Hello, ya little saltines! On episode 136 of HINKY, it's back to school time! That must mean the weather is gonna get cooler, right? Right?! Well, probably not. But it does mean that the Paris Olympics have come and gone and the food was quite a topic of discussion. We talk about a couple of new to us restaurants, and we try to find back to school songs to celebrate the influx of people back to town. We get another international snack box from SnackCrate, this time from a South American country, and Carrie tells us the history behind the breakfast of champions. What else do we get into?

Hello, ya little sour tangy pickles! On episode 134 of HINKY, we have a lot to say about Prime Day for some reason, and that leads into a philosophical conversation about local food-themed events. We also talk about some of the places we went this week and Carrie has some sus thoughts about wings from a regional wing spot. We finally make it through the snacks that Sara bought at the beginning of the summer, and Carrie tells us the history of Kellogg's truly innovative cereal (and no, it's not THAT story, perverts!).

Hello, ya little Fig Newtons! On episode 133 of HINKY, Carrie and Sara try to think of patriotic songs to start the show. Then there's a lengthy conversation about wings and that leads into what we ate this past week. We have another Snack Crate box to try from Czechia (or Czech Republic, or Czechoslovakia, but NOT Czechnia) and we get a little slap-happy during the process. Finally, Sara tells us the history of a cereal that the FDA deemed to be masquerading as medicine, and we talk about our drinks for the show. What else do we get into?

Hello ya little refreshers! On episode 132 of HINKY, it's hot. Like, really hot outside. And you all know how we feel about heat. Carrie and Sara discuss all the different heat-related songs and how Sublime songs are actually quite dark, even though they sound all upbeat and nice. Sara recaps the food she ate on a recent trip to Portland, Oregon (with an interesting price comparison) and Carrie goes to Graeter's for the first time in a long time. We try some new chips and a summery take on Twizzlers for Everybody Tries, and Carrie tells us the history of the DQ Grill and Chill for the HINKY History Lesson. What else do we get into?

Hello ya little mangoes! In episode 131 of HINKY, Sara gets caught in a storm and one of the flowers in Carrie's yard is decimated by a rogue gutter spout (RIP). We talk about some of the places we ate at this week and Sara gets so excited she chokes (unless that got cut out, so in that case, it never happened). We find out that an iconic ice cream flavor is going extinct, but we help to ease the pain by trying some truly crazy snacks in Everybody Tries. Finally, Sara tells us the history of street foods in NYC for the HINKY History Lesson and the very first street food is gonna blow your mind! What else do we get into?

Hello, ya little stroopwafels! On episode 130 of HINKY, we get into the nitty-gritty of the Red Lobster bankruptcy saga. We also talk about some local and non-local cuisines that we tried over the weekend, and Carrie finds out that people really DO frequent The Summit! Sara accidentally orders another Snack Crate box and struggles to pronounce Dutch words, and Carrie tells us about the history of the Reuben sandwich?

Hello, ya tiny little cans! On episode 129 of HINKY, we're melting from the sudden onset of heat. Sara hates heat and summer and the sun, and it may be starting to get to Carrie too. We talk about the newest restaurant that we've been to in a fast-growing area of town, and we wish there were more tapas places in this town. We try some very on-the-nose-tasting snacks in Everybody Tries, and Sara tells us the history of the Cuban sandwich for the HINKY History Lesson. What else do we get into?

Hello ya little poppers! On episode 128 of HINKY, Carrie fears that Sara's car is being stolen in broad daylight (spoiler: it wasn't). After that mystery is solved, we talk about something random, as usual, then we talk about the new restaurants we tried recently. Sara shares an article about some of the tastiest-looking foods from the Simpsons, and then we try some GBS-related snacks in Everybody Tries. Carrie tells us the history of America's fave snack for America's pastime, and we talk about another very important piece of history happening at the time of recording. What else do we get into?

Hello, ya little chocolate-glazed donuts! On episode 127 of HINKY, we survived the apocalypse - sorry, I meant to say the eclipse - and we find out about some other special food releases besides those pesky Sun Chips. We each had our own separate food adventures over the past couple of weeks that were both pretty fun, and we talk about places we might wanna visit in the future. We try some snacks in Everybody Tries that taste exactly as advertised, we get our hands on the viral Coffee Mate dirty soda mix, and Sara gives us the history of American Cheese for the HINKY History Lesson.
