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 "F**k 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...

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...

The or friend Natalie, spreadsheet wizard and Canadian Amazon, is in town for her yearly visit, so it's time for a celebration! Or at least alcohol, as we liberally apply it to handle beef stew in a can, shrimp and grits from the microwave, and candies from Russia. Also, Ursula argues on the internet, Lis explains why punching isn't always a bad thing, and Kevin hits one of his limits.  All that and more when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

We were at the liquor store to pick up some rum, and then we saw some Bourbons that we just couldn't resist. Were they bargains, or just cheap? We'll find out! We'll also check in with a new cup noodle flavor, some special treats from the UK, a churro cereal, and UNICORN PUDDING! Seriously, that stuff is so pink it makes your eyes hurt. All that and a bunch more, when We Eat It So You Don't Have To!

We're back! And boy do we have a lot of stuff to go through! Most of it is chips, and chips often require some assistance to bring out their full flavor. Speaking of assistants, Lis is also back to hang out and help with the food and cider. OK, and the beer, because it IS coffee flavored beer.  All that, plus some discussion of what happened in Tibet and why we may never eat yak again, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

By the time you get this, Ursula and Kevin will be in China, and Lis will be watching the animals. But before we left, we had to try the one absolutely necessary food to take with us : coffee. We compare and contrast several different kinds of instant coffee before deciding which one goes in Kevin's bag so he doesn't go into a lacking-coffee-induced rage on the road. If we don't make it back because of a yak-related mishap, remember that We Ate It, So You Didn't Have To.

This week we have a special guest - our friend Neolithic Shepherd has come down and OF COURSE we have treated her to a "special" meal. We have the new Lay's flavors for 2019, two (TWO!) cans of haggis - both vegetarian and offal - and bunches of other things just for her. Alas, we did have a recording problem and lost 20 minutes of eating, but honestly, you still get haggis, so it's not that big a deal.  We also have beer, cider, and drunk Kevin, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

Last weekend, Kevin was the host and chairperson for Dorsai Thing 2019 in Raleigh NC. This means that all the perishables that were unclaimed came back to our house, including a bunch of alcohol. This included a margarita mixer in a can and several pints of alcoholic ice cream. We know what you are thinking, because we thought it too :  "Alcoholic Ice Cream? What Madness is this?!?" We felt it was important that we share this experience with all of you, our wonderful listeners.  Oh, and...

I gotta say, there was a lot of good stuff to start with this time, and it probably lulled us into a false sense of optimism. Not to worry, though, as some things came along that, as we say, "makes for great radio." This time we have some craft ciders, craft beers, cranberry wine, new frozen products, limited edition Oreos, Ursula's Rant on the band Rush, Liz's unpopular hot-take on music, and then a LONG discussion of influential bands.  All that and a whole lot more, when We Eat It, So You...

Oh the things we do for you, internet. See, we stopped by a Total Wine on Friday and they had some really cool things in the beer & cider aisles. Like a Chocolate Stout and Tangerine Tumeric Cider. And one made with hominy grits. So we figured we should call up Lis and see if she wanted a "free" meal and free laundry, which means she also got to experience all the fun things we had to eat and drink this week. Pork BBQ Pizza, Kettle Chips, Bacon Chips, and frozen crab poppers, oh my!  And...

Do you see that picture? The things we eat for your entertainment? Oh yes, there are Carrot Cake Oreos. There are Edamame flour crisps. There are frozen biscuits with gravy inside. And there is a whole lot more. There is a discussion of Ursula's ability to write certain kinds of scenes. There is mead, beer, and something we just have to add water to. And so much more, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

Welcome to the first episode of KUEC in 2019! Lis is back, and Kevin had a birthday, and we have terrible food! This includes gluten free "bagels,"  vegan gluten free sandies, bloody orange cider, and chocolates that weren't terrible! We even have Bantam Pancakes and Drunken Noodles! Find out about all that and more, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

We got a box in the mail from our friend the Shepherd, and is was full of spiders. Literal spiders, made of sugar. Which we thought was very cool, until we found the tin under them and found it contained Dried Salted Tarantula. So this box was more than just a cool gift, it was a challenge.  This week, we have not only that, but three beers, a Mexican-inspired pizza, LOTS of sweets, and the usual shenanigans, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

So we got a box. Actually, we received several boxes, but one of them was full of the most interesting candy canes. And, fools that we are, we actually tried them. Every wonder what Clamdy Canes taste like? We do now. We also know about a variety of stroopwaffles, crackers, Oreos, and even a frozen mac & cheese. So join us this week, when we make those questionable life choices and even more about BBQ Crickets, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

Honestly, this was almost titled "We Shall Never Speak of This Again" because somewhere in here is a food that we will not mention ever again, and are busy obliterating our memories of the existence of it. In fact, this is a food that is only rumored, much like the supposed film between "Highlander" and "Highlander 3", and the often discussed but mysteriously absent sequel to the "Mortal Kombat" movie.  In fact, you really should be glad We Eat It, So You Don't Have To.

Kevin has been avoiding this for MONTHS, and finally broke when there was nothing else new in  the co-op beer cooler. OK, Ursula slipped it into the basket when he wasn't looking, and now he's stuck with it. Yes, this week we try Kombucha beer, along with a whole selection of things that came in boxes from all of you.  Hear it here first, when We Eat It So You Don't Have To.
