This week we're reviving an defunct episode format titled You Are What You Eat, in which Dylan deep dives a piece of culinary history and brings it to the table! This week we're talking the weirdly intricate history of the Missouri Cheese Caves and how one war time era push to keep the dairy industry afloat resulted in free moldy cheese for the elderly and brought you the stuffed crust pizza you know and love today. There's a dark history behind the classic two word slogan Got Milk? and Dylan's here to share it with you!
