Dave Barry: Cheeseburger & French Fries

Dave Barry wrote a nationally syndicated, Pulitzer Prize-winning column that appeared in 500 newspapers from 1983 to 2005 and has published dozens of books. His newest is his very first memoir: Class Clown: The Memoirs of a Professional Wiseass. How I Went 77 Years Without Growing Up.  Case in point: Dave really loves ketchup! He’s also very opinionated about it: where he stores it and what vessel it is delivered in. Spoiler alert: He keeps his ketchup on the counter. Food safety expert Angela Anandappa, executive director of Alliance for Advanced Sanitation, joins the show to tell us which condiments belong in the fridge and which are fine hanging out in the pantry. Plus, host Rachel Belle admits which condiment she’s had in the pantry for 10 years ... and still uses!  Dave, a seafood despiser, tells us what he did with the live Maine lobster mailed to him as a gift; what his family, a group of fruitcake despisers, did with gifted fruitcake; and Dave and Rachel conclude that the best place to cook French fries is in an airplane bathroom.  Watch Rachel’s Cascade PBS TV show The Nosh with Rachel Belle!
