Show Notes

This week, we're joined by special guest Dennis Lee, staff writer at the Takeout and lunatic behind the newsletter Food is Stupid and the late, great blog The Pizzle. Dennis and I discuss the history of pickled limes and their role in Little Women before taste-testing our own home-pickled citrus. We're both dubious... but do these limes contain hidden depths?

It also interpolates the cover art for Hena Khan's book "More to the Story," with permission from Simon & Schuster. Our theme music is Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 16 in C Major.
