More from the comments

I recently caught an apple-centric episode of 'Gastropod' and definitely recommend it.

If you like learning about the history (and science) of the world's foods, check out the podcast <i>Gastropod</i>.

Also worth checking out is Twilley's podcast Gastropod (https://gastropod.com), which "looks at food through the lens of science and history".
