Cauliflower rice biryani anyone?

And the photo that broke the internet View this email in your browser Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon Eat Differently Now When Kumail Nanjiani was cast as a Marvel superhero, he decided to transform his body. Gone was the guy who played a schlubby coder on Silicon Valley — Kumail got ripped. To many of his fans, and to anyone who heard him wax poetic about his favorite foods on The Sporkful four years ago, this change was shocking. But has Kumail himself changed? This week he returns, now with his wife, creative partner, and podcast co-host Emily V. Gordon. We discuss the surprising ways their relationship to food has evolved since Kumail got ripped — and since the pandemic hit. Plus, they break down their quarantine take-out game, defend their decision to eat cauliflower rice biryani, and unpack some of their body image issues.  Listen to this week's Sporkful through our website, Stitcher, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify.
