97: Power of the Palate

How would you describe your gastronomic palate (tastebuds)? How did it develop — family recipes, trying new foods, TV commercials, exploring other cultures, travel? Has your palate shifted your opinion, appreciation, and/or outlook on the world, other cultures, friendships, business?

Kathiana LeJeune, author of the new book "The Power of the Palate," is a gastrodiplomatic thought leader and culinary enthusiast who is enthralled by the ways food can serve as a means of unity across cultural differences.

Listen in as Tracy chats with Kathiana about how powerful our palates are and how they can shift perspective, perception, and persuasions.
