## Summary

This week, in between frozen pizza, candy-corn chocolate bars, and turkey jerky trail mix, we discuss life, the universe, and children's books. There are many snack products, a brown beer with a kick, and lots of wine.

And unicorns, did I mention the unicorns?

Episode 170/Summary

What's this? Two varieties of frozen waffle? Well then, we must eat them both! And is that a variation on peppermint bark? Yes! We should have that over an hour after the waffles! Whatever shall we have in between...

We also have a three pepper cider, frozen pizza, and tropical fruit hard candy with an interesting label. All that and more, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!
Episode 193/Summary

This week, Kevin is on-call for work, and so cannot drink. And that leads us strange places, places maybe no one should go. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the frozen burritos, the frozen gluten-free pizza, or the snack foods.

So hang on to your hats, folks, as we delve into some depths that should not be plumbed sober, including the difference between Atlantic and Pacific beaches, what you should never do with an anemone, and puffed cheese snacks.

All that and more, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!
Episode 19 - “It looks like a Mummy's Toupe”

*Episode link*

## Summary

We actually recorded this one last week, since we're at MarsCon in Williamsburg VA this weekend. Yes, we ate cheap twice in one day - our dedication to the listener knows no bounds.

This week we take a taste of two vegan dishes, and two meat dishes. On the vegan side, we have **Fantastic World Foods' Spicy Thai** soup and **Kashi Mayan Harvest Bake**. On the meat side, we have **Goya Ham Croquettes** and **Uno Tastefulls Peperoni Calzone Cuts**. We're pairing all of this with Le Drunk Rooster wine (spoiler : don't drink this).

Remember, we eat it so you don't have to, although this week you have to try at least one of these...

Episode 192/Summary

As the title suggests, we have both a new variety of SPAM \*AND\* a frozen lutefisk this week. We also have beer, wine, and a Yip-Yip bottle cozy just to say "nope nope nope" when it is time to stop drinking the wine.

Spoiler : we totally should have brought out the Yip-Yip sooner.

There is also vegitarian pizza, cheese pretzels, spicy chocolate, and a whole lot more, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!
Episode 228 - Canadian Box or Whoopass

*Episode link*

## Summary

On the Thursday before Ursula's departure for the Decatur Book Festival, we figured we should open open up this box we received from Canada. Inside there were things we had never seen before. Meat products with a logo that will garner protests. Instant foods that are the same as, but different from foods we get here in the US. And then there are the sweets...

Alongside, we talk about cults, massacres, and gets visits from the beagle and the hound, when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

It would appear that Mendoza, Argentina is a hotbead of wine that Ursula likes. So we've got two weeks of wines from Argentina to talk about. We also have foods from Kevin's pilgramige to Wegman's in Virginia, more from Home Goods, and things sent in by you, the listener.

This week, we have a margarita mixer, which means we break out the tequila, which leads to drunken geekery. We also have the biggest frozen pizza we've found to date, beer, mac & cheese, and lots and lots of chocolate. We even have duck fat caramels. Yes, you read that correctly : DUCK. FAT. CARAMELS.

Have we got a liver-straining show this week! Friend of the show Petrov sent us a selection of Estonian liquors, and we feel it is our duty to taste them all! Honey liquor, Herbert Herbal Liquor, Vanilla Liquor, and 80% (160 proof) Vodka! We'll have it straight and mixed in coffee or tea, as appropriate.

We also have a selection of new foods to try, but it all sort of blurs together when We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!
Episode 20/Summary

We're back from MarsCon 2011, and playing catch-up with two weeks of dinners. So, we've got **Blue Horizon Natural Pasta**, **Lundberg Garlic Primavera Rissoto'**, **Mrs. T's Saurkraut Perogies**, and **Kerala Curry Vegtable Kurma Sauce**. Add into that three new items cooked on the spot - **Jamaican Style Mild Beef Patties**, **Thai Pavilion Thai Peanut**, and **Kimba BBQ Pork Bun**s.

