Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's time for foody Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
And this is Neil tomorrow two to five pm, as
I said, and it's all things food.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Okay, let's start Neil with oreo.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
No, no, no, let's leave that because that's a little light.
Can we start with alcohol?
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Uh sure?
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Okay, this is why, because the holidays are here and
this happens all the time. You and I have talked
about this a bazillion times. Coffee is one that comes
back and forth. Eggs are one that come back and
forth in terms of health. If in terms of health
and alcohol is well. The drinking debate continues to go on.
There's a new government report that is looking at the
(00:39):
risks and the possible benefits of moderate alcohol use. Again,
the government continues to do these studies and say we
need to know what to tell people. Scientifically, they all
agree over indulging in alcohol is bad. It's not good
for your system. I mean, it's kind of a poison
(01:00):
as far as the alcohol part is. But of course,
depending on the type of alcohol you're using, whether it's
a line or if you're using spirits, and how you're
using them and what you're mixing them with, it really depends.
So they go back and forth, and really they're trying
to find what that moderate line is, what is moderate
(01:20):
alcohol consumption and at what point does it become damaging
because they're having a little alcohol may help you live
longer in some of the studies. So yet again, the
most recent study released by the National Academies of Science, Engineering,
(01:41):
Medicine have concluded that this little alcohol may help you. However,
it finds alcohol could raise your risk of certain types
of cancer.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
It's so weird they do it because you're right, avocados, eggs, alcohol, coffee.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
It changes.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Not only does it change year to year, it changes
month to month where it's either healthier not healthy, and
it even breaks down it's unhealthy for women, but it's
healthy for men.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Yeah, or you use it on Tuesdays and it's fine.
But you remember when eggs were demonized, and now they're like, yeah,
if you have an egg and a you're fine.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
You're you know.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
But then it was like limit your eggs because of cholesterol.
And then we found out not too long ago that
food cholesterol is absorbed into the body much less than
they thought. It has a much less of an impact
down talk to your doctor. I'm not a doctor. But
there is we absorbed the food cholesterol different than you know,
(02:36):
a lot of its genetica to.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Be we had uh but Neil and I had breakfast
yesterday with some management people here.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
We were sucking up to them and you ordered it.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
I did, no sucking.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
You ordered you did?
Speaker 4 (02:48):
You ordered egg whites? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:51):
I like that, you know, and I ordered egg yellows. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Just yeah, you and I would be a good husband
and wife team.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
You know, the lean in the fat.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
No.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
I like the taste of egg whites with uh, you know,
cheddar cheese and ham. I just so sometimes I just
preferred It's not like, you know, healthy. You don't look
at me and say, oh, that guy's really trying to
cut it down.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
No, it wasn't that.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
It just sometimes I'm in the mood for egg whites
and they're not particularly flavorful.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
But with ham and stuff like that, I just like
the texture.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Good.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Hell. You get eggs from a small farmer or people
they keep eggs in the backyard and or chickens in
the backyard, which I don't know too many who.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Do a lot of people do these days.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Those eggs are so fresh and flavor They're wonderful.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
They're they're amazing.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
And the thing is, you know, there's I have this
thing that they're still trying to figure out what it
is where my body and some of the meds I'm
on react to certain foods. Eggs one of them, the
foods that have sulfur in them, and so I do
also sometimes back off on the yolks because of that,
just so you know. So anyway, so this guidelines for
(04:10):
twenty twenty five, the dietary guidelines haven't changed much. You know,
you're better off not drinking out alcohol. If you are
drinking alcohol or having it with dinner, you're better off
with a wine than you are, you know, and red
wines have a lot of you know, benefits to that.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
You're and you're much more sophisticated, yes, exactly. Having also
if you're a drug yeah, yeah, a whyo, serve me
some a box of Phronsia wine.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
You know.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
I was with law enforcement, hanging out with law enforcement
probably I think it was on the Tim and Neal
Show many many years ago, and I was out there
out and about and they were doing stops and it
was like an alcohol checkpoint or something like sobriety checkpoint
and a guy rolls up in his car, because once
you get in that line, you can't get out, otherwise
(04:58):
they go after you. Right, he had the brightest it
was almost like day glow red bottle on him, and
it was Boons Farm or whatever that was. It was
so bright. Addie had a crack pipe on him. It
was pretty crazy. They obviously he got arrested, but I
remember thinking when they shine the light in the air,
(05:19):
how bright that was. Yeah, the worst. That's a different
kind of whyo. But just something to think about. And
if you don't drink, you're probably better off not drinking
than adding it to your your life these days, I like,
I like a good belt myself.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Oh yeah, no, I've seen you. You know you're doing
hard spirits. Oh absolutely, I love the Browns. I loved my.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Whiskeys adult beverages as libations.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Yes, sure, Okay.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Anyway, Neil, you're talking about six new Oreo treats.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
So they keep coming up with it now some of
its flavors and then some of its style. They have
their Game Day Oreos which have different embossments. You know
how you have that embossed image of the Oreo on
top of the Oreo cookies.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
The actual chocolate cookies.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Well, they have their game day ones which are coming
out and those have you know, footballs on them and
different things like that on the embossment. But they have
the Oreo loaded which is not only an Oreo with
the you know, the double stuff in there, but now
it's Oreo flavored stuffing. So inside they actually have bits
(06:33):
of the chocolate cookie you know, like cookies and cream
whipped up in the filling.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
You know, I don't know who comes up with this stuff,
but have they reached the point where the testing people,
you know, to manage people whoever decides are going to
release this.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Someone says, oh, come on, really.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
They keep putting them out.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
As a matter of fact, you have a couple different
things in different forms. They have the Golden Oreo Cakesters
and there are some Cakester flavor is coming out and
that's where the cookie part is more like a cake.
