Reminding you that the very 5 00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:23.000 word companion, the root of it pan means bread. It 6 00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:26.960 means to break bread with somebody. And we're talking with 7 00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:30.760 people affected by the fires in January, not just ones 8 00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:34.880 that lost their homes that we are praying for, but 9 00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:38.000 because it's a food show, to those that either lost 10 00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:42.399 businesses or are finding didn't lose the structure, but are 11 00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:47.039 finding it hard to stay afloat when everybody's scattered everywhere 12 00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:49.399 because they can't be at home. Right now, we're talking 13 00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:53.399 with Teddy Seraphine Leonard. She's the owner of Real Inn. 14 00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:57.000 You must know it there in Malibu, seeing it as 15 00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:00.439 you drive the coast, which we are blessed in incredibly 16 00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:03.359 lucky to have here in southern California. It's the only 17 00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:06.159 thing worth the taxes, let's be honest. And I wanted 18 00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:08.079 her to talk a little bit more about the reel 19 00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:11.239 in because this is and has been an important part 20 00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:15.719 of the food scene and the comfort that food brings 21 00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:19.719 to southern California. Keep in mind you can find out 22 00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:24.280 more at reel in Malibu r e e l in 23 00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:28.560 Malibu dot com. There's a link there for a GoFundMe 24 00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:32.079 page that goes directly to the workers that have been 25 00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:34.840 working there for a long time. You said some like 26 00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:36.280 thirty years. 27 00:01:36.719 --> 00:01:39.319 Yes. In fact, two of the employees were there when 28 00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:42.439 my husband got the restaurant thirty seven years ago. 29 00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:43.200 Wow. 30 00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:46.120 And so they've been there longer than he has, and 31 00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:51.480 they're all sort of married to each other, and it's 32 00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:53.840 just it's kind of a unique story and that it 33 00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:54.560 is family. 34 00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:57.280 So you were telling one of the things that stood 35 00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:01.439 out that was very sweet to me, Teddy. You were 36 00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:05.799 talking about how, you know, the famous, the rich, we're 37 00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:10.240 standing next to surfers and you know, politicians and whatever, 38 00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:14.599 and food is the equalizer in that. I love that, 39 00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:18.000 you know, it's not a fancy place, but equalized everyone. 40 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:20.840 Oh, it really did. And it was funny because we 41 00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:23.599 would also get people that were going to you know, 42 00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:26.759 large galas and Malibu and they'd say, oh, we're stopping 43 00:02:26.759 --> 00:02:29.280 here to eat first, because they just you know, have 44 00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:32.719 these little finger things at the gatherings and we want 45 00:02:32.919 --> 00:02:35.039 we want a plate full of food, and our crew 46 00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:38.000 we would have to kind of say, guys, you don't 47 00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:42.080 want to keep throwing food away. They would overheat people's 48 00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:45.800 plates like they were at their own home in Mohaka. 49 00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:50.039 You know, we tried everything this long now, like okay, 50 00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:52.599 two scoops of that and two scoops of that with 51 00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:55.639 this particular spoof. None of it worked. They just did 52 00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:57.960 it like it was their mother trying to fatten them up. 53 00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:02.120 Oh my gosh, it was hilarious. Yeah, we couldn't. That 54 00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:06.639 was one thing. And just everything was fresh. Everything was 55 00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:10.520 made on site every day. The fish was delivered fresh 56 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:13.879 every single day, the same fish vendors that were delivering 57 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:18.479 the Maestros and Novu and the other restaurants, same fish, 58 00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:21.159 not the same price when we solved it, but we 59 00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.039 didn't have table claws or waiters or any of that. 60 00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:28.360 But we had really good fresh fish. And they made 61 00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:32.039 up the chipotle sauce, they made up the salsa, they 62 00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:34.039 made up all the spices for the Cajun and they 63 00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:36.000 did that. We were laughing and I said, I'd love 64 00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:38.680 to get the recipes. We talked about doing a cookbook. 