Ellio’s Cheese Pizza with Shaun: Sardines and Pickles and Ham, Oh My! (Ep 56)

It's March, which means it's officially Frozen Food Month! And the Bros are celebrating with a long overdue review of a frozen institution. This week, Darren and Max welcome back friend-of-the-pod Shaun to review Ellio's Cheese Pizza—the rectangular, crustless, school cafeteria icon that's been making kids happy since 1963. After a review of Ellio’s classic cheese squares, things get…creative. The Bros asked their listeners to submit toppings for a special fan pizza, and the results range from inspired to inedible. Caramelized onions, sardines, anchovies, pickles, artichoke hearts, ham, pineapple, and more all make an appearance. Each Bro also brings their own personal Ellio's creation to the table, with results ranging from gourmet to quite questionable. Plus: Trader Joe's recalls 3.4 million pounds of chicken. The Bros try to remember grade school math. The Weathermen were not, it turns out, meteorologists. Max pops Romanian rum candies like, well, candy. Shaun tells tales of YMCA poolside summers. And somewhere in Connecticut, Darren cooks with spirits while a blizzard threatens to knock out his power for six days.
