The Mississippi Slug Burger

We enter the world of intergalactic sushi joints and cannibal banquets with food stylist Janice Poon. She tells us about her work on horror and sci-fi films, from feeding vegan vampires to wrangling snails to make arm escargot. Plus, we learn hamburger history with burger scholar George Motz; Bianca Bosker explores the origins of the PB&J; and we make a fragrant beef stew from Vietnam.

Get this week’s recipe for Vietnamese Beef Stew with Star Anise and Lemon Grass (Bò Kho) here.