65 00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:41.560 And putting the recipes and raise more money for the crew, 66 00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:46.879 and you know, they would grab handfuls of spices and 67 00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.360 you can't really quantify that. So I was trying to 68 00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:52.080 find we need if we do a cookbook, we need 69 00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:55.759 to have actual measurements on what you put in. And 70 00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:59.159 that's not how I mean. It was all very It 71 00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:02.360 was very much like I said, a mom and pop place. 72 00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:06.360 People knew us, they knew our crew, our crew knew them, 73 00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:09.919 and everybody felt like they owned it. You know. That 74 00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:12.039 was one thing my husband loved. It's a culture he 75 00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:16.279 set up. This belongs to the community, and you know, 76 00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:18.399 people would walk in and decide with their group, oh 77 00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:20.639 we're going to move these tables over here and move 78 00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:23.680 those chairs over there, and you know, they would do 79 00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:26.720 whatever they wanted to do. They'd bring their dogs out 80 00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:31.160 on the patio on the weekends and it was just 81 00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:33.759 it was lovely to have that kind of culture and 82 00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:36.319 that kind of gathering place for the community. And I 83 00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:39.040 hope even if we don't do it, I hope someone 84 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:42.759 else does. But our crew has all come back to 85 00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:45.839 us and said, look, we're going to you know, I said, 86 00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:47.920 I want you guys to get jobs because we don't 87 00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:50.319 know how long this is going to take, and I 88 00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:52.839 don't know how much more I can raise on the GoFundMe, 89 00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:55.800 And we've got a wait to see because our income 90 00:04:55.839 --> 00:05:00.439 obviously stopped when the restaurant shur down. And but they 91 00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:02.040 work for some of them, a couple of them. We 92 00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:04.120 have them coming up and doing yard work. 93 00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:07.160 For us, just to keep people. 94 00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:10.959 Yeah, yeah, and paying and being able to pay them. 95 00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:15.000 All of our crew was legal. Over the years, we 96 00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:19.279 had helped them get their green cards and their citizenship. 97 00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:25.040 But still they're concerned with what's happening, and I'm concerned 98 00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:27.560 for people with what's happening right now. 99 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:30.399 Yeah, we're hearing a lot of that obviously, and that's 100 00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:34.439 been something that has been throughout the food industry for 101 00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:37.920 a long time. And as I said earlier on the show, 102 00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:40.519 if there's people you don't want here because they're bad, 103 00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:43.079 then there should be people that you do want here 104 00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:46.759 because they're good, and you know, and being able to 105 00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:50.959 decide and have a system is the best way and 106 00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:57.439 the reasonable way. Just one more moment here, Heaven forbid. 107 00:05:57.480 --> 00:05:59.680 But you guys deserve your time too. You put in 108 00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:02.120 a lot of love, so you deserve your time too 109 00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:04.600 and are allowed for that, and hopefully someone takes that 110 00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:09.959 legacy with your guidance, What do you want people to 111 00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:13.360 remember or think? What do you I know we right 112 00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:16.399 now go to really in Malibu dot com click the 113 00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:20.160 links of the GoFundMe to help pay for the workers. 114 00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:21.839 It's not going to you and your husband, it's going 115 00:06:21.879 --> 00:06:23.959 to your workers. But what do you want them to 116 00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:26.920 think about when they think about that neon sign of 117 00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:30.959 the you know, the fish jumping and something that we've 118 00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:33.600 seen in Malibu forever? What do you want them to 119 00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:34.480 remember and think. 120 00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:39.800 About the spirit of Malibu, the community of Malibu, and 121 00:06:40.480 --> 00:06:44.199 to Panga in the Palisades that if you go to 122 00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:48.879 I hopefully still on our Instagram or our website. Many 123 00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:52.000 many people came forward with so many stories that I'd 124 00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:55.920 say the first two days, three actually two weeks after 125 00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.560 it burning down, I found myself I can only read 126 00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:01.480 two a day because I would just start crying. I 127 00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:05.560 was so moved by what other people felt they had lost. 128 00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:07.480 I mean, I know what my husband and I lost, 129 00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:12.120 but it was more impactful to us that