Time Machine: American Eats: History on a Bun

“From pizza to the hoagie (or grinder or hero) some of the most characteristically American foods have their origins abroad.

By going into some of the world?s most famous kitchens and talking with people like the inventor of the Big Mac, a San Francisco Chinatown food guide and the founder of Pizza Hut, the delectable story of AMERICAN EATS comes alive.” (History Channel)
