Our Favorite Dishes - Episode 028: Spaniards Throwing Things - La Tomatina
In preparation for a new season of the Smörgåsbord Podcast, we're reliving some old episodes of the show.
This week, we look back at the time when Angel and Mik discover the largest food fight in the world, La Tomatina!
In today’s episode of Smörgåsbord, Angel and Mik talk about the largest food fight in the world, La Tomatina! They discover it’s simple origins and how the festival works today.
They also talk about Instagram filters and Valencia, the region, not the filter. Angel also talks about La Tomatina in movies that feature Kevin, not our resident turtle.
If you want to share how you will do your own wine festival at home, remember to use the #pandemictomatofight and tag us @geekhappynetwork on Instagram.
