Who Eats A Bag Of Dried Mango On The Couch?

This week's bonus mini episode of The Sporkful podcast is up! Listen through the player or iTunes/Podcasts app. (And please subscribe!)

Is there a difference between portable snacks and sedentary snacks? Or is one of the pleasures of adulthood living without rules? Marisa and her boyfriend Alex can't agree.

A granola bar may be the perfect food to grab when you're on the go, but Alex will eat one on the couch. That drives Marisa crazy when she's running out the door and there are no granola bars left for her to take. She says when Alex is home, he should eat a sedentary snack like a bowl of cereal, something you can't take with you so easily.

Meanwhile Alex is a self-described hedonist -- He says everyone should be able to eat whatever they want whenever they want.

In this Sporkful bonus mini-episode, Marisa and Alex call on Dan and Serious Eats food science guru Kenji Lopez-Alt, author of The Food Lab cookbook, to settle their longstanding snack dispute.

Listen in to the episode for the exciting resolution to this snack smackdown.
