- Dan Pashman and Mark Garrison first met while working on The Bryant Park Project, a short-lived but much-beloved show on NPR. Mark was a newscaster and Dan was a producer and regular on-air contributor, and they soon discovered that they thought more about food than most normal people. In January 2010, a year-and-a-half after the end of the BPP, The Sporkful was born.
- The Sporkful is a podcast and blog about food, but not so much about cooking or recipes or restaurants. We discuss and debate the most ridiculous food-related minutiae, always seeking new and better ways to eat. We challenge your assumptions about consumption and drop a sporkful of knowledge on you, because we're obsessively compulsive about eating more awesomely, and because if history has taught us anything, it's that the hosts of food shows need a lot of catch phrases. That's why we like to say that The Sporkful is where sacred cows get grilled.
- This is all done in pursuit of a singular vision: The dream that someday, our ranks will grow to the point that we can establish Sporkful University, motto: Ruminate, Masticate, Promulgate. Please join us in that noble effort. Back to the home page...
