When I make eggs at home, I cook them over-medium, with a yolk that's firm on the outside, but not fully set inside. This has proven impossible to get at restaurants. I've tried describing the yolks "half-set," "creamy," "soft in the middle," and even "jelled," but I've never found a joint that can reliably hit that midpoint between rubbery and runny. Are there any foods you consistently cook better at home, or simply can't trust restaurants to prepare the way you like them?

I ordered some Domino's very drunk the other day which is kind of a rarity for me and looking at my order in the harsh, sober light of day I was like oh wow I really went for it (all the dips! the parmesan bread nuggs! 2 large pizzas!) Do y'all have any particular drunk ordering habits that you judge yourself for in the morning?

Wiger mentioned on a recent episode that he's in the credit card points game. As a freak who has the same hobby, I couldn't help but wonder if he would share a bit about his setup. Which cards does he have/families of reward points is he involved in? How in-depth is his spreadsheet? How insane does Mitch find all of this?

Hi boys and Emma! Back in the early days of podcasting there was this show called Mike and Tom Eat Snacks with Michael Ian Black and Tom Cavanaugh as hosts doing what is suggested in the title. Well, they just recently released some new episodes after a few years off.. is there potential for a crossover episode? Or is there some major beef between y'all, such as ongoing litigation due to an intellectual property dispute between not dissimilar podcast concepts, preventing this epic teamup? Please make this happen! Big fan of the show, blah blah blah. Sincerely, Travis Olivera Ps the city of Utica (NY) has many unique foods that are worth a trip. Pps And what's Spoon Nation called now that Mitch is Mr. Slice? Slice Nation doesn't sound right. Either way hashtag Burger Brigade.

What is your favorite road trip drive thru order? I like the McDonald’s two cheeseburger meal because it’s easy to eat one-handed and the chance of lettuce and ketchup getting everywhere is low, but sometimes I like living on the edge and getting nuggets with a dipping sauce to wedge into a drink holder.

I was recently eating some nacho-cheese Doritos and was planning on making oven-fried chicken for dinner, and I thought to myself, "Why not?" I used crushed Doritos as breading on the chicken, and was amazed at how good it turned out. My question - have you ever incorporated a junk-food hack into a recipe, and did it wind up being a mistake, a genius move, or something in between?

Two questions. 1) What’s the most money you’ve paid for a sandwich? I was telling my brother about two of my favorite sandwich spots that I pay $15 to $22 and he thought I was nuts. 2) Do you have a food memory high that you chase/ing? Example: Right after high school there was a local bakery that made the best rotisserie turkey sandwiches and they made them for only like a year but I’ve been chasing that turkey sandwich sandwich ever since. Perfect fresh baked rolls with fresh produce. Just perfection.

People must have asked this before, but if they have, I’ve never seen it addressed. We’ve had guest appearances from just about everyone close to Mitch, from childhood friends, to his mom- even the dang cats have gotten their moment in the sun by gracing the the Doughboys airwaves! But so far when it comes to Nick, there’s someone that gets discussed almost every episode that has yet to make an appearance. Will we ever get a chance to hear a restaurant review from Nick’s lovely wife Natalie? I’m sure fans would be interested, and her opinions would bring a lot to the show, your thoughts?

Martin Ross

2021-09-21 01:24:52 +0000 UTC

Hi Doughboys! Can’t wait to see you live. My friends and I have been having a debate that we were hoping you could settle. She thinks people can run a mile faster than they can drink a bottle of wine. I definitely think people can drink a bottle of wine MUCH faster than run a mile. Who do you think is right?

Hey Doughboys! Can’t wait to see you in Portland! With Jingle All The Whey being such a great segment lately (the Price Is Right Rule did nothing wrong) I was curious what currently used jingles are your favorites. They don’t have to be food related, necessarily. My personal favorites are Popeyes and, of course, J.G. Wentworth. Thanks for the laughs and Spoon Nation for life (even though I support the Price Is Right Rule sorry Mitch).

