About this listen
They say you are what you eat.
In which case, some people are toxic pufferfish liver. Others are a turkey head sewn onto a pig's butt.
Food is everything to us: life, culture, and community. For millennia we've put all kinds of things in our mouths, some of them deadly, some which seem - to modern eyes and ears - uh, questionable?
Today, as we dig, Jolts & Zing ask:
- What celebrity fad diet did Lord Byron introduce?
- What disgusting meal do George Washington and Warner Herzog have in common?
- Why did Fidel Castro breed a super cow?
Open wide! Here comes the plane! Full of wild weird food. Let's Get Shocked!
