A few weeks ago, a friend of mine and I were kidding around, and he asked me if I had any evidence of the existence of a higher power in the universe.
“Absolutely,” I told him. “Nutmeg.”
He looked at me like I was crazy. I said, “Have you ever smelled freshly ground nutmeg? Because if you had, you wouldn’t look at me like that.”
In this episode we look into the amazing world of spices. Wars have been fought over them because there have been times when they were worth more than gold. Besides, they taste good!
