FULL SHOW RECAP:  FULL SHOW RECAP: A massive new study links chocolate, cheese, and fermented foods to longer life — but ONLY if Big Food hasn't already loaded them with sugar. We bring back "Grocery Pet Peeves" and people are angry about the places where they shop. Elizabeth's feature story this week is a warning for seafood lovers! She counts down the top 10 condiments you can make at home and in our "15 Years of I Told You" segment, a conversation with Scott Stevens on weather modification. Our Taste Test this week focuses on fast food burgers! Hour two follows the road. Travel news covers what's happening on the airlines and cruise lines, and Elizabeth breaks down the top 10 little-known places to visit in Washington D.C. that most tourists walk right past. You'll hear what's HOT at the RV shows this year, and you'll hear how one grocery store chain is using the grocery cart handles to predict store theft. Destination Unknown takes us inside a miniature doll house. Fifteen Years. One mission. The TRUTH about food and travel.

FULL SHOW RECAP:  The mainstream press is finally running stories about chemicals in the food supply — which means the pressure from informed consumers has gotten loud enough that ignoring it stopped being an option. Elizabeth Covers that and the FDA's latest attempt to redefine "ultra processed" on industry-friendly terms. Server's Revenge puts a face on the people who know exactly what's in your food and still can't make rent. The Top 10 Fair Foods of 2026 remind us that America still knows how to fry something glorious and hand it to a stranger. The 15 Years segment returns to Terry Ingraham's collapsing bee colonies and the pesticide science that proved him right after it was too late to matter. A corned beef deep dive asks what saltpeter is really doing in your St. Patrick's Day pot. On the travel side, war and a polio alert are reshaping the map, the government shutdown is degrading every point of entry, ten historical artifacts hiding in plain sight prove the best destinations reward people who slow down, and Door County, Wisconsin closes the hour with a fire, a fish boil, and a sky full of stars.

We've told you about genetically modified sugar beets and encouraged folks to eat pure sugarcane instead. Now, we are concerned about new information we discovered about a process designed to increase the profitability of sugarcane crops. We want to share this information with you.
Thanks to a listener who sent us a tip, we verified some surprising information in an interview with a researcher at the USDA. Sugarcane in Louisiana, Florida and other parts of the world are sprayed with the herbicide glyphosate (the active ingredient in RoundUp) before harvest to speed up the ripening process and to increase its sweetness.
Also, read about new GMO bioengineered sugarcane  undisclosed FRAUD.
Some studies worldwide suggest there is no safe level of glyphosate. Glyphosate was not developed to be ingested by humans.
U.S. Sugar (the same entity developing genetically modified oranges through Southern Gardens Citrus) did not respond to our attempts to contact them to comment on this story.
From the Food Travel USA Interview Archives: Elizabeth Dougherty spoke with with Caleb Dalley from the USDA Sugarcane Research Unit.

About the Show
Using the chassis of a food and travel show, Elizabeth Dougherty has carved out her own lane in Talk Radio, covering the contamination of the food supply and the travel restrictions placed upon us by an overreaching government. The show also covers data protection, self-sufficiency, and homesteading-related topics to help protect us from this evil, corrupt system. With Elizabeth as the host, the show has a very different sound from the typical male-oriented talk radio. In combination with terrestrial stations that carry the show, we reach people who don't normally listen to politically-driven talk radio. In addition to the LIVE FEED of the show on Saturday afternoons from 5pm–7pm (Eastern) / 2pm–4pm (Pacific), we produce and distribute a dozen podcast segments each week.

Elizabeth closes the show with a journey to Great Basin National Park in Utah, one of the least visited but most stunning parks in the country. She paints a vivid picture of its rugged mountains, ancient bristlecone pines, and dazzling night skies. Unlike the crowded icons of the national park system, Great Basin offers solitude, mystery, and raw beauty. Elizabeth shares the wonder of exploring caves, hiking alpine trails, and gazing at stars in one of the darkest skies in America. It's a reminder that hidden gems still exist, waiting to be discovered.
