Hungry for a Podcast?
Listen to this week's Podcrapular. We talk far too much about comfort foods and what I like to call fetish foods (Krispy Kreme, Yoo-Hoo, etc.).
In yet another lame attempt to get the people to listen, interact, and even encourage others to listen to the show, we spend a lot of time trash-talking foods that inspire an obsessive love in people (those fetish foods). Well, I trash talk some of those foods.
I pull out the big guns like Krispy Kreme doughnuts, Yoo-Hoo, Mallomars, Nathan's Hot Dogs - you know, the foods that inspire people go go bat-shit crazy over. The foods that some people cross thousands of miles to eat. The foods that get written into movie scripts because so many will feel a cosmic connection.
Golfwidow? She pulls out Chef Boyardee and Kraft Dinners.
HUH?
Are there really people out there who are obsessed with Chef Boyardee and Kraft Mac & Cheese? No way. She must be high, right? I know she was on pain killers when we recorded the show so certainly her mind must have confused "Kraft Dinners" (not a fetish food) for "White Castle Hamburgers" (a TOTAL fetish food).
I was waiting for my partner to chime in with an argument about store bought vs. home made ice cubes next.
I always leave room for me to be completely wrong about any subject. It does happen far too often for me to truly believe. So I welcome comments and other discussion about favorite comfort & fetish foods from my readers, and our listeners. Here are a few places to leave your thoughts.

Of course, within the confines of this week's show there is one thing I will not concede defeat to with regard to food. Be sure to listen to the ridiculous story of how they prepare & deliver pizza in Idaho and get back to me. I'd relay the story here, but really, I'm doing everything I can to get people to listen to the show. Teasing you is among the ways I will achieve this goal.

I've only ever had the frozen White Castle burgers, so I didn't feel like a proper authority on the subject.
(I love them, though. Sue me.)

I actually love both your food lists. And GW, I consider Chef Boyardee comfort food.

I listened, I laughed, I called. My work here is done.
I have never had Yoo-hoo. It's a chocolate flavored...drink. It's not milk? Just chocolate drink??
what the hell???
But if you visit the website (drinkyoo-hoo.com) you can see that they have lots of other flavors too. Like Cookies and Cream... flavored, drink. I like my flavored drinks to be fruits or colors. Like the red flavor of any juice is good. But brown flavor?? um, no.
