Hey Boys, So ever since I moved to the Bay Area a decade ago I've been pretty set on spending my food budget on good produce. In particular I love a farm that sells stone fruit in the summer and I always set aside $20 a week so I can gorge on nectarines and plums. What are the things in your food budget that you always set aside money for, no matter what? PS: Make Yusong the third Doughboy

Are there any video game themes that are consistent earworms for you? Ocarina of Time’s Happy Mask Salesman song is stuck in my head like 80-90% of the time. Also, should I see a therapist because of this?

Hi 'Boys...I recently traveled from Boston to Portland, OR and attempted to pack what I thought would be smart, healthy snacks for the flight. Found out the hard way that dried apricots have so much fiber and sugar in them that I spent the majority of the 6 hour flight in the bathroom with what I'll call a case of the "extreme rumblies." And that's putting it delicately. So my question is, what are your suggestions for the best, easiest, healthy snacks to bring on a flight? Keep on keeping, Dough Uncles. -Miriam

Hey guys, I think Mitch has mentioned it before but it hasn’t been talked about a lot, and that is the value driven happy hour/bar specials at chains. For example, all you can eat apps at Friday’s or half price apps and drinks, plus the one dollar special drinks at Applebee’s. This leads to the question, what is your favorite chain to drink/ actually just hang out at? Or the more interesting question: is this even an acceptable thing to once you’re past the stage of college budgeting but have not entered that retirement/ not giving a fuck stage?

Hi Doughboys! Nick is a notorious spiller. Which type of spill is more embarrassing, more of a social faux pas: drink spills or food spills? Thanks guys, writing from LA. Hi Yusong!

I've always appreciated Wiger's use of the phrase "the rumblies", it perfectly describes the feeling after a rich meal. What are each of your techniques for dealing with "the rumblies" and what is your worst experience dealing with them?

One thing that has always impressed me about Doughboys is the amount of female guests that get invited onto the show. Is this a conscious decision? Either way, it's has exposed me to a lot of female comedians and writers I may not have otherwise known. So thank you!
Michael Welch

Do you have a contingency plan for if you actually have to fire Yusong. With all the fake firing I’m not sure he would appreciate the gravity of the real situation.

I live in a tourist town, Traverse City, MI, that has developed a relatively large reputation as a food and drink destination over the past few years. I think it's great, as the tourism dollars keep my favorite restaurants open throughout the year and they probably wouldn't all be around without that income. What's your dream food vacation town?

Fast food breakfast sandwiches tend to be variations on meat, egg, and cheese on a choice of bread. All fillings being equal, what do you think is the best bread option? Bagel, biscuit, English muffin, toast, croissant, McGriddle? I think bagels are the most filling/substantial but the hardest to eat, the toughness often causes the filling to shoot out. I’m team biscuit for sure.

Hey doughboys!
This is Ollie from Boulder Colorado.
Had a question about chain resteraunt drinks for you guys.
One of my favorite things about going to chain resteraunts is the prospect of cheap alcoholic bevs.
Some of my favorites being the texas Roadhouse margaritas with the sugar rim and the strawberry Dollaritas from applebees. That's right $1 for a pint of strawberry flavoured margaritas, and they do not limit you on those bad boys.
Anyways. What are your guys favorite chain resteraunt cocktails or beers?
Thanks Guys. Spoonation

Hi Doughboys! Like you, I enjoy all manner of restaurants from fast food to fine dining. With my busy schedule, I find myself patronizing fast food restaurants more often than I’d like when I’d really rather be cooking or sitting down at restaurant serving up delicious, less mass-produduced fare. While I love burgers and the typical fast food menu, I wish there were more varied options when I’m heading through that drive through. My question to you is, what type of cuisine do you wish was better represented in America’s Quick Service Restaurants?

How do you feel about food that's been engineered to taste like other foods? I've seen this a lot in the chip category, where I once tried some Doritos that tasted surprisingly like a cheeseburger. I also had a really tasty bag of chicken and waffle flavored Lay's. On the Chili's episode, I recall Mitch was weirded out by how much the Dr. Pepper ribs tasted like Dr. Pepper. I was wondering if there were any executions of it that you thought were particularly well done or any you are interested in trying.

