Beans, Beans the Magical Fruit... (with Kelly Wallace-Barnhill) Jul 26, 2023

Show notes

While Lindsey is on forced, unpaid, administrative leave (aka, another vacation), Kelly Wallace-Barnhill steps in to talk about a whole hill of beans! They do F Marry Kill with types of beans, play the Elimination Game with bean dishes, argue about the worth of chickpeas, and Kirk tells the tale of how he used to eat his green beans as a kid (it's as weird as you'd imagine).

"I Go Both Ways with Salsa" Jul 19, 2023

Show notes

This week Kirk and Lindsey dunk themselves into a refreshing, tangy bowl of salsa, discussing green vs. red, the best Mexican food to add salsa to, whether is it okay to add salsa to non-Mexican food, the wrong things to dip into your salsa, the excitement of seeing a salsa bar, and why fruit salsa is complete and utter BS.

Kirk's Salad Redemption??? (with Kelly Wallace-Barnhill) Jul 12, 2023

Show notes

In 2021, Kirk and Lindsey did a salad episode where they competed on who could create a better salad. Lindsey won...Kirk cheated. When the salad episode was re-released last month, frequent guest and friend of Food Fight! Kelly Wallace-Barnhill listened and lost her damn mind. So to right the wrong, Kirk, Lindsey, and Kelly gathered together so Kirk could create another salad (without cheating) in the hopes to mend fences. (It didn't.)

Let's All Get Excited By Popsicles! Jul 05, 2023

Show notes

It's summer and if you aren't eating popsicles, are you even having a summer? Like when else are you eating popsicles? Spring? Meh. Fall? Hard pass. Winter? Just...stop. Popsicles are meant for summer, so that's what Kirk and Lindsey are talking about this week — nostalgic popsicles, bougie popsicles, creamsicles, even...wait for it...pickle popsicles. And out of nowhere, Lindsey's husband Bradley bum rushes the pod to explain the joys of eating popsicles as an adult.

Saturday Brunch at 1:30 pm Is Not Brunch Jun 28, 2023

Show notes

Kirk, Lindsey, friends of Food Fight Kelly Wallace-Barnhill and Jackie Brubaker, Lindsey's husband Bradley, and Kirk's teenage daughter Lily all head to The Lonely Oyster in Echo Park on a Saturday at 1:30 pm for "brunch." This episode took over a year to organize and it is pure chaos.

Cottage Cheese Has Gotten a Glow Up Jun 21, 2023

Show notes

Remember when we all used to make fun of cottage cheese? It was that thing from the '70s and '80s that was scooped into a melon and eaten by moms everywhere? Not anymore. Thanks to Tik Tok, cottage cheese has gotten a glow up and now all the cool kids are doing it. But are Kirk and Lindsey doing it? Is cottage cheese worth all this new hype, or is it the same stuff we mocked decades ago?

Why Are We Not Living Our Best Crepe Lives? Jun 14, 2023

Show notes

Crepes are wonderful. So why the hell aren't we eating them? Shame on us...shame on us all. This week Kirk and Lindsey dig into what exactly is a crepe, when's the best time to eat them, dumb creperies names, savory vs. sweet, and why America has decided to "Cold Stone Creamery" the concept of a crepe.

Let's Debate the Hottest Food Takes from the Internet Jun 07, 2023

Show notes

You think Kirk and Lindsey have hot food takes? Yeesh! The internet is literally on fire with them, so the two dissect a bunch to see how valid they really are. Takes like:

"If you put nuts in brownies you are an evil person."

"Vanilla is the best flavor of ice cream."

"I love beets because they taste like how dirt smells."

And those aren't even the hottest!
