Welcome to our food and cooking podcast! We're Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough, the authors of more than three dozen cookbooks. We'd love for you to check out one of our latest, THE LOOK & COOK AIR FRYER BIBLE. Or maybe our 900-recipe tome from a while back, THE ULTIMATE COOK BOOK.

In this episode, we're talking about why you should eat foods that make you happy. We've got a one-minute cooking tip about cooking times. Bruce interviews food entrepreneur, cookbook author, and longtime friend Maya Kaimal. And we tell you about what's making us happy in food this week.

Here are the segments of this episode of COOKING WITH BRUCE AND MARK:
