The Bureau de Change of the Mind - ‘Tonally Different Chocolate’

Elis James and John Robins
Contains adult humour.

Available for over a year

A sweet treat from a listener sparks a debate about the right temperature for chocolate, and Elis reveals he likes his chocolate to be warm. Then it’s onto a surprisingly deep dive into condiments: the social history of tartare sauce, and the big question - why isn’t chippy sauce more valuable to the global economy than oil? You can also expect a major horseradish fact from Dave. Truly, no one’s doing it like these Condiment Content Kings.