all these 130 00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:17.439 other the community lost. It was a community loss. And yeah, 131 00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:21.040 so if we get to rebuild. We're hoping our son Jack, 132 00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:24.800 my step son, my husband's son. Jack is in the 133 00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.480 food industry. We're trying to convince him to come down 134 00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:30.560 and maybe, you know, take the lead on this because 135 00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:35.639 he does manage restaurants in Seattle. But not sure, not sure. 136 00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:37.439 I mean, I don't know what's happening. And I feel 137 00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:39.959 very badly for the restaurants in Malibu. And if people 138 00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:42.879 your listeners get a chance somehow they get to Malibou, 139 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:44.680 or that they take the one on one to Malibu 140 00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:48.920 Canyon and go over, there are wonderful restaurants that really 141 00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:51.839 need your patronage right now that are going through such 142 00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:54.439 a hard time. Their businesses are down by like eighty 143 00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:58.480 percent from last year, and ours burned down in a 144 00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:02.759 weird way. We were blessed we had insurance and you know, 145 00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:05.680 otherwise we would be going through our savings like we 146 00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:09.199 did during COVID. And I think that's something that if 147 00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:12.120 people go to the beach, it's lovely, you know, maybe 148 00:08:12.120 --> 00:08:14.800 not in the water, but look at. 149 00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:18.360 It, look at it, take pictures, don't stip in it. 150 00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:21.639 Yeah, you know, I'm not The reports are great, but 151 00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:24.120 you know, there's some lovely places like oh see that. 152 00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.759 Just these these restaurants really they need they need us 153 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:31.720 right now.

And Kayla and I 189 00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:20.679 have been very focused and dedicated to making sure you 190 00:10:20.759 --> 00:10:23.000 know about these people that are affected by these things 191 00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:26.879 as well, and we'll keep doing it. But talking to 192 00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:33.960 Rudy from Grasias signor and talking to Teddy from Real 193 00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:37.600 In there in Malibu via the phone to hear her 194 00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:41.799 story thirty seven years ago or husband bought real In. 195 00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:46.120 We've all seen that stuff, telling stories about Beckham going 196 00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:49.519 in there and just I mean, and how it was 197 00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:52.360 an equalizer. You know, everybody who came in was the same. 198 00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:55.279 They didn't care if you were famous or not. And 199 00:10:55.320 --> 00:10:58.919 how you were getting the same cut, the same fish 200 00:10:59.480 --> 00:11:03.399 quality from the same people as high end white clothed 201 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:07.360 linen cloth tables were getting and you weren't paying those 202 00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:11.480 prices for it. That's often the way it goes. It's 203 00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:14.039 often the way it goes. There are so many the 204 00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:18.799 more hands involved, the more things involved, is the costlier. 205 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:23.840 It gets very inspired about those things. Also, Bill Handle 206 00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:27.480 got his big Green egg and he has been wanting it. 207 00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:30.399 His new wife, Lindsay, has said that he has not 208 00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:34.399 shut up about it for months because he was so excited. 209 00:11:34.519 --> 00:11:37.600 And then I hosted Handle at my house one day 210 00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:40.320 for lunch. I said, come over, I showed him mine, 211 00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:42.960 I cooked lunch for him, and the two of us 212 00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.879 just sat out on my front porch eating and talking 213 00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:49.039 about food and the techniques you can do with the 214 00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:50.320 big green egg and all of that. 215 00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:51.919 So he's excited. 216 00:11:51.960 --> 00:11:54.080 He decided that's what he wanted at his new place 217 00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:57.960 in Orange County, and so she sent me pictures of 218 00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:03.480 it and that he's super excited and it's just one 219 00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:07.399 of those interesting days where food and philosophy and what 220 00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:10.679 it means to us and why food is so powerful 221 00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:13.639 in our lives, those flavors and textures that put a 222 00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:16.960 smile on our face, the love that is created, you know, 223 00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:20.399 when somebody makes you food that makes it tastes better 224 00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:23.519 than if you were doing it yourself. So we still 225 00:12:23.559 --> 00:12:25.399 have more to come, and then we'll talk with Tiffany. 226 00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:29.480 Of course, Tiffany's coming aboard at five o'clock, so go 227 00:12:30.039 --> 00:12:32.200 know where. We'll be back with more.

