My mouth is watering already. This sounds like a delicious recipe. Hadn’t thought of adding apples. I’m definitely going to try that.

We couldn’t wait until Thanksgiving. I highly reccommend this recipe for a random Wednesday night! Wow!

This is a nice presentation, however, I just have one suggestion for your consideration. The animated lower thirds titling is very distracting throughout the presentation, because it appears and fades away continuously while the talent is making key points. My suggestion is that the lower thirds title area be on-screen during the entire presentation while the content (itself) updates as the talent goes along – perhaps you should utilize a nice dissolve transition.
Otherwise, I truly enjoy the concepts and overall vision of Whole Foods Market and my comment is posted with good intentions. Keep up the excellent work!

Simply Stated, thank you so much for your feedback on the Secret Ingredient production. We have tried inserting the ingredients into the podcast a few different ways over the last couple of years. It has always been a little bit of a distraction but I think your suggestion is a great one. I will talk to our production team and we will test that direction and see how it works. Again thank you for your input, we really look at our customers as our partners and appreciate all the feedback we can get.

This recipe sounds fabulous. I didn’t get to cook a turkey this holiday, so will try this one soon. I was drawn to the ingedients: honey, brine and rosemary..can’t wait to try it.
