Episode #94: American Groove - Banana Ketchup

Ketchup is a simple staple when it comes to condiments. You know what it looks like and where to find it. Now, if you're smoking dope as we do, you start looking for more creative things. One item that is a weird but practical variation of the banana ketchup from the Philippines. It's called Jufran banana sauce. How much you can learn from a simple story like this is wild. Yet again, the episode is just like many conversations we have here. We wanted to understand its history, learn something fun, and share it with our listeners.