Add to that a bottle of **Snap Dragon Carbernet Sauvignon** (and a little listener mail) and it's another week where we eat it so you don't have to.
Episode 206/Summary

We had a large backlog of breakfast foods and no desire to ruin a day by starting it with eating cheap, so we present BREAKFAST FOR DINNER! Yes, all the reconstituted eggs you expect at breakfast, but in the evening. There are "pancrepes" and breakfast flatbreads. There are three hazelnut spreads and one salted caramel.

And what breakfast is complete without mimosas?

Ursula: Much better attempt. Dash Systems?
Episode 220/Summary

Once upon a time, we picked up a bottle of Dandelion Wine in WVa. This weekend, we actually try drinking it. I also found Candied Bacon Jerky on Amazon, and you KNOW I had to order that. We also have another Southern Pines Brewery Beer, a Malbec from Texas, and another Screamin' Sicilian frozen pizza.

There is also ice cream, cookies, and dried SPAM chunks this week, when We Eat It, So You Don't have To!
Episode 189/Summary

*NOTE: This Episode contains factual errors about the Confederate Battle Flag. Specifically, Kevin stated it was a Tennessee flag when it was actually more closely related to the Army of Nothern Virginia. Ursula calls him out on this, but both are pretty inebriated at that point and don't bother to actually, y'know CHECK THE FRICKING INTERNET, so accuracy is never determined. We are very sorry for the confusion.*

The kale has come back, and it's on pizza! Why would it do this to us? What will it do to us? We'll find out. We'll also find out about several different chips, some from as far away as Australia! Add to that wine, beer, frozen pretzels, and TimTams!

Episode 18 - The Breakfast Show

*Episode link*

## Summary

We're drinking before Noon! OK, this isn't normal, but since we're having breakfast and recording, we figured Mimosas were in order (to dull the pain). This week, we explore the dangers of frozen breakfast foods, starting everything off with **Earth's Best Blueberry Mini-Waffles**. Following that we have **Kraft Cinnamon Bagelfuls**, **Jimmy Dean Bacon Breakfast Bowls**, and close it out with **Eggo Real Fruit Pizza Mixed Berry Sensations**. Along the way, we'll continue our discussions of things that taste like health food, rant a little, and even talk about last night's dinner.

Just another morning in our house, really (except for the mimosas). Even first thing in the morning, we eat it so you don't have to!

This week, we have foods from fans in both Estonia and Australia. Given that we already knew Australia was awesome, the discovery of Estonian food was quite an eye-opener. Or at least, the liquor is really, really good, which goes a long way towards being awesome.

There are also chips from a truck stop, cranberry crackers, donut beer, and pineapple and chili candy.

Sharing is caring, so we all sat down and shared those. But no show is complete without beer and wine, flavored potato chips, and things best left in the freezer section of your local market, so we had some of that too.

So this week we explore the good, the bad, and the downright "Why, God, Why?!?" of the pumpkin spice craze.

Along the way there will be beagles, cats, egg rolls, and wine. There may even be actual good food, but I doubt it. All that and more wen We Eat It, So You Don't Have To!

Episode 182/Summary

One of things things Ursula IS allowed to have on her new low-carb lifestyle is red wine. And wine - particularly red - goes right to her head. Which means reading the screed on the back of that package of jerkey late in the show? It's...interesting.

Aside from that, we have some new snacks, new frozen pizza, more strange asian things, and snacks and snacks and snacks. And maybe even breakfast.

We have new members of the zoo - two kittens, named Cammy and Rose. We will introduce them in between eating a large number of questionable foods.

## Book Appearances

The Emerald Princess Plays a Trick

**Crosscut** is a woodsman who lives in the Greenwood.

## Biography

### The Emerald Princess Plays a Trick

As Crosscut is walking in the forest he eventually hears cries for help in the Twisted Vines. He and the fairy Hazelnut hurry to see what the matter is and find the gardener Staghorn upside-down in the treetops, held painfully up by a rope around his ankle. Crosscut carefully cuts him down, but his ankle hurts so much Staghorn can't stand up on his own. As Hazelnut tends to the injury as best she can, Crosscut goes to look for Princess Emily.

