Spilled Milk

Today we're in the mind of a sandwich but memory lane keeps yanking us back. We face our fears of odorous funk as we share our hot takes on various hot sandwiches. We're particular and peculiar as we chat hot ham, oozing cheese, Iowa Skinnies and dense, bouncy meatballs before eventually bursting into song.   Episode 154: Favorite Sandwiches Episode 219: Ham and Cheese Episode 7: Irish Spring Epis...

Today we're Franch and Kench and consider calling the whole thing off as we taste goo cups and seed sacks. We play a round of Rock or Gloop? before coming up with a new spin-off idea by squinting real hard. This episode has it all: etymology, biology, theology and an exclusive Drop In Addendum. Keep the Flavor Going!   ATK Key Lime Pie recipe Passion fruit curd Passiflora Episode 198: Grapes Suppo...

Is this all just a decadent dream? Today we're watery, whipped and synonymous with sophistication as we tackle these crackly topped, flour free, confusingly textured desserts. We learn that eggs is eggs and wonder where all the adjectives are before Molly drops the ball. Stay tuned after the credits for an important addendum!   Episode 163: Birthday Cake LIVE! Culinary Artistry Winning Hearts and...

This episode is not for the faint of ears. Producer Abby would like the listeners to know that she removed SO MANY sucking sounds from this episode so you're welcome. M and M taste North America's foremost lollipop brands (straightforward candy with handles) as they endure mystery flavors, mouth abrasions and nightmare puppets. We wonder how many licks it takes to reach the end of the show and wha...

We start this episode like we do all our episodes, by telling you what we are NOT talking about. After that is out of the way, we learn The Sausage Sizzle, lexography and Matthew's super villain origin story. These sandwiches filled with hot beef injections bring out fiery rants, bun friction and toasting tips before we reveal our dream backstage riders. Support Spilled Milk Podcast! Molly's Subst...

Today we're all about seasonal eats in the southern hemisphere as we slice, rip and chunk. We ask 'what's in a name?' as we taste this colorful yet suspicious salad and reminisce about our island partying days. Matthew enjoys the soup while Molly enjoys the extras as we debate the comedic nature of evil little faces.   Janet Fletcher's article about Caprese Salad Support Spilled Milk Podcast! Moll...

We're the show with the WOW! now that we do what Producer Abby tells us. We're full of surprises, reveals and betrayals as we share our meals, snacks and drinks over five days in September. Sharon Stone Fruit plays a recurring guest role in this montage of meals along with Cliff bars, peach corners, Trader Joe's and overpriced bread. After a quick Quantum Leap digression we share what we learned a...

Listen as we google things and use all 5 senses and 2000 parts to chew gum yet again. This time its all 5 all the time and as we edge our taste buds we wonder if we're ready for this most XTREME of gum brands. We also wonder: are kids into these? what about gamers? what does it mean to ReSpawn? In hindsight, our expectations may have been a little too high.   Matrix-inspired commercial Another com...

Today we're hoarse yet velvety, smooth but rough, wet yet dry and whipped but also hand scraped as we taste granita aka chopped ice. We're the most on trend we'll ever be as we wonder if its too soon to joke about Mt. Vesuvius, debate coffee brew strength and hope to be periodically useful before our listeners demand Justice for Molly!   Pasta Mista  The Perfect Scoop by David Lebovitz The Man Who...

This is one of those episodes where we learn about ourselves and then judge Matthew. We discuss the history of re-useable water bottles, our preferences, hot takes and pleasant observations while debating glass, plastic or steel and learning about the newsie to urchin pipeline. Take it from an Elder Punk whose favorite beverage is water that this show is all about taking big swigs. Spoon Universit...

Today we're not sponsored and discover that the more we learn the less we think. We begin with low expectations about these 'functional' 'biotic' sodas and debate what the going rate is for our show because we're the real deal. No artificial sweetners here! As we drinks these fads in a can and commune with St Elsewhere and St Elmo, we realize that we're full of bacteria but we can still bring sexy...

This episode is, obviously, filled with mouth sounds. Proceed at your own risk. Today we're bringing you the sequel that nobody wanted but is actually very necessary. We wonder what 'DDS' stands for as we bite into these chonky boys from tubes, barrels and sticks. The masticatory vibes are real for take offs and landings so while we're minimally flavored, and softer for longer, we hope to someday...

