About this episode
This week we talk about Burger King, an episode we were shocked we haven't done before. Obviously there's a lot of Whopper talk, but we also discuss some lesser-known menu items for all you fast food hipsters. Also, Tim wants to spy on a contractor and we solve a problem from someone who wants some driving tips.Blue Apron knows that when you cook with incredible ingredients, you make incredible meals, so they set the highest quality standards for their community of artisanal suppliers, family-run farms, fisheries and ranchers. Whether it’s Japanese ramen noodles, wild-caught Alaskan salmon or heirloom tomatoes, Blue Apron is bringing you the best.
