Road Trip Essentials: Food Podcasts
There is nothing quite like a cross-country summer road trip. The gentle rocking of the car at fast speeds on the interstate. The smell of the air-conditioner running at full blast. The feel of your warm blanket covering your legs as you nod off to sleep (when you aren’t the driver, of course!). The taste of your delicious free-from snacks and the sound of voices on a podcast discussing interesting topics regarding food allergies and celiac disease.
Wait, you mean you don’t listen to podcasts about food allergies and celiac disease? Well perhaps this summer you can give some a try! We compiled a list of our favorites (in no particular order) so when you are on one of those long, boring trips through corn fields or soybean farms, check out one of these educational podcasts. And be sure to let everyone around you know what you’ve learned! That is the purpose of listening to podcasts, right?
You can find these podcasts for free on most podcast player apps on your smartphone or on the website: player.fm.
