Cannibalism, Swedish meatballs, Syrian kobee and cheese shops

Hosted by Evan Kleiman Apr. 01, 2017 Food & Drink

This week, zoologist Bill Schutt considers the implications of culinary cannibalism, and we visit Tony Danza’s cheese shop in New York City. We also find hundreds of different cheeses on offer at The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills and make a pitstop for Swedish meatball sandwiches at Olson’s Scandinavian Delicatessen before heading to Van Nuys for Syrian kobee with Jonathan Gold.
