What makes us Food People (not Foodies, never Foodies)?

Tell us you're a food person without TELLING us you're a food person. We'll go first. On this week's show, BA staffers divulge the single moments, winding paths, and everyday habits that make us food people. Associate food editor Rachel Gurjar walks us through how she went from living with her parents in Mumbai to landing her dream job at BA. Contributor DeVonn Francis tells us why, for him, being a food person means caring about far more than what's on the plate. Tune in to hear their stories, and to find out who on the BA staff drinks milkshakes for breakfast, and who lies in bed counting cheeseburgers instead of sheep.
