Episode 13 - Food, Family and Fagioli

John Catucci grew up in an Italian household where food was an important part of family life. As a first-generation Italian-Canadian, John's love of food started in the kitchen, with his father, who taught him the ins and outs of a good home-cooked, Italian meal.

It's no surprise that John went on to become a food connoisseur of sorts, through his love of dining out and via stint as the host of The Food Network's "You Gotta Eat Here."

In this episode of the Parenting Then and Now Podcast, John sits down with Sam and tells her all about his life growing up and learning about food and cooking, his views on Kraft dinner and Nutella and how he feels about dining out with, or without kids.
