In the guise of Mr Food Man, a colorful lobster-ice cream hybrid in a sandwich tie, writer and director Graydon Sheppard tells the surprising, sad and occasionally tragic stories behind the foods we love for a new series, Get Stuffed.
Best known for his does-what-it-says-on-the-tin web series, Shit Girls Say, viewed over 30 million times, the Los Angeles-based Sheppard's off-the-wall humor won him a Best Actress Award at the 2012 Webbys (alongside actual woman, Juliette Lewis). Here, he recounts the “depressing” history of the lobster—from lowly grub to bouji cuisine.
