Ever wondered why the movies always show women eating ice cream from the tub when they’ve been dumped, when in reality when you’re heartbroken you can’t eat a thing? In the second episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Jessie Stephens, co-founder and host of the hilarious pop culture podcast Mamamia Out Loud and author of the non-fiction book Heartsick, about Food and Heartbreak. The discussion covers everything from what happens when we're dumped in our favourite restaurants and pubs to revenge diets and healing through food.About Jessie Stephens: Jessie is a Sydney-based writer and podcaster with a Masters degree in History and Gender Studies.
