Leite's Culinaria and Eat Feed Join Forces to Create "Now Serving" -- A New Food Podcast
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) June 20, 2025 -- On Friday of last week, Eat Feed (http://www.eatfeed.com) and Leite's Culinaria (http://www.leitesculinaria.com), two of the Internet's most popular and critically acclaimed food-related Web sites, launched Now Serving, a new food podcast that combines the best of both sites -- Eat Feed's in-depth interviews and Leite's Culinaria's award-winning food writing.
"It was a natural fit," says David Leite, cohost of Now Serving and publisher/editor-in-chief of Leite's Culinaria. "When you look at what we offer our readers and what Eat Feed offers its listeners, we knew that together we had the goods to create a different kind of podcast format."
"I think the show feeds two current passions," says Anne Bramley, Now Serving's other host, and co-founder and executive producer of the Eat Feed Podcast Network. "The desire to more intimately know about the people shaping the contemporary food world and the increasing demand to experience food in a more entertaining and literary format rather than the strictly hands-on, recipe-driven model often found on TV."
Together Bramley and Leite have created a format for the podcast that includes discussions between the hosts about some of the interesting food news of the day; probing interviews that introduce the people shaping what, why, and how we eat; and audio essays, commentaries, and op-eds that explore the sheer pleasure of food and eating in all its forms.
The inaugural show, which is sponsored by Le Creuset, includes an interview with the venerated chef, cookbook author, and TV personality Jacques Pépin and an essay on the perils and passions of New England grillers by food writer and restaurant reviewer Elissa Altman. Future episodes include interviews with, among others, Julee Rosso and Sheila Lukins, authors of The Silver Palate Cookbook, now celebrating its 25th anniversary, as well as an essay about supertasters and an ode to the carnality of meat, both sexual and comestible.
"I'm very optimistic about the podcast," adds Bramley. "Given the listener stats in the first few days, we fully expect Now Serving to surpass even our most popular series."

The original Eat Feed podcast launched in January 2005 and has since expanded into a network that includes three of iTunes' Top 100 food podcasts. Eat Feed's unique approach to food has been featured in press as varied as Cooking Light, Saveur, and the BBC. Leite's Culinaria is the only Web site ever to be honored with a James Beard Award, one in 2006 and another in 2007. It has also won a 2006 Food Blog Award as well as the 2005 World Food Media Award for Best Food and/or Drink Web Site. The site's writers have been featured in Best Food Writing in 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007.
