  • Summary

  • We're celebrating the centennial of the Caesar salad, and to get the real story, we're going straight to the source: Tijuana, Mexico! Yes, you read that correctly, the Caesar salad was invented in 1924 in Mexico, not Italy. John joins the owner of Caesar's Restaurant - the original home of the Caesar salad - Tana Plascencia in person to eat some original Caesar salad and chat about how, why, where, and by who the Caesar salad was invented. Tana isn't gatekeeping. Visit the restaurant in person and tell him that you heard this episode; he will give you the original recipe to take home! Tana and John also talk about the origins of the famous "Mexican pizza" in Baja and Clamato cocktails (and why John might be ditching Bloody Marys forever!). Stick around after the interview because John walks us through the Natural Products Expo in California, sharing all sorts of tips and interesting facts around foods such as: flax, sunflowers, vegan cheese, green tea and more! -- This season of Foods That Matter is presented by Watkins. Executive Producers: AJ Moseley and Stuart Halperin Editing: AJ Moseley Marketing: Catrin Skaperdas Music: Jenny G -- Caesar's (Tijuana, MX): https://www.grupoplascencia.com/index.php?secc=2&lang=en Tijuana Caesar Salad Centennial Party: https://tijuanacaesars.com/en/centenary/ Natural Products Expo West: https://www.expowest.com/en/home.html
