Food seems to be everywhere during the holiday season. 

Which foods do you gravitate to?  And more importantly, why?  That's the question British food writer Bee Wilson took up in a book examining how our food habits develop, from mom's breast forward. 

The book is First Bite: How We Learn to Eat.  Bee Wilson visited in 2016, and we listen again here.
