Bibigo Steamed Dumplings: Mandu Business (Ep 36)

The Froze Bros dig into Korean cuisine this week with Bibigo Steamed Dumplings (or mandu as we learn they’re called in Korean). These microwave-ready dumplings clock in at just under two minutes of prep time and deliver a filling of pork, cabbage, onion, and tofu. Max's mini wontons and Darren's potstickers (both from Bibigo) also get the full review treatment. The Bros explore Bibigo's parent company, CheilJedang Corp, uncovering its curious history as Samsung's sugar producer, discovering that CJ owns some popular American brands, and learning that the company is also a major player in entertainment. (Wanna buy a podcast, CJ?) Along the way, the Bros debate the merits of chicken salad, discuss vegetarian-fed chickens, and report on frozen food recalls, including a massive 58-million-pound call on corn dog and sausage on a stick! The episode wraps with a Froze Before Hos segment testing how freezing cotton candy transforms this carnival classic. Whether you're here for world-class dumplings or world-class chaos, this episode delivers both—and possibly wood chips in your sausage.
