Nick Offerman discusses cooking up Mark Twain's favorite foods

NPR has the perfect lunchtime listening material for you.

Actor Nick Offerman, famous for playing Ron Swanson on Parks And Recreation, is among those helping narrate the Audible series Twain's Feast: Searching for America's Lost Foods in the Footsteps of Samuel Clemens.

He talked with Morning Edition’s David Greene about that experience and the research he did for it; listen below only if you have some food at hand for yourself.

(We’d hate to make a hungry person hear people discuss a feast!)