It's 233 00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:51.720 one of those nights where my curious little artistic brain 234 00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:55.159 was going all over the place looking things up, materials 235 00:12:55.360 --> 00:12:56.519 to build with and all. 236 00:12:56.440 --> 00:12:57.039 Kinds of things. 237 00:12:57.879 --> 00:12:59.559 By the way, I would love for you to hang 238 00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:03.360 out with a us on social media at fork Reporter 239 00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:05.960 on Instagram at fork Reporter. We have a good time there. 240 00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:08.399 I put up memes trying to think bring people joy 241 00:13:08.759 --> 00:13:11.480 through there. Put up a picture of my wife and 242 00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:15.320 me on our wedding day. I love that lady. A 243 00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:19.320 bust of chops, but I love that lady, and she 244 00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:22.639 treats me like gold, and I hope she gets the 245 00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:27.080 same treatment in return. But we just had our seventeenth anniversary, 246 00:13:27.159 --> 00:13:31.159 so I put that up. And otherwise it's funny goofy 247 00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:34.240 stuff up there, always having a good time. And then 248 00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:37.399 if you're artistically inclined or you like art or building, 249 00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:40.159 if you're a maker or a creator or anything like that. 250 00:13:40.759 --> 00:13:48.720 My newest one is Savco Industries saa vco Industries on Instagram. 251 00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:51.120 And that's just things I do at my shop. 252 00:13:51.320 --> 00:13:54.559 And I have a small business where I do promotional 253 00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:57.559 light and some light fabrications, some props and stuff like that. 254 00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:01.399 But it's not really not it's not open to the 255 00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:03.600 public currently or I don't sell the public or anything 256 00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:05.799 like that. But I ended up using that name because 257 00:14:05.799 --> 00:14:08.799 I already had it, So I'm not selling anything on there, 258 00:14:08.840 --> 00:14:12.639 at least not at this point. I've talked to friends 259 00:14:12.639 --> 00:14:15.080 about doing opening up to some things, but right now 260 00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:17.679 it's just like, hey, look I made this for my son, 261 00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:20.039 or I'm doing this or working on a project, and 262 00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:21.720 I'd love for you to check that out if you 263 00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:29.519 have time as well at savcosaa VCO Industries dot com. 264 00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:33.679 And I like, you know, Star Wars and building things. 265 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:37.200 I like Halloween and decorating for the holidays and all 266 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:39.360 kinds of stuff. So you want to do that or 267 00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:41.080 you just want to see that different side of what 268 00:14:41.159 --> 00:14:43.840 I do when it's not involved with food. 269 00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:44.240 Or the show. 270 00:14:44.639 --> 00:14:48.320 Check that out, all right, Texas wants to ban well, 271 00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:51.240 there's a Texas bill rather that wants to rename the 272 00:14:51.279 --> 00:14:56.080 New York Strips at stake to Texas strip I know, 273 00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:58.879 we're still dealing with Gulf of America and all that stuff. 274 00:14:59.279 --> 00:15:03.120 So this is an interesting one because ultimately it's like 275 00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:07.840 anything else, it's rare, but there are still new cuts 276 00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:11.440 of meat that are come across. You know, the animal 277 00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:14.320 is fabricated and to the best of the ability to 278 00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:16.679 use every single part of the animal. That's the way 279 00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:17.120 to do it. 280 00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:18.039 You know. 281 00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:22.600 I have this conversation with my son last night. We 282 00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:27.279 were at BJ's. I know, fancy right for our seventeenth anniversary, 283 00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:31.039 but we want to do something as family and we 284 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:35.000 like Bjy's and it's a fun atmosphere, so we went 285 00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:38.000 out there in Glendale by the Americana, and we had 286 00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:40.720 a wonderful, wonderful evening. It was packed and there's a 287 00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:44.360 good vibrant crowd there of different types of people and 288 00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:47.279 young and old and everything else. But my son had 289 00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:53.000 never had bone in wings, you know, because kids say 290 00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:56.600 everything is a chicken tender or a nugget. 