Episode 143: Comfort Food Personalities - Chef Boyardee and Orville Redenbacher

Today we continue our conversation about food products named for real people. First, we get a little saucy with our Italian buddy Chef Boyardee. Then we grab some popcorn to go with our pop culture as we get buttered-up with our old friend Orville Redenbacher. These two personalities have been part of our households for years living in our cupboards and on our kitchen tables, a couple faces grinning back at you representing the great American success story.

Today we continue our conversation about food products named for real people. We've moved out of the restaurant and into the grocery store to see what pop culture deliciousness awaits.

First, we get a little saucy with our Italian buddy Chef Boyardee. Then we grab some popcorn to go with our pop culture as we get buttered-up with our old friend Orville Redenbacher. These two personalities have been part of our households for years living in our cupboards and on our kitchen tables, a couple faces grinning back at you representing the great American success story.

So order up a couple of dirty pasta water martinis, dig the butter out of the fridge and don't forget the can opener. Join us for a healthy meal at our reserved table back here in the bar.
