SALT!
Many thanks for your delightful podcast. Couldn’t stop myself from responding to your season 2, ep.5 discussion of “what did they put in the soup to ruin it?” at the Russels’ grand dinner for the Duke. I’ve seen this idea of intentionally making food taste bad several times in storytelling and literature over the years. Copious over-salting is how it’s done. It will render any dish horribly unpalatable. Arsenic was suggested as a possibility of the offending addition. To me that seems unlikely as a non-criminal antic (over-salting) would have the desired effect, with no risk of anyone getting thrown in the slammer. Anyway, fun discussion. Keep up the great work.

As a Southerner, the hosts personal views of the current south in general have been very insulting, condescending...Read full review »
