From “white-knuckling” through a Northern Indiana blizzard to debating if lasagna is actually a cake, Episode 10 of We Feed Them is a wild ride through the highs and lows of the hospitality industry.

  • Winter Survival & The DoorDash Dilemma: Sean and Steve dive into how the brutal cold and extreme snowfall affect local restaurant business. They discuss the “nightmare” of relying on third-party apps like DoorDash, where profitability is slim and operators are often just “breaking even”.

  • Tales from the Delivery Front: One host shares a firsthand account of doing Uber Eats deliveries in 8-degree weather. Hear the “nightmare” story of a 60-minute delivery to a locked-down university campus that resulted in a measly $1 tip.

  • The Great Food Debates: We tackle burning questions from our viewers:

    • Is chili actually a soup? (Or is it a sauce?)

    • Is cereal soup?

    • The ultimate controversy: Is lasagna closer to a cake or a casserole?

  • Chef Secrets & Community: Do chefs really share recipes with their competitors? We discuss the “neighborly” side of the industry, from borrowing sugar to sharing old family pickle recipes.

  • The Chopping Block: Soup Edition: The main event! We run a 14-soup bracket to determine the ultimate comfort food. Watch favorites like Chicken Noodle, French Onion, and Lobster Bisque go head-to-head until a champion is crowned

  • Gumbo Masterclass: A deep dive into the art of the roux—why patience is the key to a perfect dark roux and why you should “smell the popcorn” to know it’s ready.