A few weeks ago I had Del Taco for the second time, but Del Scorcho for the first time, and it got me thinking: How many sauce packets (combined from all fast food restaurants and otherwise you’ve been to) have you used in your lifetime so far? Feel free to put it into a measurement other than packets. I would say I’ve used maybe 10 gallons, most of that being ketchup.

Hey doughfriends. Here are a few quirks about me, and maybe you can relate. When going to a sit down restaurant, I dont like when the party looks at the menu and decides what they want to eat BEFORE we sit down (during waits, or deciding on a restaurant). I think it takes away from the experience of looking at a menu and chatting about it while sitting and socializing. Thoughts? I get it when you wanna see if you like whats on the menu to see if its a choice place. But not actually decide, or look at it carefully. Thanks! From new patreon subscriber, Alex from victoria BC

Which fast food chain has the best condiments? For me, Taco Bell is the best at what it's trying to do. The mild sauce is killer and has a unique flavor, the hot sauce is just perfect, and the fire sauce has great piquancy. As for secret sauces, I think Cane's sauce at Raising Canes is a cut above, but curious on your thoughts on this topic. Love the show. Discovered it during the pandemic and it's provided me some needed levity. Eric Medor in Costa Mesa

What is the best fast food deal you have encountered? Back in the mid 90s there was a Subway I would go to in NYC that had 2 foot longs for $8. 12 years before the $5 foot long promotion. Also in the early 90s at a McDonalds in Florida I went to, there use to be 29 Cent Hamburger Tuesdays and 39 Cent Cheeseburger Wednesdays.

The Wendy's Double Cheeseburger, in my humble opinion, has decreased in size quite a bit in the last 20 years. I remember the corners of the square burger sticking way out; now they're easily tucked away under that standard fast food hamburger bun. Used to be my favorite burger, but I would definitely defer to McDonald's, Burger King, Five Guys, Hardees, and others any day. Dave Thomas would be ashamed. Antonio Bandanaz in Pittsburgh

Hi 'boys, It's so frustrating that combination KFC/Taco Bells don't offer items that combine components from both menus. What hybrid item would you like to see at a KFC/TB? A caveat: since Taco Bell just debuted their "crispy chicken sandwich taco," you can't just put fried chicken on a Taco Bell item and call it good, that's too easy. I want you to think outside the box (or bun?). Quesarito with gravy between the tortillas? Coleslaw in a crunchwrap? SEASONED BEEF FAMOUS BOWL SUPREME?! Go crazy.

It's called Fast Foodies and the three chefs re-make a fast food dish that is one of the celebrity guest's favorites. The chef who wins gets a trophy called the Chompionship! WTF!

Nick once said that “Toy Story 2” is his all-time favorite movie.

Howdy. I think you both agreed recently that cheese pizza is the best/purest form of pizza. Similarly, some idiots around here argue that the original version of a cheese steak (just Cheez Whiz) is the best. Also, certain monsters believe a flavorless vanilla milkshake without crumbled Oreos or chocolate syrup are as good as milkshakes get. Are there other foods that are best in their plainest forms?

Question for Emma: The episodes sound great, and sounded awesome throughout COVID's remote recordings, even with Zoom, uncertain guest mikes, and all the other challenges I'm sure ya'll had to endure. Aside from COVID-induced editing nightmares, can you take us behind the scenes and share how much editing is done on a typical episode? Examples would be tangents or re-takes that are edited out; fixing audio issues that would distract from the listening? Thanks, love the show

Hi gang. A friend recently posed a group this question: You're at a bodega (I guess a convenience store or 7/11 is the closest LA equivalent?) and you're only allowed to buy one sweet item, one savory item, and one drink. What are you getting? I went with a Joya halvah bar, tortilla chips, and a large Polar seltzer water and was roundly mocked for weird choices.

Dear Nick and Mr. Slice -- it's almost Halloween! What kind of candy do you guys give out to the little devils (sorry mitch) and skellingtons that show up at your door? Or are you too famous to hand out candy to the little civilian shits? Love ya!

