Lauren Birmingham and the One Kilometer Rule
Show Notes:
Episode Notes:
Lauren Birmingham, founder of cooking-vacations.com, has created tours of Italy from her heart. And, has made me very hungry to go visiting.
During this episode, our conversation lead us to subjects like the Italian version of farm-to-table: your ingredients come from sources less than one kilometer from where your food is made. And, it is a cardinal sin to go further.
We also discuss how she creates her tours, her upcoming book of fascinating people and delicious recipes that will be out at the end of year, and her love of the curious, interesting history of Italian food.
She tells a compelling story of the landscape, and rich historic traditions, of Italian cooking.

About Cherry Bomb! The Podcast
Join host Matt McKee as he talks with artists, chefs, entrepreneurs and innovators on the subjects of Food, Art and Sustainability.
The Inspiration for Cherry Bomb! The Podcast
After creating Cherry Bomb! and the rest of the Sweet Blasts series of photos, Matt found that every time he showed the works, deep conversations were sparked between him and his viewers as well as between the viewers themselves.
The podcast was the natural next step to continuing the conversation and sharing it with a wider audience.
