"I'm not embarrassed to eat anything." – Kate
Bob, Kate, Matt, and special guest Nila are back in full force on this chaotic, delightful episode of the See Food Diet Podcast — and the energy is electric from the first bite. The episode kicks off with donuts from Buckeye Donuts and a recap of the week's meals, including Kate's homemade sloppy joes and hamburger soup, a Mother's Day brunch adventure at Fox in the Snow, and a failed attempt to get into the new Cava in Hilliard on opening day. The crew bounces through Columbus food spots like Briggs Mart, Eat Greek Express, Brassica, Fusion, Wings Over, and CM Chicken, debating everything from the best diner in town to whether Chick-fil-A has quietly ruined their waffle fries.
The conversation takes a wild and hilarious detour into the Great Tater Tot vs. French Fry Debate — a full philosophical breakdown that started at a youth baseball game and somehow ended with a passionate defense of the seasoned potato wedge as the ultimate form. From there, things get even weirder when the gang discovers the TikTok trend of people eating tiny clay pots (yes, actual clay), diving deep into the history of geophagy, *My Strange Addiction* episodes, and whether you should consult your dentist before munching on a jarrito de barro. It's unhinged in the best possible way.
The episode wraps with a juicy discussion about food shame — guilty pleasures you'd never post about, ordering steak at Olive Garden, the grade-D meat allegedly served at Applebee's, and whether a man who orders a raspberry iced tizzle deserves our respect (he does). Throughout it all, the vibe is warm, funny, and deeply local — a love letter to Columbus food culture wrapped in trash talk and donut crumbs.
