  • Spices to Flavor the Moment with Mark Jacobs, Chairman of Watkins, the 150-year-old Spice Company
    Apr 23 2024
    We are spicing things up with Mark Jacobs, Chairman of Watkins, award-winning extracts, spices & herbs, seasoning blends, grilling rubs & marinades, artificial dye-free baking decorations, and more crafted in the USA since 1868; the company with the first ever documented money-back guarantee (talk about trusting your spices!). Mark divulges the delicate (and sometimes dangerous) process of sourcing the finest vanilla beans in Madagascar and explains why vanilla can be so darn expensive, only sometimes. But vanilla's not all they offer! Mark shares surprising health benefits of spices, and spills the tea on how Watkins keeps their huge variety of spices bursting with flavor - including a tip to properly storing your spices at home. Speaking of unique offerings, Watkins is now in the Bourbon business, and we learn all about the intricacies of this new exciting vertical for the brand. Mark even reveals the one spice that mysteriously eludes Watkins (and why), and shares exactly what to look for when you're on the hunt for the perfect spices. Whether you're a spice connoisseur, a curious cook, or a foodie, this episode is packed with flavor-boosting tips and fascinating facts about food and the brand leading the way for delicious flavors. - Did you know host John was the person who introduced Harissa from Tunisia to the U.S. 15 years ago? Or that Himalayan salt comes from Pakistan? - Tune into the episode for more. -- This season of Foods That Matter is presented by Watkins.

  • Chicken Confidential with Blue Apron Co-Founder, Matthew Wadiak
    Apr 9 2024
    We're cracking open the "chicken industry" egg and breaking down why it's vital to care about the chickens we're eating. Host John Robert Sutton speaks with Matthew Wadiak (Co-founder and Former COO of Blue Apron, Former Founder/CEO of Cooks Venture, and Board Member at Goodwill International) to help us better understand one the most eaten protein in the world, chicken, and how to make better decisions around its consumption. We learn what the difference is between a free range chicken and an industrial chicken, why it's dangerous to continue to give chickens antibiotics, and how important wild foraging is for chickens and land. We also learn many usable takeaways from Matthew including how to take steps to ensure we're eating high-quality chicken and what to look for when purchasing eggs. Matthew expands on other related subjects such as: why it's increasingly dangerous that the people running agriculture don't understand agriculture, what it means to have 60% of our biggest GDP crop being used to make ethanol, how the private equity community can get involved in a more positive way, and why food buyers and cooks have a responsibility to know where the food they serve is coming from. This episode is not meant to scare us, but to help us make better and more informed decisions when buying something that's going to go inside of our bodies. As Matthew says, we are not what we eat, we are what we eat eats. -- The views expressed by guests of CurtCo Media podcasts do not represent that of CurtCo Media.

    We explore the world of sustainable seafood in this episode, highlighting its importance and offering practical tips we can use to ensure we're all making the best decisions for our tastebuds and our bodies. Host John Robert Sutton speaks with Matthew Dolan (Executive Chef, Author of Simply Fish, Cultural Envoy, and Food Network Competitor) to help us understand why we should care about seafood. We learn more about what we're consuming, like what farmed fish are really getting fed, and where our fish travels before it gets to our plates, like where all the amazing seafood from Baja, California goes first before it gets to the United States. There are many great takeaways in this episode, such as suggestions for where to buy fish, how to cook fish well, and how to make oysters smooth like butter. After the interview we hear John talk to Foods That Matter producer AJ Moseley where John shares his favorite dishes to cook – a delicious way to embrace sustainable seafood! Understanding where your food comes from is crucial. This episode encourages us to think twice about the food we're consuming, fostering a deeper connection with our food, ourselves, and the environment. -- This season of Foods That Matter is presented by Watkins.
