Kevin and Ursula Eat Cheap

So Shep has been going on about how chickweed is a "nutrient dense super-food" any time Ursula weeds the garden. And then a recipe came across a local mailing list for "chickweed fritters" and I knew the thing to do was give them the recipe, press record, and get as far away as possible. This is the result.  No people were harmed in the production of this podcast. It might have been easier if we were. 

Shepherd and Ursula made a casserole. They called this "Fuck it, we're making Casserole" but they don't post the episodes, so too bad. Anyway, this is what they're doing for social isolation. Send help for the rest of us. 

It has been a week of self isolation, and what do we have? Beer, pizza, dried squid, and spicy dried mini-shrimp! And that is just the beginning this week, since we have a whole lot of stuff to get through before the world ends!  We'll keep doing this even in a pandemic, because We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

This started out as "we have eaten a lot of ham so we will do a short non-episode filler show" and then  things kind of got out of hand. So we ate some chips, drank some beverages, and an hour and a half later, here we are. We hope you enjoy it, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

It's a new year, but the same old show where we eat things that are, for the most part, better left un-eaten. We have multiple types of cola-flavored candy, sour apple pop-rocks, multiple breakfast cereals, and the horror of all horrors, DURIAN MOCHI. All that and more as we head toward the jiggly extravaganza that is episode 300, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

Shepherd was in the mood to cook for us, and had English Beakfasts on her mind, so we woke this morning to the smells of sausage, bacon, fried bread, fried mushrooms, baked beans, and fried tomatoes. Sadly, we could not find a source for black pudding, otherwise we'd have had that too. Of course, we had to have some mimosas as well, because you can't eat all that without a something to wash it down. So food, good company, and good discussions when We Eat It, So You  Don't Have To! (We're really going to need a new tagline soon...)  

The countdown is on to the show change, so we have a whole bunch of stuff to get to before our digestive systems take a well deserved retirement from stunt eating. And this week we have some stunts, let me tell you. Hot pepper giant gummies? You bet! Bob Ross Energy Drink? You know it! Questionable flavored chips? OF COURSE! And the most controversial thing in our "to eat" pile : Pumpkin Spice SPAM. Only six episodes left until we can no longer say "We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!"

We have a house full of guests: the Shepherd, Bruce, Tina, and Cassandra Khaw. And when Shepherd and Kevin found out that many of them had not had a McRib sandwich, well, that had to be corrected. A short episode this week, and some of us have many, many regrets, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

Have you ever looked at something and gone "This is a TERRIBLE IDEA but I'm going to do it anyway?" That was what Kevin was thinking when he saw the box of "World's Hottest Ramen" in a store in New Mexico. Along with the burning (sorry) question posed by that, we also have beer, cider, mead, snacks from Israel, frozen pizza, weird gummies, and a whole bunch of other things this time when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

So now that we are recovered from our various summer travels, Kevin is nearly recovered from his most recent oral surgery, AND we have some fun new toys to play with, we're back. New toys you ask? An Air Fryer and a Combo Grill/Smoker! So tonight instead of torturing ourselves with questionable foods, we have smoked ribs, grilling cheese, corn on the cob, and cider. We'll talk about the most recent travels, what to use an air fryer for, and general updates. All that and some more, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To - but in this case, you really WANT to!
