  • A rare podcast that all of my family loves

    It’s hard to find a podcast that both both my husband and I like, let alone out 9yo and 13yo. But Ingredipedia has found the sweet spot for all of us - funny, good banter, interesting food facts, and ideas for food and recipes we’d like to try. Keep up the fun times, Ben and Em, we think you’re ace!

  • Oh sooo soft!

    I love this podcast & never fail to listen.

    However the volume has slowly become fainter & fainter. I turn the volume WAY UP to hear it then blow my ears out when the next podcast plays.

    Please increase the sound levels 🥺
