Fascinating episode...
Have you or would you do an episode on Fish and Chips?

Did you ever find a better translation of the text than, "kittens?" 😱

Saw someone in the comments saying that it's most likely referring to willow flowers, as "kittens" or "catkins" is a common colloquial name for them

So, cut back on beer, wine, red meat, shellfish, and sugar OR lose a foot? You know, I never really liked walking that much anyway. Well, then again, how many liters of coffee would I need to drink per day to balance it out?

Loved this episode, Max (and love seeing you on Blue Sky)! Very relatable since my grandfather had gout...yet here I am with my wine, red meat, butter...oof🍷😅

I have gout. It is excruciating during an attack...

I used to get it off and on, and now am on lifelong allopurinol. I used to think I was just kind of a wuss about the pain until an acquaintance of mine who had experienced endometriosis said gout was worse!

This is a great video. I remember telling my friend, who was suffering from gout that he had a disease of kings, his reply was “lucky me” lol. Always look forward to these. Thank you!

Love it! Shared this video with all of my chef friends that have had gout over the years. Thanks for all of the top notch cooking content!
