Popular Reviews of The Food That Built America

he Food That Made AmericaThis 2021 history podcast from Ozy and the History Channel tells the surprisingly entertaining stories about what it took to create some of the most famous food industry giants you thought you knew like KFC, Hershey and a dozen or so more. Ozy has done some other notable podcasts including Flashback, Future of X and Confidential. Fans of the History Channel might be privy to the fact that it also has a TV show by the same name with the same episode topics. The background stories of how some of our favorite snacks were developed shows an unexpected human side to the people we’ve come to know as tycoons. There’s everything you can think of in these episodes: ruthless business tactics,aspiring competition, ingenuity, innovation and more. One of my favorite things about the show is how it’s told. Each episode is told with the help of a knowledgeable host, food historians, and professors. It’s all blended together for a seamless story. Apple Podcasts has 4.5 stars, and 427 ratings. Some don’t like solo host Sean Braswell but I’m a big fan of his voice. So far there are 10 episodes and while I hope there will be more this appears to a limited series. The last episode came out in April. When it was airing new episodes were released once a week on Thursdays and were on average 32 minutes long. My favorite episodes had to be “Cereal Part One: The Brothers of Battle Creek'' and “The Great Chocolatiers” because who doesn’t love cereal and chocolate. “The Great Chocolatiers'' alsoo took one of the most popular slots according to Owltail along with “Colonel Sanders’ First Stand.” Great for kids and classrooms.Similar Pods: THE HISTORY OF FOOD, The Fantastic History Of Food, and GastropodFor more reviews check out @themastercast on instagram and @mastercastpods on twitter
