  • Summary

  • In preparation for a new episode of the Smörgåsbord Podcast, we're reliving some old episodes of the show.   This week, we look back at the time when Angel and Mik travel to an American carnival and take a deep dive in all the wild foods you can eat there!   In today’s episode of Smörgåsbord, Angel and Mik finally go to an American carnival! Well, digitally speaking. They explore the history of the carnival and all the usual food you can eat at a carnival. Popcorn, corndogs, funnel cakes, you name it!    They also contemplate burning an old robot friend, theorize on the history of the 401 error and Angel shares her new favorite ice cream.    If you want to catch our previous episode on the Carnival in Brazil you can find it on our podcast page under episode 36 or on YouTube below: https://youtu.be/VyDWwDwoUXc   00:00 Opening Song  00:11 Show introduction 01:51 What’s in our palette? 04:48 What is a carnival? 07:17 The history of carnival 14:22 Carnivals today 15:55 Carnival food 17:41 Popcorn 21:54 Candy apples 27:02 Sno-cones 31:01 Corndogs 38:26 Cotton candy 45:26 Mini-donuts 53:17 Funnel cake    Resources from today’s episode: Wikipedia “A History of Your Favorite Carnival Foods” by Celebration Source “The delicious history of your favourite carnival foods (10 Photos)” by Martin “The Dying Art of Speaking Ceazarnie” by Kelley Fisher “History of Traveling Shows In America Is Rich And Colorful!” by Showmen Museum “Why Is Popcorn the Default Movie Theater Snack?” by Maura Lieberman “The History of Popcorn” by Bethany Moncel “The History of Popcorn: How One Grain Became a Staple Snack” by Michelle Delgado “The History of Caramel and Candy Apples” by Gold Meal “The Colorful History of Shaved Ice” by Mariel Synan “How Do You Make a Snow Cone?” by Wonderopolis “5 Things to know about the corn dog” Constance Gibbs “The Short, Sad History of the Corn Dog” by Robet Sietsema “10 Things You Never Knew About Corn Dogs” by Katie Orlady “History of Cotton Candy” by Candy History “10 Sweet facts about cotton candy” by CBC Kids  “What Is a Mini-Donut?” by Laura Metz “The History of the Donut” by The Mini Donut King “The History of Funnel Cake and a Traditional Recipe” by Tori Avey “How to Make the Crispiest, Crunchiest Funnel Cake at Home” by Jessica Gentile “31 Deep-Fried Treats That You Have to See to Believe” by Cooking Channel “World's Craziest Carnival Foods” By Cooking Channel “12 Crazy Carnival Foods You Can Try This Summer” by MapQuest “America’s 50 Most Outrageously Insane State Fair Foods (Slideshow)” by Dan Myers “Popcorn as a snack: Healthy hit or dietary horror show?” by American Heart Association News “Are Caramel Apples Healthy?” by Sara Ipatenco “Why Are There Two National Doughnut Days?” by Jake Rossen “National Funnel Cake Day” by La Ronde “How to Make a “Traditional Rainbow” Hawaiian Shaved Ice” by Alana Brophy “Truth About Ice Cream Snow Cones May Be Hard to Swallow” by Health Day “10 Things You Never Knew About Corn Dogs” by Katie Orlady “The 15 Unhealthiest Junk Foods in America” by Franzika Spritzler “The History of Cotton Candy – A Dentist's Summer Gift” by Gerard Paul “Cotton Candy, A Medical Wonder?” by NPR “Stunning Health Benefits of Cotton Candy Discovered” by David Katz “Do-It-Yourself Midway: Homemade Mini Donuts” by Julie “The Health Risks of Eating Doughnuts” by Andra Picincu “Top 5 Unhealthy Theme Park Foods” by Nina Elias “Funnel Cakes vs Elephant Ears: Which Is Better for You?” by Emily Weaver Smörgåsbord Podcast is a show where we explore the rituals, myths and all things strange about the world of food.
