Man Bites World

Depending on your definition, there are somewhere between 190 and 245 countries in the world. Each has its own culinary history, tradition, and flavors; how many of these could one person hope to sample without an unlimited travel budget? Noah Galuten decided to find out by vowing to sample the food of a different country every single day, and he calls his odyssey “Man Bites World.” Galuten is an L.A. native and is doing most of his eating within driving distance of home, but he isn’t letting random events—like a short work stint in Las Vegas—relieve him of his one-country-a-day obligation. Today is Day 51 of Noah’s quest to taste the world, and Pat meets this gustatory explorer for an update on his effort.

 

Guests:

Noah Galuten (guh-LOO-tin), eater and writer of the blog “Man Bites World” (manbitesworld.com)