291 00:15:57.279 --> 00:15:59.000 And I said, I want you to have these. I 292 00:15:59.039 --> 00:16:00.559 want you to try them. 293 00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:04.799 There's a cartoon he watches where that they're obsessed with wings. 294 00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:08.399 And he tried them and he enjoyed them, and he, 295 00:16:09.240 --> 00:16:11.759 you know, he was like, this is fantastic, this is 296 00:16:11.840 --> 00:16:15.919 really wonderful, and really enjoyed them. And you think, well, 297 00:16:17.320 --> 00:16:19.799 this is an animal. And he goes, this is from 298 00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:21.679 the animal, right, from a chicken. And I said, yeah, 299 00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:23.759 and that's why the bones are here, and explain that. 300 00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:26.279 And he asked a bunch of questions and I told him, 301 00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:28.519 I said, if you're going to take the life of 302 00:16:28.559 --> 00:16:34.559 an animal out of respect, you use all of it, 303 00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:37.159 every little piece you can, even the bones for making 304 00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:40.799 your stock or doing what you use everything you can. 305 00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:44.679 And so we come up with new cuts on a 306 00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:49.720 rare occasion. But basically you're parsing the animal and fabricating 307 00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:51.840 it down to certain parts and certain cuts that are 308 00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:55.320 well known. Now as far as the history of these cuts, 309 00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:57.679 you get you kind of name them when you can 310 00:16:57.720 --> 00:17:00.360 trace them back to a person or a place and 311 00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:01.519 this was its origin. 312 00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:02.600 You know. 313 00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:06.200 I suppose you can call a margarita whatever you want, 314 00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:11.039 you know, but it's like, at what point, you know, 315 00:17:11.079 --> 00:17:13.279 do I care if someone calls it a Texas steak? 316 00:17:13.319 --> 00:17:15.799 I don't, Well, I know what the hell it is. 317 00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:17.880 No, I'm going to say it's a New York strip 318 00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:20.400 because that's what it is to me when I see it. 319 00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:24.039 If I saw that cut raw in a package without 320 00:17:24.039 --> 00:17:25.559 a label on it, I'd go, that's a New York 321 00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:29.960 strip right there. And that just makes it easier. In 322 00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:32.960 some areas, something's a regional. What was the thing that 323 00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:35.640 you said was the Pittsburgh medium. 324 00:17:35.759 --> 00:17:38.400 Oh yeah, Pittsburgh medium steak, And what is that described 325 00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:40.519 to people? Don't know? That's how I like my stake prepared. 326 00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:43.960 Is really charred on the outside and then medium slash 327 00:17:44.240 --> 00:17:45.319 rare on the inside. 328 00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:49.799 So that's a regional thing. Now, there are things I 329 00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:53.880 was telling you in the Latino community, Mexicans in particular 330 00:17:53.920 --> 00:17:56.759 a lot of times like it's super charred on the outside, 331 00:17:57.119 --> 00:17:59.799 and when you're growing up, depending if you came straight 332 00:17:59.839 --> 00:18:06.519 from a Latin America, you probably want it well done 333 00:18:06.839 --> 00:18:12.079 because you didn't trust the meat necessarily. So, you know, 334 00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:14.640 as people are here in the States more and more, 335 00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:17.440 then they switch to chart on the outside and medium 336 00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:21.519 on the inside. But there's all these different things that 337 00:18:21.559 --> 00:18:24.640 are regional, and sometimes the names may be different. There 338 00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:28.160 are you know, flank steaks, flap steaks. There's all kinds 339 00:18:28.200 --> 00:18:30.680 of different names, and sometimes there's different names for the 340 00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:31.319 same cut. 341 00:18:31.480 --> 00:18:32.720 So it does happen. 