If you could never eat again and still magically be sustained, would you? While this may seem like an easy answer, keep in mine this would hypothetically mean you would never have to spend money on food again (saving hundreds of thousands of dollars (a week)), never have to poop again, and never have to brush your teeth again (I guess).

Next week, my wife and I are moving back to our home state (New Jersey) after having lived on the West Coast for the past few years. Mitch, as someone else who no longer lives on the West Coast, any advice on how to deal with spending more time around family? Looking for any advice on setting boundaries, reconnecting with old friends, or any other tips from the ex-LAer.

I love visiting restaurants from TV shows and movies, like Holsten's from The Sopranos finale or Double R Diner from Twin Peaks (it's called Twede's Cafe in real life and there's a bunch of Tweety bird plushes all over the place — it's weird!). Have you visited any pop culture restaurants, or are there any you would like to visit? Thanks!

We always hear of your fast food/chain favorites. Can you tell us more about some of your ‘’fine dining’’ favorites? Specifically what types of entrees, sides, etc.

Hey boys, Emma, and ghost of Yusong! I’m sorry to say that one of the Wendy’s nearest my house recently closed out of the blue. This is kind of a bummer for me cause it was on my way home from work and I would occasionally stop for a treat like a Junior bacon cheeseburger or Spicy chicken sandwich on a crappy day. My question is, what is the most you’ve ever ever been impacted by the closing of an individual location of a larger chain? Thanks, love you all!

Has there been an episode where you have gone to the restaurant, either with the guest or on solo ventures, and just immediately knew that it was going to get a horrible fork rating? Did it make it easier or more difficult to talk about? Also, why is restaurant spelled so strangely?

Brian B.

2021-09-20 19:14:45 +0000 UTC

This one is for Emma and Yusong, if Mitch and Nick were food items what would they be and what would their fork scores be?

Cartoons made me think picnics were EXTREMELY commonplace, and sitcoms made me think I'd spend 50% of my life in a bar or coffee shop chatting with friends. As a kid, what unrealistic food or drink themed behavior from TV, movies, etc. did you expect to engage in more, but don't?

My wife and I recently went out to a fairly nice restaurant while vacationing in Florida with our two kids (5 and 3 years old). It was early and the dining room was about half full as we got sat. My attention was on my son, trying to stop him from throwing everything off the table when all of a sudden I hear someone from behind me yell "HELP!" My wife jumps up, sprints over, and proceeds to give the heimlich maneuver to the elderly woman at the table behind me. The fry she was choking on comes flying out! It all happened so fast, and our adrenaline was pumping for the rest of the meal. The woman who was choking was in her 80s and was dining with her daughter. They thanked up profusely, finished up their meal and left. I was not looking forward to the bill because it was going to be pricey and my wife and I had several drinks. When we got the check, it had been completely paid for by the woman who was choking, and they even bought some stuffed animals for my kids! (total bill was around $150) She wrote us a lovely note about how thankful she was. Of course we tipped very generously. Have you ever witnessed a life-saving moment while dining out?

Hello Mitch, Wiger, Emma, & Yusong. What’s your favorite toy you ever got in a Happy Meal or other chain’s kids meal?

Austin Brungardt

2021-09-20 19:10:01 +0000 UTC

Hey Doughboys. I just want to sincerely thank you for all the “content” you have made over the years. I realize that it has helped with my depression and I was listening to the Thanksgiving Garfield Episode with Paul Rust while playing the new 2k22 and just how much your goofiness has helped me get through each day. Thank you. Also, which food would your favorite nba team represent? I’m a Bulls fan and I think it’s gotta be a big ol Pizza. Like Jordan ate and got sick from in the flu game! Love you guys! -Todd

The price of takeout has certainly gone up hasn't it? In NYC where I reside, I feel like prices are through the roof.

Hey guys! My brother and I once said when we were in college that “no matter how much money I make, I’ll still enjoy a totinos pizza”. What are your favorite, cheap/broke foods from college or other parts of your life.

Now that it is #SoupSZN, what are your go to soups? I love me a nice French Onion. It’s a power soup. Thank you!

