Episode 65 - Black Food edited by Bryant Terry

Tasty Pages: A Podcast From Cooking The Books

Hello and welcome to episode 65 of Tasty Pages, a podcast by Cooking The Books! We discuss 'Black Food', a collection of essays, poetry, artwork and recipes celebrating the African diaspora, edited by Bryant Terry. This is the first release on Terry's new imprint, 4 Color Books. We also chat about our recent visit to the Food & Wine Experience in Minneapolis - which was a bit lacking in the "food" portion. Victoria updates us on her progress as a pottery prodigy. Our show topic is: What are some record album covers with food on them? (We have a blog post on our web site with photos of some.) This leads to a deep dive into perhaps the most iconic example - Herb Alpert's 'Whipped Cream & Other Delights'! Johnny also takes a stroll down memory lane and shares stories about the time his band opened for 70's rock band Head East. We also have an installment of our "Food For Thought: Food idioms explained" as we explore the origins of the phrase "Not my cup of tea". Of course, there's a food joke - two, in fact. Because Victoria hated the first one. Good thing Johnny was prepared with a backup! You can purchase the book at https://amzn.to/3LmjGtE (as an Amazon affiliate, we earn from qualifying purchases).
