As we get to just two weeks before Gen Con, it’s made us really think about the fact that RPGs like D&D are best explored with food. And even though I don’t know what the eating rules are about making a full buffet to eat with your RPG buddies at Gen Con, I know that most home RPG games have almost as much focus on food as on quests and monsters.
That’s when we came across this amazing podcast that the food podcast, Proof, did not so long ago! We wanted to share it with you, our DGM readers! Enjoy!