It's fluffy and then it has the cream on the inside.
They also have the Oreo Bites, which are little ice
cream like bond bonds, their little ice cream flavors as
(07:14):
well that they have in there. A couple of the
flavors going on. The Oreo minis will come out in
the peanut butter that bite sized ones. They have their
original thin cookies filled with Irish cream flavored cream which
apparently has notes of chocolate and vanilla in the cream.
So as these things come out, that's going to be
(07:35):
in January. So these they keep figuring out different ways
to put them together, like the Oreo Frozen treats, the
Oreo Bites, Oreo Mini Bars will be available in January
as well.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
A couple things about Oreo.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
The brand itself is so valuable that yeah, you're gonna
see Oreo branded clothes pretty soon because it's I'd wear that, Yeah,
I mean the brand Now what a tuxedo is?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yeah, pretty much and I understand.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
And and they're gonna be and the flavor of the
year because people say, what you do this? What's coming
out next year? Oh yeah, okay, here's mine. The Oreo
flavor is gonna be the smoked macro Oreo, which is
going to be hugely popular.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Well you know what, actually, you know what would be.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
I don't know that they've done this, but you might
have just accidentally done something. And that is one of
the flavors of the year they've been excited about. You know,
all these food you know, magazines, whatever put out these
things is brown sugar. Brown sugar is coming into its
(08:43):
own right now, being used in cocktails, being used in coffees,
being used in all these different things. I think that
the molasses because basically it's an unrefined sugar with molasses
in it. I think that would make a good oreo filling.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
And Neil does this.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
I don't know if you're gonna do it next week
or you do it at the beginning of the year,
but you always come up with your prognostications what is
going to be hot. For example, pump you years ago,
you picked up on pumpkin spice early days, and you said,
this is going to explode people.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Back then, people didn't put any spice in their pumpkin.
It was bland as hell until the four Report came out.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Well, I don't give yourself that much credit, but you
know you caught it early days.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
You're not Winston Churchill.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Nineteen thirty two talking about Hitler right before anybody.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Else, dumbass.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
No, what I actually what I do is I look
at a lot of these things and then kind of
call through them and tell you what I think, which
ones I think will come to fruition or.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Not smoked salmon birthday cake.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I would make that for you in a heartbeat, and
I would stand and above you until you finished every
last drop.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
There's some good stuff out there.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
They're really and there's gonna be some interesting combinations. And
you talk about that too, that really weren't expected. Different
combinations of spices and.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
What just heat is not going away right now. Sweet
and savory, sweet and salty, all those things are still powerful.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
But the heat.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
People are still trying to when it comes to food,
find any way to add spice to it. I don't
think that's going away anytime soon. However, this super hot
stuff has been controversial because of you know, a child
being hurt or being hospitalized. We're finding out that some
(10:44):
of these foods that they're eating, flaming hot this, and
flaming hot that they're eating kids are eating on the
daily are not.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
Good for that.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
That makes a lot of sense, plus.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
The dyes and the garbage in that.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
When you talk about heat, when you talk about spice
that is hot, spice, spicy, there's two issues there.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
One is flavor and the other one is just pure heat.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Yeah, Capsaican itself is an oil that is that holds
all that heat.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
That's what we basically it doesn't have a flavor.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
No, they can't. They do. They can have grassy fill.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
No, no, you're talking about capsation.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Yeah, but the the the capsaicin is creating the heat. Yes,
but there is flavors within that heat depending on where
what what the chili or the product is that is
building that has the cap saicon in it. So there
are some wonderful flavors that come with hot, with heat
(11:41):
as well. But now we're just basically injecting the capsaicin,
which is which is why you don't want to drink
water to cool down, you know how, people, it doesn't
do anything. That's why you have to do milk or
a dairy product that encapsulates the oil and the caps
sayson and that truly mellows it out.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
All right, We're done with foody Friday tomorrow, done with
you tomorrow two to five pm. You might as well
pitch Saturday morning, six am. It starts with the dean
sharp with the house whisper, and then I'm here eight
to eleven, Hello house, I'm eight to You're a beautiful house. Okay,
eight to eleven with handle on the law.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Get your doors in your windows.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Handle on the law. Eight to eleven, practice.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Bad advice, the law whisperer, and I know what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Two to five pm is the fourth report.
