Description

This is food news for everyday people. Back of the Fridge looks at what’s happening in our food system and what it actually means for how we eat and live. From recalls and safety alerts to SNAP policy, grocery prices, automation, shifts in farming, and food trends that quietly shape our habits. Hosted by The Journalist Who Cooks, a veteran multimedia journalist with nearly two decades in newsrooms, the show translates headlines into real life. This podcast thrives on context, clarity, and conversation. You will not hear any panic or fear-mongering. Because food is never just food. It's policy. It's access. It's culture. It's power. And it's personal.
