This week, we look into the future with Bettina Makalintal, Senior Reporter at Eater and home cook behind the Instagram account @crispyegg420, where she celebrates her no-recipes, just-vibes ethos. Bettina, who grew up in the Philippines and suburban Philadelphia, has made the intersection of food and popular culture her specialty with stories on everything from American Girl Pizza Hut collab to the return of the fruitcake. She talks with host Abena Anim-Somuah about her early days scooping ice cream and studying neuroscience, her advice for breaking into food media, the positive and negative impact of social media on global foods, and whether we’ve hit peak mushroom. Of course, don’t miss Bettina’s voicemail to her future self and her Future Flash Five predictions.
