Neither Noah nor Louisa is a fan of American football, but that's not going to stop them from digging into the usual Super Bowl spread—metaphorically or literally. This time, they get into what makes a food "Mediterranean," dunk a bit on the Ñational Football League (not a typo), and even manage to find a couple ways to elevate your typical dip.

For the third entry of our Brassicameron—the No Substitutions, Please take on the Cornetto Trilogy, obviously—we take on the fluffy white cabbage that's been with us since the Romans insisted on calling it by a thousand different names. Noah and Louisa talk about all the things you can do with that thing that looks like the ghost of broccoli.

The meat that launched a thousand names; no matter what language you use to refer to a vast expanse of flattened, breaded and fried meat, we can all agree it's a delicious focus for any meal. So, of course, Noah and Louisa take their meat mallets to a few doofuses who can't seem to get it right.

Whether a sweet, brown-topped contrast to rich barbecued meat or a savory round packed with spice and herbs, there's absolutely nothing wrong with cornbread, which is why everyone on the Internet is willing to get into huge arguments about it. Louisa and Noah strike the perfect ground with their correct opinions, and maybe surprise you along the way.

The arc of the natural universe may be long, but it bends towards crab—and mixed with binders and starches, and your preferred red powders, you can begin your own process of carcinization in the most delicious way. Noah and Louisa go down to Baltimore to take on a United States seafood classic.

From sickbeds to cheeseboards, crackers manage to hold up more than their fair share of the culinary sky—so this week, Louisa and Noah, who has a whole new reason to appreciate a shatteringly crisp bite of food, give them their flours.

When Noah and Louisa left off last week, all the pieces were on the board, and it was time to throw them against each other and see what happens—in the Aristotelian crucible of the Big Night, of course. In this part, Noah and Louisa discuss the kind of movies you can't make anymore, talk about Tony Shalhoub being adorable, and give Marc Anthony some reluctant flowers.
