Sonya & Kari are the best. I listen on Sundays while I’m meal prepping for the week and it’s like they’re in the kitchen with me. I half expect them to comment on what i’m making. They each have their own unique perspectives and it’s so fun to listen to them discuss even the smallest details....Read full review »

My wife does most of the cooking, but I desire to carry my weight and give her a break! It can be daunting to learn and improve, but listening to this podcast has helped me feel much more confident about tackling dinner time with confidence and being a more helpful spouse.

I checked out the podcast because I have personally worked as a waiter and bartender with Sonya and Kari, but to be honest don’t consider myself a good cook.

clweger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/22/24
Without checking in with my girls, Kari & Sonya. I’ve had literal, therapy level “aha!” moments listening to this podcast. (I’ve spent my whole life making peace with soggy-sad tofu sludge and all I had to do, this whole time, was lightly dust it in cornstarch? Are you kidding me??) I’m one...Read full review »
The Real Miss Maude via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/21/24
Kari & Sonya are fantastic as a Cooking & Commenting duo. The recipes and culinary advice are always interesting, yet approachable. And they always tie the recipes and food back to the people they love to share it with. An audible delight.
McDweave via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/20/24
I’ve been cooking dinners for many years and after listening to this podcast, I’m always inspired to try a new twist on an old dish. And these young women are just a delight to listen to, they love each other so much!

Honestly, it's like these two got phd's not just in culinary arts, but in how to break the complex down and make it simple. I literally employ their advice every time I listen to an episode. From colorful salads (shred the carrots!) to cookies, it feels like I have two of my best expert...Read full review »

I love Food Friends b/c of how Sonya and Kari make it accessible and exciting to try new things. I’m a very novice person in the kitchen, but have been able to try two corn and one tomato based recipe the last few weeks from listening to S&K and hearing them explain how they do it. It’s so...Read full review »
The Mac Daddy 30 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/07/24
Their friendship and shared bond around a love of food and culture is so comforting and welcoming. I learn so much from each episode but even more than that, I feel like they invite us as listeners to develop our own sense of intuition and understanding of the foods that make us who we are.

This is a great podcast with lots of cooking inspiration. I love the two ladies, who are upbeat, like each other, and are incredibly knowledgeable. I just wish they didn’t upspeak so much - it gets really distracting.
Shannon in Raleigh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/28/24
Really enjoying this. The back and forth conversation of the two ladies makes the show not only helpful in regards to cooking ideas, but fun to listen to. Keeps my attention

I have the absolute privilege of personally knowing, calling her my friend and enjoying her culinary skills of one half of this dynamic duo…and one day I hope to do the same with the other half.

I learn from Sonya and Kari every episode. They keep it fun, relatable, and interesting.

Kari and Sonya are a dynamic duo! You can feel their love for all things food and for each other in their conversations. Their style is kinetic, discursive, and goes deep into their personal experiences. They’re incredible storytellers.
spaghettio junkie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/23
I am so picky with the podcasts I listen to. I hate unnecessary chatter, messy production, and an over reliance on guests to bring interesting content to the microphone. These ladies are so incredibly knowledgeable and charismatic that I’m sure they could create endless episodes and each one...Read full review »
Ahdridri via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/23
I have been listening a lot lately and really love the content! However, I find it nearly impossible to hear the hosts as they talk. I have to crank the volume on my car ALL the way up and even then it can sound incoherent. Can you please think about fixing the audio?

One of the best most addictive podcast, ever listen or be sorry
hahahhahdkkd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/23
Except for true crime, but if you’re looking for that there’s no shortage elsewhere. However, if you happen to like your friends and/or cooking, you’re in the right place. I love the natural flow of conversation and the easy to follow tips and tricks…needless to say, I’m eating it all up.
