Dickie the Dandy sticks a feather in his cap and calls it...MACARONI [and cheese]! 

Our story will take us through the wheatfields and dairy pastures of history in search of macaroni and cheese's origin story. Whether you enjoy the boxed version or love putting together a casserole of the stuff, you'll no doubt find new inspiration and appreciation for this ever-so-comforting, ooey-gooey culinary masterwork.

You'll meet a plagiarizing legend of domesticity in London, Europe's first celebrity chef of the 14th century, as well as an enterprising, Depression-era salesman from St. Louis.

News du jour is about microplastics, sorry in advance, and we'll include a recipe card here in the show notes if we caught your attention with the Modernist Cuisine mention!
