Soup On The Rocks

A Nostalgic Cream of Asparagus Recipe

New Fave Icypole: Soupsicle

Best Before Date Conspiracy

Sorry in advance. But this episode is more disgusting than delicious. We bring up (almost literally) some 1950s to 1970s ‘recipes’ featuring tinned soup which should never see the light of day. But on the more positive side, Ben cracks a tinned soup conspiracy wide open!

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.

😱Tinned Soup: ‘Soup On A Stick’ and Other Truly Cursed Horrors 😨

Em cooks a crab

WTF is in a crabstick?

California rolls: good or bad?

Is crab juice real?

WTF is in crab sticks? And also, did The Simpsons lie to us about crab juice? This episode is 50% real crab and 50% fake crab, and tbh that is a whole lot less fake crab than we’d expect from ourselves.

Okonomiyaki theme park

Cursed fruity cabbage

Is kimchi magical?

Cabbage Patch Kids

Ben ruins Em’s fave fruit by using it in a truly cursed vintage cabbage recipe but there’s also delicious cabbage things like an okonomiyaki park and wild kimchi pairings. There’s also creepy dolls.
