Welcome back to the Food For ThoughtCast, today we are talking all about food trucks. When did they start? What are our favorites? On episode 78, Steve is sticking to his sandwich shop, but this time fantasizing about it being on wheels- while Melissa wonders if anybody is doing frozen donuts yet. We are discussing the most popular for us, what's nearby, and the ones that (maybe) don't exist yet. We give a little shout-out to friends and past guests of the show, Team Fat Kid Food Truck -they are working on a new project called The Shmitt Sandwich, once it opens be sure to give it a visit if you find yourself in the 757- basically Norfolk and Virginia Beach, that is. Thanks for listening! Tell us what your favorite food truck is and where we can find it!

Hey there food fans! Welcome back to The Food For ThoughtCast, episode 77! Sometimes we just need to tell you what we ate.

Steve is back from his trip to Pensacola and Melissa is busy being a tourist in her new town. We're talking about amazing sandwiches, seafood, Italian, desserts, and all things tasty. Join us as we recap our week (and weekend) of all the good eats and where to find them.

What's better than checking in with a friend? This is our Seinfeld, the literal episode about nothing ( and everything!). The chefs are playing catch-up with each other today about the food they've been eating, the food they want to eat, and everything in between. Melissa figures out the quintessential things she must try in North Carolina, at least, according to the Internet. We talk about chili and slaw on dogs and the oldest BBQ in the United States. Stephen tackles Terlingua with no Boy Scout cooking badge but surely he has defied the odds. Stephen kisses all the food in his kitchen first to bring out the best flavors. More to come on that but for now enjoy two friends just catching up. We did it first ,Matt Mink!

Hey there food fans! It's time for episode 69 of The Food For ThoughtCast. Today we are talking about sushi. What is maki? Where did sushi come from? When did it become popular? Steve and Melissa basically obsess over sushi, as we both love it. We give some fun facts and also some cooked "starter" options if you're new to it. Also, if you never eat it or don't plan to try it, that's ok- more for us!

Today, we're dishing up hot takes with a side of super distracted silly conversation.
Welcome back to The Food For ThoughtCast, it's time for episode 68! Steve and Melissa are giving their takes on some classic food debates in today's episode. We discuss all sorts of things from pizza ( to fold or not to fold), to peanut butter and jelly, all the way to the right way to pronounce "pecan." It's obviously "pecan", you just read it wrong again. Thanks so much for listening. Find us in all the usual podcast places and don't forget to watch us on YouTube!

That's right, it's a Friday episode drop of your sort-of favorite food podcast because honestly, calendars are hard. Food is so much easier.
We are joined by none other than Chef Dominic Hawkes- a pretty amazing guy we found somewhere on the internet! That's not quite the story, but it's still a meat-cute. See what we did there?
Welcome back to The Food For ThoughtCast Episode 67! I'm not sure what we intended to discuss- but Steve, Melissa, and Chef Dominic went down about fifty rabbit trails and had a great time talking about food and learning about the way he is making a difference in the lives of his students. This guy is great, and so inspirational! Be sure to check out his YouTube channel- @chefHawkes
We are definitely fans!

Don't know your salami from your salumi? Boy are we glad you stopped by!
Welcome back to The Food For ThoughtCast- it's time for episode 66! Tonight we're talking about charcuterie, from 'chair cuit'- French for 'cooked meat'. We cover all of the things that you can pile onto a board- and plenty that you maybe shouldn't. Steve is being a calf's liver apologist, as per usual. But it's delicious. Melissa thinks she's better than you (she's not) and is too good for regular lunch meat (she isn't). Please don't call Charcuterie boards adult lunchables, Prosper Montagne is rolling in his grave. Whatever you do , make it tasty and pretty.

Today we're going on a road trip! Kind of. We each already did. Separately. With food!
Ok now I'm confused.
Hey but anyway-- Welcome back to Episode 65 of The Food For ThoughtCast. Today Melissa and Steve are talking about all of our favorite road trip snacks. Chips, trail mix, gas station coffee, jerky- you name it, anything you can eat in a passenger seat or driver's seat is obviously fair game. We discuss the perils of eating sunflower seeds while driving, getting food all over the car, and whether or not breakfast burritos are worth it. What is the treat you can't live without on a road trip? If you make a stop while on the road, what is the one thing you won't pass up?
Thanks so much for listening!

Fresh off of a storm-induced power outage and finding our way back to very questionable Wifi, it is Melissa and Steve in rare form. Welcome back to Episode 64 of The Food For ThoughtCast! Today we are talking about what to cook when you've got no electricity, which foods don't need to be refrigerated, and the tragedy of folks that don't know how to use a manual can-opener. Now that we have power maybe we can fax them directions. Did we record this in the woods with cans attached to string? Maybe. If there's an echo just consider it double the greatness and fine quality that you're accustomed to with this podcast. Thanks for listening!

"Boil 'em, mash' em, stick' em in a stew" - pommes Anna, scalloped, au gratin, potato pave, mashed, smashed, chips, and fries. Nothing is off limits when this potato episode pops off! Welcome back to The Food For ThoughtCast, it is time for Episode 63! Steve unfortunately hates ketchup, because #rude. Melissa still doesn't like truffles. But they can both agree on The Fisher Price Steakhouse. This episode is off the rails. Potatoes! What else can we say? Find us in all the places and thanks for your support.

We ask each other at the top of every episode: "What is the most amazing thing you ate this week?" This week, though, there was too much to choose from. So many amazing things, in fact, that it became its own episode. Welcome back to The Food For ThoughtCast, it's time for Episode 62! Steve just got back from the Florida Keys, and Melissa did what she does every week--- tried to find all the right food in all the right places! We talk pizza, cheesesteak, conch fritters, pig tails, pork shoulder, and Hemingway's cats. No not for eating, you freak.
Steve's lack of Key Lime Pie disturbs me. Find us in all the podcast places and don't forget to watch us on YouTube! Thanks for listening.

Hey there food fans, yes that is a Lion King reference. But anyway, it's time to talk about meal prep. Steve and Melissa are back with some ideas, tips, tricks, and of course : opinions galore. What do you like to eat during the week? Do you plan ahead? Do you eat breakfast on the go? What is your go-to meal prep strategy or do you just wing it every week? Welcome back to The Food For Thoughtcast- Episode 61! Thank you so much for listening here and for watching us on YouTube. Don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe.

Let's give 'em something to taco 'bout! I know you see what we did there, and we hope after that atrocious play on words, you'll still hunger for this podcast. Also, puns! Welcome back to the Food For ThoughtCast- it's Episode 60! If it is of the tortilla persuasion- we're talking about it! Steve and Melissa chat it up about all things al pastor, puffy, choco, and fish. We gab and dish about we think does and does not belong in a taco. At the end of the day if tacos are wrong, we just don't wanna be right.
