It’s Raining Meat… Hallelujah…. It’s Raining Meat!

“Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” is a beloved children's book by Judi Barrett about the town of Chewandswallow, where food falls from the sky for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, until the weather turns bad and giant food storms threaten the town, forcing the residents to find a new way to live. The story, first published in 1978, is known for its imaginative concept and inspired the popular animated film adaptation, though the movie changes the plot to involve a food-making machine. Crazy, right? Completely fictionalized, right? What if I were to tell you that in 1876, a small family farm in Kentucky experienced a phenomena eerily similar to this children’s book plot… Would you believe me? Check your calendar because it’s not April Fool’s Day, but it is Saturday and this is another “you cannot be serious” episode of your favorite podcast. So, brew another pot because coffee goes with everything…. including meat. Welcome to Missing Chapter!Want some Missing Chapter merchandise? Click ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
