And in Season 2 of "Taste the Nation," she ex- plores more immigrant communities and their cuisines and addresses a few serious subjects along the way. Premiering Friday, May 5, on Hulu, the sophomore round brings the award-winning cookbook author and presenter to more locales across the U.S. to visit the diverse communities that have shaped what Ameri- can food is today. So in the 10 episodes, she goes to Wash- ington D.C., where she joins the Afghan community as they welcome new arrivals in the wake of the war in their homeland; Appalachia, where she discovers new recipes and ingredients and tries her hand at play- ing the banjo; and Lowell, Mass., home to an enterprising Cambodian community that has revitalized a once-decaying town. In Friday's opener, Lakshmi visits Puer- to Rico, where there is disagreement over whether the beloved local dish pasteles should be eaten with or without ketchup. In the process, she learns that mid-20th century industrialization by American com- panies resulted in the decline of agriculture on the island, thus making it difficult to find locally grown produce. So much of what is sold in markets in Puerto Rico today comes from places like Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic and the U.S. mainland. "It's so sad," Lakshmi says. "And the thing is Puerto Ricans should have sover- eignty over what happens to them and their land and they don't because they're really a colony of the United States. We don't call it a colony; we call it a territory but it's the same thing. "It's because of this ancient, 100-year-old shipping law called the Jones Act," she con- tinues. "And that law was made not to help Puerto Ricans or even American farmers; it was made to help American corporations. And we're in the predicament we're in now and we like to think of ourselves as so evolved but this is something that is still an issue. And I don't think a lot of people know it." Born in India but raised in New York, Lakshmi is an immigrant herself. So she hopes this show can familiarize viewers with cuisines and cultures they might otherwise consider alien. "At the end of the day, we are all in- terconnected on this planet," she says. "I don't care how much we want to isolate ourselves, we are interconnected. COVID taught us that. And so maybe if people can't travel themselves, maybe they can travel with their forks, maybe they can trav- el with this show. what'scooking tastytv BY GEORGE DICKIE Exploring immigrant cultures and cuisines on 'Taste the Nation With Padma Lakshmi' Padma Lakshmi 9 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 9:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 10 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 10:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives Saturday 5 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 5:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 6 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 6:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 7 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 7:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 8 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 8:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 9 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 9:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 10 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 10:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 8:30 p.m. WEIU Lidia's Kitchen 9 p.m. FOOD Chopped 10 p.m. FOOD Chopped 10:30 p.m. YTA Chasing Down Madison Brown Tuesday 5 p.m. FOOD Chopped WFYI Pati's Mexican Table 6 p.m. FOOD Chopped 7 p.m. FOOD Chopped 8 p.m. FOOD Chopped 9 p.m. FOOD Supermar- ket Stakeout 10 p.m. FOOD Chopped Wednesday 5 p.m. FOOD Guy's Gro- cery Games 6 p.m. FOOD Guy's Gro- cery Games 7 p.m. FOOD Guy's Gro- cery Games 8 p.m. FOOD Guy's Gro- cery Games 9 p.m. FOOD Guy's Gro- cery Games 10 p.m. FOOD Guy's Grocery Games Thursday 5 p.m. FOOD Beat Bob- by Flay WFYI Ellie's Real Good Food 5:30 p.m. FOOD Beat Bobby Flay 6 p.m. FOOD Ciao House 7 p.m. FOOD Beat Bob- by Flay 7:30 p.m. FOOD Beat Bobby Flay 8 p.m. BRAVO Top Chef FOOD Beat Bobby Flay WTHI2 WXIN Next Level Chef 8:30 p.m. FOOD Beat Bobby Flay 9 p.m. BRAVO Top Chef FOOD Beat Bobby Flay 9:30 p.m. FOOD Fast Foodies 10 p.m. FOOD Beat Bob- by Flay 10:30 p.m. FOOD Beat Bobby Flay Friday 5 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 5:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 6 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 6:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 7 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 7:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 8 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 8:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives Call Today!
