Ugly Delicious
This series of food documentaries on Netflix is fascinating because it explores the intersection between food and culture. In each episode, chef David Chang and various guests focus on one particular staple of comfort foods (pizza, tacos, fried rice (and Chinese in general), etc.) At the core of the series is the tension between tradition and innovation while maintaining authenticity. Apart from a few irritating bits where Chang's ego is overboard, it's a really good series. If you'll pardon the pun, this is truly food for thought.
