The Secret Language of Food, from Pop-Tarts to Cheez Doodles

Linguist Dan Jurafsky investigates the language of food, from the
hidden meaning of adjectives on restaurant menus to the
psychological attraction of brand names like Cheerios and
Pop-Tarts. Plus, we hear how gospel star Mahalia Jackson became
famous for her fried chicken franchise; J. Kenji López-Alt gives
us tips on how to get young kids to eat adventurously; and we
make crispy German Pork Schnitzel.
