About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of having food-generating superpowers in a high school setting.

Is the ability to fire food out of your hands a good superpower? You're right, it's too powerful. Okay then how about if creating the food makes you physically exhausted. And if you tell anyone you can do it, the food tastes bad. And you always smell terrible, and sometimes you'll still randomly spurt various liquids all over the place? Now you're talking! Ezra (High School Musical's Lucas Grabeel) is an industrious student with one eye on an Ivy League future, but there's one thing missing from his academic career - class presidency! But how will the sudden onset of supernatural food-generation powers affect his leadership bid? Listen and find out! Vote for Mom Can't Cook! in the British Podcast Awards!
