadly mushrooms on the planet, what causes a "fairy ring," and when "toadstool" became an insult. Then, if you aren't scared off just yet: basic lessons for mushroom foraging! Culinary historian Sarah Lohman and resident food scientist Jonathan Soma are the Masters of Social Gastronomy. Each month, they fearlessly take on a curious food topic, breaking down the history and science behind what we eat. This month's show: The Oldest and the Newest Foods!
