Why in the Midwest do we call "thinly-pounded deep-fried breaded pork" a "pork tenderloin" instead of schnitzel, which it clearly is? Is it anti-German sentiment? Anxiety over mispronouncing so many consonants pushed together?
If someone walked up to me and said "My government name is Liz, but everyone calls me Big Snack and you should too." I would remember that for the rest of my life even though I'm terrible at remembering names...
This is fair. In college, one of my English profs asked the class if anyone had a nickname they’d prefer she use. An awkward, sweaty white dude raised his hand and said “I’d like to be called Shapes.”

An economics question: What would it take for you to call it "What's 'COOKing' with Liz 'Big Snack' Cook"...
A pop culture question: Have you seen Everything Everywhere All At Once? If not, I think you might like the Ratatouille bit...
A celebrated author question: Have you considered doing some kind of Haterade meet-up to support local or new restaurants? I hate going to stuff, but I would go to that.