Question for Mitch- you said (maybe on a different podcast) that you got a dishwasher and it's been good for your cooking at home. What kind is it? I spend way too much time washing dishes and I'd love to buy one on your recommendation.

Hey Doughboys. I'm an Australian living in Vancouver and I've noticed that one of the most common sides here (besides poutine) is yam fries with a smoky chipotle mayo for dippin'. It's ubiquitous. The Aussie equivalent is potato wedges with a side of sour cream and Thai sweet chilli sauce. So my question is this: what lesser-known, specific regional food do you think has the potential to become popular nation wide? Thanks for all you do and Burger Brigade for life. Ben from Vancouver.

My friends and I were eating at Claim Jumper one time and I completely cleaned my chicken fried steak plate. When the waiter came back he said “whoa, you did hella good on that!” And I’m not sure why, but my coy response was “well I was a hungry boy.” My question is: have you ever inadvertently flirted with a server?

Have you ever thought about filming an episode, either live or in house, and releasing it as a video pod? I've seen other podcasts do this as well as interchange animation into the videos and think it could work well on your Podcast.
If you have tried it, what did/didn't work?

I know Wiger is a SoCal surfer dude and assume Mitch has spent some some of his summers at the Cape, so surely the Doughboys are no strangers to the beach. What are your thoughts on eating at the beach? Personally, I love the beach and I love to eat, so I find it a natural pairing. Others complain it’s too hot and sand gets everything ruining the meal and the beach day. There’s also a middle ground for some who enjoy snacks at the beach but never a meal. Where does the Doughboys brain trust stand on this issue? Love the podcast. Thank you for your service.

How do you feel about the Oscar's new "Popular Film Category"? People always complain that the Oscar's award pretentious movies that nobody sees, but is there anything wrong with that? Many of the most popular artists that our world has known died penny-less and forgotten until their work was lauded years later (Van Gogh, Rembrandt, etc.). I feel that this new category will just rocket us quicker towards the world of Ready Player One where we can only indulge in pop culture or nostalgic shlock (such as movies like Ready Player One) because now they will be raking in box office earnings as well as superficial awards.

I’d like to get the Doughboys’ opinions on McDonalds new French Toast McGriddle. My wife and I have been debating the concept since we first saw it two days ago. I think that it’s weird that they call a sandwich made on French toast a McGriddle when the McGriddle is a sandwich defined by its bun/bread—or whatever that pancake substance is. If it’s french toast, it’s not a McGriddle. She says that since it’s made on a griddle at McDonalds, it’s a McGriddle.

Hey ‘boys! What is the most corrupted, messed up fast food version of a non-fast food meal you have ever had? For example, when fast food burger places try to make more upscale gastro-pubby burgers, they’re often worse than their standard fare. Thanks for the great show and hey Yusong what’s up

Being recently married, I’ve found myself change eating habits drastically. Only going out on occasions and cooking regularly at home. We mix it up quite a bit but we generally eat similar variations of the same thing over and over. How do you mix-up what your having nightly, outside of picking up and going to a restaurant? Pre planned meal services, recipes you find on line, or do you find your self eating a variation of the same meals weekly. Love the show. Keep doing what you’re doing!

I've always thought that this was vastly superior to Rain-forest cafe, what do you think?

We know that Mitch barely cooks and outside of a hot salad or a bowl of bleu cheese with croutons, we don’t know what Nick likes to whip up in the kitchen. If the Doughboys were on a cooking competition, akin to an Iron Chef or Cutthroat Kitchen, who would win? (Side note: I think a cooking skills competition could easily replace the next Munch Madness - although I love those, too).

Hey guys,
I was eating cashews the other day and came to the conclusion that they are the shrimp of nuts. Not only are they the same shape, but if either are out at a party, I'll eat too many and get a tummy ache. I began comparing other nuts to seafoods. You will undoubtedly agree that pistachios are the mussels of nuts. I also believe that macadamia nuts are the scallops of nuts, in both appearance and how fancy they are. Will you please pair the other nuts (pea, hazel, wal, etc.) to their seafood counterparts?

