Ep. 13: There's thindi in the air ft. Vasanthi Hariprakash

Ep. 14: White supremacy on my plate ft. Dr KC Raghu

In this week's episode of The Brekking Point, food and nutrition expert Dr. KC Raghu sheds light on food racism in India today. He talks about how the Indian diet is being threatened by the "cereal killer" and "fast carb" culture, and how the constant presence of polished rice and sugar on our plates reveal a "white supremacy" bias. Could a gradual shift to traditional grains and millets, more mindful, balanced eating and an exploration of our culinary diversity stop our breakfast menus from becoming more and more homogenised? Happy listening!

He talks about how these guided food meet-ups have made BBW a community of practice and also reveals his favorite breakfast joint in the city, whose crispy, thick and ghee-ful doses he swears by (and it's not what you think!).

In this week's episode of The Brekking Point, we are joined by Ajit Bhaskar, a research scientist who calls the kitchen his second lab. He loves to cook and bake and is keen about where his ingredients come from. He talks about including local produce in his culinary experiments, being blown away by the breakfast scene in Bengaluru and the science, or the scientist's view, of cooking. Happy listening!
