Want to feast on funny food facts and fables? Or slurp up strange and spicy stories from supermarkets and society? Bite into Australia’s funnest food podcast, Ingredipedia. 

Each episode, competitive hosts Emily Naismith (Broadsheet, frankie magazine) and Ben Birchall (3RRR FM’s Breakfasters, Smith Journal) try to serve the most interesting stories about a specific ingredient (say, Tim Tams or chillies) in a bid for your affection. You get to vote for who was the most interesting on Instagram!

It’s fun! It’s lighthearted! It’s largely unhinged! It’s the McDonald’s Happy Meal of the podcast world (but back when you actually got a Cheeseburger and a toy inside).

Weird and interesting food stories and facts.

Ingredipedia

Ingredipedia is a food fight podcast, but instead of burgers and pies, your hosts sling weird and interesting food stories. 



Each episode, Emily Naismith (frankie magazine, Broadsheet) and Ben Birchall (3RRR FM’s Breakfasters, Smith Journal) choose an ingredient (say, maple syrup or tofu) and battle it out over three rounds to see whose facts reign supreme. There are personal stories, extremely unscientific experiments, kitchen failures, rare triumphs and a whole lot of strange facts from the depths of the internet (an uncanny amount related to The Civil War). 



This is a podcast for anyone who loves eating food hosted by two friends who also love eating food. Oh and you get to vote who wins each episode on Instagram, so come and sit with us and pick your favourite (but don’t tell us to our face because we have fragile egos… or at least one of us does).



Our catchy theme music is by Jarrad Brown of Eagle & The Worm.

🍯Crumpets: WTF Is Crumpet Toast? Ben’s Saucy Crumpet Topping🤯

Huey is one of Australia’s most iconic TV chefs (hello, food-themed braces) and he is BACK! We loved watching him on school sick-days, so we lost our minds when we actually got to talk to the great man himself! We chatted about wiping the plate with a tea towel, his fave anchovies and evidently… being in a band!?
