In this episode of Eat My Globe, our host, Simon Majumdar, looks at the story of the humble onion. He will look at how it went from being used in the very first recipe found on clay tablets in Mesopotamia, to its spread throughout the world. He will also discuss how some wild onions, like ramps, are now part of the “foodie” world, to how onions became a rare item in Great Britain during World War II. He will also talk about many other varieties of onions we now have today. It is a fascinating story.

In this episode of Eat My Globe, our host, Simon Majumdar, talks to Stephen Fried about his book, “Appetite for America: How Visionary Businessman Fred Harvey Built a Railroad Hospitality Empire That Civilized the Wild West.” In this book, Stephen Fried talks about Fred Harvey, an Englishman who, in 1876, came to the US with literally nothing in his pocket. Harvey ended up building up America’s first brand of dining rooms, created Harvey Hotels, and popularized the Harvey Girls, a well-dressed and well-informed group of servers that ensured guests dined well and be on their trains in 30 minutes. Harvey was one of the most famous people in the US and yet, now, people seem to have forgotten him and his restaurants and hotels. Stephen Fried attempts to alter that with this terrific book.