He soon returns with the princess, but Staghorn refuses to speak to her since he believes his injury was caused by another one of her tricks. Although Emily wants to take him to the Emerald Palace to get treatment, the gardener flat-out refuses to go to the palace and insists instead that he go to Nana Woodbine, a woman famed for her healing skills. Shrugging Emily off, he allows Crosscut to help him to his feet instead. Crosscut shrugs apologetically to the princess, but says nothing as he helps Staghorn hobble to Nana Woodbine's cottage.

Crosscut stays at Staghorn's bedside as Nana tends to his injury. They are soon joined by Hazelnut and Staghorn's best friend, the fisherman Fluke. They enjoy telling stories and reminiscing over old times, but the topic soon turns to Princess Emily and her tricks. Curiously, Crosscut keeps quiet, although he laughs along with everyone else when Fluke suggests that Nana Woodbine give the foul-tasting mercury vine medicine to Emily instead of Staghorn.

Later that day, Nana Woodbine sends Fluke to find an herb. When he returns, he explains to everyone that he has discovered that Darklings -not Emily- set the trap that injured Staghorn and that the princess in fact saved him from a similar fate as he was out looking for the herb.

The Legion of Abholos

### Enemies

The Duchy of Bordelaux, The World's Edge Mountains, The Eternal Empire of the Vulture-King

From the endless snowy wastes that crown the land of Craxumia, many things emerge, and they are not always of a flesh and form the meeker inhabitants of the land might expect.

These groups are usually a nomadic band of stragglers, or the yearly migration of fauna moving south for warmer climates (for the northern wastes are nothing short of inhospitable at the height of winter). But recently there have been sightings of strange humanoid figures moving through the blizzards; and of larger, looming shadows that cast a silhouette on the horizon. The inhabitants of nearby Bordelaux peasants towns find that more and more they hear less from the towns to their north.

The sightings came at a trickle, but as winter broke and summer came there began a flood, creatures of twisted form and nightmarish proportion, beasts of sickly pale flesh accompanied by a miasma that erodes away the earth it encounters. And a larger form.. a winged beast with a jagged beak caught only in snatches and glances as if to look for too long would drive a man mad. Whispers are heard through the mountains as horde moves, a single word ringing through the north as if chimed from a bell... Ti'Lath..

Recent reports suggest that the host has taken up residence in the abandoned dwarven hold of Drakenhof, and has claimed the surrounding area from the nomads that populate the north. What they have done with the previous inhabitants is not entirely known, but its seems as the host expands, its numbers swell.. and the survivors that flee to the south are haunted by nightmares of their loved ones, crying for aid as their bodies and souls are pulled and shaped, as though sculpted by a will much greater than their own.

The jagged mountain range that runs from the north was once called a different name, but has since been known as the Claw of Tzeentch, in reverence of the ruinous power that plagued the minds of men long ago. This most recent incursion is none too familiar to those who have knowledge of the ancient past, and history oft repeats itself in ways that makes playthings of mortal men. All that is known is that this latest threat, this Legion, grows with each passing day, and soon will be demanding the attention of all the other inhabitants of Craxumia.

### The War for the Contested Continent

The Duchy of Bordelaux declared war on the Legion of Abholos in Summer of Year 0 AGC, in the hopes that they could stifle the mysterious threat and claim the Contested Continent for themselves.

## Summary

You will note that the name we say we SHOULD call the episode is not what we actually call it. I blame the beer. And it is GOOD beer - I ran into the actual owner of the brewery the day after we recorded it at the Co-Op, and gushed about how awesome it was.

Otherwise, this week is a mixed bag. We have some outstanding foods, and some things that probably should be shot out of a cannon into the sun. But that is how it goes when We Eat it, So You Don't Have To!
