Every week on Spilled Milk, writers/comedians Molly Wizenberg and Matthew Amster-Burton start with a food-related topic, from apples to winter squash, and run with it as far as they can go—and, regrettably, sometimes further.
Today we wake up from a nap and travel The Gateway to Gouda before diving into the most interesting topic ever before discussed on this show. After one of our classic scoops, we decide to leave podcasting behind to become EXTREMELY old artisan cheese porters just as soon as we find our hats.

Gather round all ye who thirst for fruited bubbly water and put your cans together for this effervescent citrus beverage tasting. As we sample this spray of the ocean with a hint of mint straight from the cooler, Matthew transforms into a prepper with an accent before dunking on Dayton while Molly travels back to 1993.

Time passes but our love for Staples and R rated tomatoes will never die. We traverse reverse Memory Lane for some reason as we discuss the explosion of wetness that is the little teeny tiny tomato before Molly recounts a strange encounter and Matthew volunteers for The Secret Skirt Steak Scenario.

Today we're just a couple of harmless eccentrics in our dotage as we provide listeners with another classic chewing episode with strong dirt components. Its true that Molly has come a long way, but she still gets weepy as she tries to shirk her professional duty while Matthew decides to get rich or die trying. Toxic and poisonous flavors open up to us before we share some accidental origin stories and our failed attempts at palette expansion.

Today we're synonymous with the product and we go wild with reconstituting and brewing these dehydrated coffee crystals. Molly tries to off-road Memory Lane before Matthew decides to vibe on spice rubs. We decide "if you got it, use it" as we recount days of April Fool's past.

Today we are foisting more ancient history on you as we return to the Fertile Crescent with fond memories and family ways. Molly explains the rise and fall of carob and its dubious health claims while Mr. Etymology's soul goes on a journey. We hope to avoid a specific smell and deal with our "thwarted desire for what is forbidden" as we learn that sometimes almonds are pecans.

Today Host and Listener Matthew goes deep into the wonderful world of udon while attempting to court the Kennedys and explain the concept of compound to Host Molly. Our hosts discuss many, but not all, variations of this low hydration noodle while avoiding lawsuits and welcoming dipping sauces. Finally, they celebrate an unjustly ignored snack.

What better way to kick off spooky season than with an episode dedicated to devilry, danger zones and possessions? As we hesitantly traverse our malodorous memory lanes, we encounter key parties, baby loaves and fuzzy green inhabitants before escaping into dream territory. This sounds weird, here you listen.

Please note that we don't know what we don't know as we discuss nation state creation and travel through the Fertile Crescent, Mesopotamia and Babylonia to learn more about this delicious thing with a pocket.

We blush as we discuss sweetie nights of skin contact, straddling the future and the past to learn about Rosé. Matthew's steps into the void and does his part to bring about Judgement Day as he reveals a diabolical secret and a future hope. We're pressed, crushed and fermented as we get snobby about Chardonnay and yearn to be where the people are.