342 00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:37.200 And depending on where you are, if you're buying in 343 00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:43.519 a certain butcher or a certain a marketplace, it might 344 00:18:43.559 --> 00:18:49.359 be called something different. This seems like just a marketing thing. 345 00:18:49.880 --> 00:18:52.200 You know, you could call it whatever you want. You 346 00:18:52.200 --> 00:18:54.559 can say it's a Texas steak, and then beneath it 347 00:18:54.680 --> 00:18:59.680 say a specially prepared New York strip whatever. So I 348 00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:01.920 don't know if this is gonna go anywhere as to 349 00:19:02.000 --> 00:19:07.920 what this means, but trying to get it to immortalize, 350 00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:11.319 you know, a new name when it's been New York 351 00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:13.039 State steak for so long. 352 00:19:13.119 --> 00:19:14.200 I'm curious as how. 353 00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:17.279 This is is going to play out, but we shall 354 00:19:17.279 --> 00:19:21.599 see another battle that is heated and technically means nothing. 355 00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:24.519 It's the Fork Report on Neil Viadra KFI AM six 356 00:19:24.599 --> 00:19:26.599 forty heard everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. 357 00:19:27.319 --> 00:19:30.319 You're listening to the Fork Report with Nil Savedra on 358 00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:32.920 demand from KFI AM six forty. 359 00:19:35.319 --> 00:19:38.039 I am your well fed host, Neil Savedra, Thanks for 360 00:19:38.079 --> 00:19:39.359 hanging out today. 361 00:19:40.519 --> 00:19:41.559 King Ding Dong. 362 00:19:43.440 --> 00:19:47.200 Hot Dog can take thirty minutes off your life.

Everything you do 367 00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:09.440 exhausts your last breath. I mean, everything you do is 368 00:20:09.519 --> 00:20:13.480 taking from your life, source from your whatever bag, your 369 00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:17.440 human battery.

The truth of the matter is there are things. 373 00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:34.359 Nutrition is nutrients are nutrients are nutrients. We've said this 374 00:20:34.440 --> 00:20:37.759 on the show a million times. It sees nutrients. It 375 00:20:37.799 --> 00:20:41.519 sees protein. It doesn't see a candy bar, it doesn't 376 00:20:41.519 --> 00:20:44.240 see a salad. It's not how your body works. Doesn't 377 00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:46.839 care what it is. It takes the nutrients it can 378 00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:52.559 and it uses them. The problem comes down to when 379 00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:59.079 we doctor up things. It becomes highly processed foods. We've 380 00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:02.559 talked about this a bazillion times. Once they become processed 381 00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:04.880 that we put nitrates, We put all kinds of things in, 382 00:21:05.319 --> 00:21:09.599 and so the good you know, meat, even a hot 383 00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:12.559 dog has B twelve, it has things in it that 384 00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:16.799 are good for you, that are nutrients. It'll pull those out. 385 00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:19.319 It's the bad stuff, and the good outweighs the bad. 386 00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:22.160 Bad outweighs the good. We're trying to balance these things out. 387 00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:26.000 But what this very study does that people don't. 388 00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:26.680 Talk about. 389 00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:31.640 Is it proves that balancing these things and eating a 390 00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:33.160 variety is the key. 391 00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:35.640 Because if it takes thirty. 392 00:21:35.359 --> 00:21:37.799 Six minutes off your life here and then adds twenty 393 00:21:37.839 --> 00:21:41.160 five minutes on your life here, supposedly really hard thing 394 00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:43.640 to calculate, by the way, and not a very fair study, 395 00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:46.400 but it's got a sexy headline and everybody wants to 396 00:21:46.440 --> 00:21:50.039 talk about it that it's just about balancing things out, 397 00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:53.599 because what you'll see is that most people die about 398 00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:57.839 on average the same unless there's something that just breaks down, 399 00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:01.319 and that's going to be genetic. It's just there's going 400 00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:04.920 to be some things. Just like they have cars that 401 00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:07.160