Get your nose in the game because this is a LEGIT episode we promise. With a little help from the Magic Duoz and Dumpster Dan, we taste these wimpy, weird crackers before taking a pop quiz blindfolded. Then we chat care packages, horror novels and urban legends before teasing even more cheezy sequels.   Bookshucker bookstore Episode 416: Alternative Chips Episode 485: Cheese and Crackers Episode 1...

What is the deal with this and why are we talking about it? We're super trendy again as we get into the history of coffee jelly, try a store bought version and a homemade one all before Mr. Etymology stops by. We get into the age old agar vs gelatin debate before discussing non-funny cartoons and ... creamy stuff?   Coffee Jelly recipe Episode 550: Boba Matthew's Now but Wow! - The One Hundredth T...

Warning: This episode contains a LOT of mouth noises. Today we're the most on trend we've ever been but don't get used to it. The potential for dental emergencies is HIGH as we encounter freeze drove plasma and cheese balls before hopping onto a new stupid candy bandwagon We're shellacked and popped as we wonder why humans do this and then ask how Matthew is like a Skittle.   Molly's Now but Wow!...

Today we're bursting out from inside the crust to identify as a Cake Over Pie or Pie Over Cake person before revealing our favorite insulations. After a few close calls and The Harkening we hold and squeeze these aggressive and sludgy pastries and hope not to lose brown as we blind bake. All in all we embrace the shrinkage, get tender and are DTF.   Northwest Adoption Exchange Stella Park's Butter...

End the clamoring already! We're finally doing saltines! Today we hydrolyze the starches and go premium on these water table crackers but first we make a promise that we do not keep. Yes we talk about the Mandela effect again but we also get into The Devil's Spices and the indecency of sauces before deciding that we've got no zeal for Zesta. We end our episode with a 'science' experiment and gener...

We're kernel sized today as we dump, stir and see what happens while eating handfuls of pudding.

Today we ask things like: how old are we really? who is more annoying to be married to? and who doesn't love us? This episode is decades in the making and before things get morbid we taste test while discussing lying babysitters, boxcar hijinks and the title 'Designated Milk Person'. After some voluptuous mouth feelings and creepy commercials we remember to never forget that Duckies Gotta Grub. To...

Today we're plugging, plodding and chugging along to talk about Texas Red Chili. We're neither purist nor competitive as we taste this questionably chunky but exceptionally delicious soup? stew? gravy? While we decide whether its Halloween or Thanksgiving we plan yet another hypothetical corporate retreat and try to protect Peter Rabbit's stolen life rights.   Urban Cowgirl recipe Episode 490: Chi...

We're just just a couple of cool cookies about to have a moment. Today we're hoping for vodka luges but will settle for raw dough as we taste these toothsome and chocolatey feats of food science.

Today we're talking about The Herb so don't even try to mention thyme. It's all about the sticky leaves of rosemary as we ask what landscapers do and make out of context Spiderman analogies. Mr Etymology pops by as we encounter trailing tendrils, soup tubes and tigers then Lazy Irene gets chopped and invent the drink of the summer.   Roasting, A Simple Art Matthew's Now but Wow!

Today we're filled with something, but we'll never tell you what. We tie ourselves up in knots as we debate the difference between a vine, a rope and a twist and become truly unhinged due to sugar intake. This episode contains: excessive mouth noises, friend slapping, falling diplomas and Billy Madison Syndrome and AI says " includes a humorous segment about lighting candy on fire." catchy song ab...

It's always soup season and today we make you sweat before professing our love for cartoon characters and catchy jingles. With cameo appearances by Ms Piggy, Chucky and Spumoni we realize that we're sick of lessons, have no fiery rants at the ready and don't care what the tongue has to tell us before declaring that Matthew has always been a Dad.   Me Lost Me Cookie at the Disco The Chess Master fr...

Today we're sure we'll mess things up but are permeating studs and talking frying techniques anyway. After a visit from Mr. Etymology we ask how to dredge, and why there are more elephants in the room before offering our shoulders up to be pulled. Then, we fail a spot inspection and put our stamp of approval on some snootiness.   Crunchy Japanese Chicken Recipe   Support Spilled Milk Podcast! Moll...