If you guys ever have children, will you create and enforce any video game rules/limits? For example, my kid is only allowed to play 1.5 hours of video games a day and no first-person shooter games.

"Why does anybody in the world ever eat anything but breakfast food?" We need some more fast-food breakfast talk on the podcast! Is Mitch's inability to wake up before 11am the major hold-up?

I recently saw a woman at a fancy restaurant eating alone and she was watching something on her phone the whole time, wearing headphones. Do you think this is acceptable dining etiquette? Is it the same as reading a book at the table?

Nick, why does Mitch get so embarrassed about liking pro wrestling and act like you’re the only proponent of these wrestling excursions? Do you think he secretly has a box of worn out Hasbro WWF action figures under his bed?

You've talked about food movies before (GoodFellas, Big Night, etc), but what are some of your favorite food/fast food scenes in TV? Seinfeld's obsession with candy (Jr Mints, Jujubeans, O! Henry, etc.), Tony Soprano eating meat right out of the refrigerator, and the Futurama episode with the Popplers, all come to mind.

After some experimentation at In-N-Out I've decided that a Double Double is WAY better without the lettuce or tomato. My standard order now is a Double Double Armen Weitzman style with no lettuce or tomato. I've always felt the lettuce and tomato make everything slide around and mask the taste of the cheese and meat. I know you love a Hot Salad, Nick, but what are your thoughts on the merit of veggies in a burger? In the abstract, of course, not necessarily just In-N-Out.

Hey Boys, recently listened to your Panera episode and had a comment/question. Panera is getting sued in MA because a parent placed an online order noting a peanut allergy and the worker actually added peanut butter to a grilled cheese sandwich (insane). Have either of you had a special request at a restaurant get completely misinterpreted in a completely illogical way?

If you could only have one condiment for the rest of your life, which one would you choose? Also, we debated if guacamole and salsa counted as condiments but ultimately decided to leave them out of the question as they are on the dip/condiment border. Do you agree with this assessment or would you include them?

Though the premises that cereal is a soup and hotdogs are a sandwich have been made, I feel like no one has really considered that chili cheese fries are a salad. What do you think? Would you agree, as far as a bed of veggies topped with a dressing is concerned, that they are one hell of a hot salad? Also Waluigi should be a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Hey bros! I like 7-11 slurpees, my brother likes slush puppies (or chunkier ice style frozen confections). Can you please settle this dispute for us? His argument is that you can pick any flavor puppy, mine is that the 7-11 texture is more pleasant. Please leave any pina colada flavor residue out of your judgements and say hi to the suss for us! Thanks and good snackin'

Are there any chains whose food you like, but you avoid because the smell of their food is too pungent? (For instance, i love Jack in the Box, but I can’t bring it home or eat it in my car because it lingers for days!)

What's up, hotdogs (i mean, uh, doughcats). I have one question for Mitch and one for Nick. Mitch, why is your voice so different on Hollywood Handbook? Are you playing a character there, or is your voice on Doughboys the character? Nick, do you have any tips for Sonic Mania? I grew up as a Nintendo guy, and I suck at Sonic, but it's pretty fun. Keep up the good (ok, let's be honest, all right) work!

Hey boys. At Clusterfest, you were asked about the most emotional eating experience you've ever had (I believe it was the most depressed meal you've had). Mitch and Gabrus gave great answers but Nick skipped this question. Nick, could you please revisit this question and provide your answer?

Hey guys,
I've been fortunate enough to experience a few family vacations aboard a cruise ship over the years. In my experience, the food is always one of the most talked about aspects of a cruise vacation. I'm curious if you have any experience with cruise ships and your thoughts on the quality and service of the dining options. If you have enough experience between the two of you (and your guest), I'd be interested to hear your rankings by brand. If all else fails, perhaps this question will lead to a future Doughboys tour in the Caribbean. You're welcome.
Much love,
@kidklumpy

Hi Nick, Mitch and Yusong!
My wife and I are visiting California for the first time this fall and are spending a few nights in LA during our trip.
My question is: If you had to organize a 1-day only-in-LA meal plan for first time visitors, what would your restaurant suggestions be for an awesome breakfast, lunch and dinner?
Thanks!