HotBoySoup

2021-09-20 19:09:05 +0000 UTC

What's an item that, anytime you see it on a menu, you'll get it. For me it's both French Onion Soup (though my mom's is always better) and Key Lime Pie.

Brian Edwards

Doughboy crew! What is the best and/or fanciest meal the 4 of you have ever shared, either for the podcast or not?

Geoff Pecover

2021-09-20 19:07:55 +0000 UTC

Is it possible to single out the best meal you've ever had? I've had many great dining experiences but a single winner doesn't spring to mind. Can any of you pinpoint yours?

Alec Lindsey

2021-09-20 19:07:54 +0000 UTC

Hey Doughboys, during the Pandemic my girlfriend and I have done our best to do right, which includes ordering a lot of takeout/ delivery with contact delivery. We've found that we're suffering from restaurant fatigue because of the limited choices in our area- are there any chains or restaurants or cuisines that you think you can't have anymore because of restaurant or cuisine fatigue? For example, it's gonna be a long time before I have Thai food and likely will never go to a Denny's or IHOP again ove the show, met you all in San Diego and got to tell Yusong he did nothing wron in person. #cummywummies

Rafael Gaitan

2021-09-20 19:07:06 +0000 UTC

Are there any food items that you prefer the alternate versions of more than the original? For example, I have found that Heinz No-Sugar-Added Tomato Ketchup to be better than the og product. It has more of a savory umami flavor. I will also go to bat for golden oreos, although I'm sure they're as good as the chocolate ones. If you answer this thank you! If not go to hell!

At Moe's Southwest Grill they have the exclusive Moe-Rita in the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine. If you had to create a similar exclusive drink for a chain, what chain would you pick and what would it be?

Generally, in theme parks they also have themed food, like Springfield in Universal has Krusty Burgers, Harry Potter has Butter Beer, the Avenger's campus has shwarma etc. If there was a Doughland, what sort of themed treats would you want to be there? Mr. Slice's slices?

I was out to brunch with my lovely wife Maribel (pronounciation: MAH-dee-BEL) and I described my meal as "ungapatchka." After explaining the meaning of the word to my wife she flatly told me "Never say that word again." What words do you hate to hear when people describe food?

Hello hello! I was interested in know how you prioritize meals while traveling? When we recently went back to Cincinnati after moving away 2 years ago and had our list of restaurants we needed to go to while back. We realized that we had more restaurants on our list than meals we needed to eat while I'm the city. This has to happen to Mitch as he actually travels, and do you eat more meals than necessary, eat smaller portions at more places, or make some cuts?

Hello d’boys, Emma and Yusong! Jimmy and Alice here writing from beautiful Glasgow, Scotland. Here we have a delicacy called a munchie box. It’s a takeaway pizza box containing a variety of delicious fried fast foods - pakora, onion rings, chips (“fries”), donner meat, even breakfast foods like egg and sausage. Our question to you is simple: what would you put in your ideal munchie box?

I listened to Mitch and Wiger try to remember what King Cakes are while returning to New Orleans from our Hurricane Ida evacuation, and I could barely keep it together it was so delightful. My question: What are your favorite seasonal treats that are also regional? Love, one of your three Black lady listeners.

Between Mitch and Wiger who would win in an eating contest in both in speed and in quantity. Ex: Wiger would win a hot dog contest because he can swallow them whole.

What's the fast food restaurant you've visited the most locations of, and how many different locations have you been to? I think I've gone to about 40 or so McDonalds in my life.

Hey all! My name is Valerie and I’m a huge fan! My question is: If you were stranded on a desert island and could only eat your standard 3 meals to survive where would they be and why? You cannot get breakfast and lunch/dinner from the same place! Example: no Big Mac if your going to get an egg McMuffin! I’m from Long Island and I hope to see you guys live soon!

Hey Doughfam! Love you all. During the pandemic I got super into Survivor and I’ve thought a lot about the contestants diet- consisting of a cup of rice a day and whatever other grub they can hunt and forage for themselves. Do you think you could survive the island diet and what food would do you think crave the most?
