Eat Your Words Presents: Saved by the Bellini

Since 2009, Eat Your Words has covered what’s new and happening in the world of food through its literature. A radio dispatch from Cathy Erway, founder of the blog Not Eating Out In New York, Cathy was joined by authors of books that you would want to eat up! From colorful cookbooks, to food memoirs, to exposés on the food industry, every conversation is full of meaty topics for discussion.

Now, in 2023, Eat Your Words is proud to present its first limited-run series. We’ve partnered with John deBary, author of “Drink What You Want,” to create a companion podcast that dives deep into the production of his newest cocktail book. “Saved by the Bellini” is all about 90’s nostalgia. “Saved by the Bellini” includes over 65 recipes that celebrate the decade’s greatest pop culture moments, from cassette tape tunes and video game consoles to after-school snacks and OMG-it’s-back-again fashion. In this 7-episode series, John interviews the editors, illustrators, and cocktail innovators who helped to make this book a reality.

Episode 324: Food on the Page: Cookbooks and American Culture Dec 03, 2017

Show notes

On this week's episode of Eat Your Words, Cathy is joined in studio by Megan Elias, author of Food on the Page, the first comprehensive history of American cookbooks from the early 1800s to the present day. Following food writing through trends such as the Southern nostalgia that emerged in the late nineteenth century, the Francophilia of the 1940s, countercultural cooking in the 1970s, and today's cult of locally sourced ingredients, Elias reveals that what we read about food influences us just as much as what we taste.

Episode 322: Whitewash: Weed killer, Cancer & Corruption Oct 29, 2017

Show notes

It’s in our food, our water, our air, soil and our own bodies. It’s the most widely used herbicide in all of human history, and while farmers and homeowners alike use it regularly, this pesticide carries an array of dangers the corporations that profit from it don’t want you to know about. This week on Eat Your Words, Cathy chats with Carey Gilliam, author of *Whitewash: the Story of a Weed killer, Cancer & Corruption of Science*. The book discusses the use of Monsanto's glyphosate herbicide, known commonly by consumers as Roundup. Whitewash contains many revelations not only about how pervasive this and other pesticides are now in our food production system, but how hard corporate entities like Monsanto have worked to conceal the truth.

Episode 320: The Taste of Empire Oct 15, 2017

Show notes

On this week's episode of Eat Your Words, host Cathy Erway is joined by historian Lizzie Collingham, author of The Taste of Empire: How Britain's Quest for Food Shaped the Modern World. Collingham's book tells the story of how the British Empire's quest for food shaped the modern world. Told through twenty meals over the course of 450 years, from the Far East to the New World, Collingham explains how Africans taught Americans how to grow rice, how the East India Company turned opium into tea, and how Americans became the best-fed people in the world. In The Taste of Empire, Collingham masterfully shows that only by examining the history of Great Britain's global food system, from sixteenth-century Newfoundland fisheries to our present-day eating habits, can we fully understand our capitalist economy and its role in making our modern diets.

Episode 319: The Life of Patience Gray Oct 01, 2017

Show notes

On this week's episode of Eat Your Words, host Cathy Erway is joined by writer Adam Federman, author of Fasting and Feasting: The Life of Visionary Food Writer Patience Gray. Federman tells the remarkable―and until now untold―life story of Patience Gray, author of the celebrated cookbook Honey from a Weed. Gray lived in a remote area of Puglia in southernmost Italy. She lived without electricity, modern plumbing, or a telephone, grew much of her own food, and gathered and ate wild plants alongside her neighbors in this economically impoverished region. Her influence, particularly among chefs and other food writers, has had a lasting and profound effect on the way we view and celebrate good food and regional cuisines. Gray’s prescience was unrivaled: She wrote about what today we would call the Slow Food movement―from foraging to eating locally―long before it became part of the cultural mainstream.

Episode 318: The Comfort Food Diaries Sep 24, 2017

Show notes

On this week's episode of Eat Your Words, Cathy is joined by former New Yorker editor Emily Nunn, author of The Comfort Food Diaries: My Quest for the Perfect Dish to Mend a Broken Heart.

One life-changing night, reeling from her beloved brother’s sudden death, a devastating breakup with her handsome engineer fiancé and eviction from the apartment they shared, Emily Nunn had lost all sense of family, home, and financial security. After a few glasses of wine, heartbroken and unmoored, Emily—an avid cook and professional food writer—poured her heart out on Facebook. The next morning she woke up with an awful hangover and a feeling she’d made a terrible mistake—only to discover she had more friends than she knew, many of whom invited her to come visit and cook with them while she put her life back together. Thus began the Comfort Food Tour.
