Classic Michigan Food and Drink: The Stories Behind The Brands is full of amazing stories and secrets about the Michigan food and drink brands we know and love. Sure, Michigan invented ready-to-eat cereal (Kelloggs) and baby food (Gerber) --but there are fun facts most Michiganders don't know, such as Better Made uses Michigan potatoes and we are the pickle-growing capital of the US. We dish on pop, cookies, jam, etc--and of course, fudge and pasties. If you’re a fan of Sanders, Faygo, Vernors and Kowalski—or have fond memories of Awrey’s and Twin Pines—you’ll eat up this show!
