(ET) on ABC. The exciting television special will feature appearances by industry icons Daniel Boulud, Tom Colicchio, Traci des Jardins, Carla Hall, Emeril Lagasse, Jacques Pepin, Gail Simmons, Martha Stewart, Ming Tsai, and Marcus Samuelsson, who will help us tell the story of our history and evolution.
On our 20th installment of 30 Years in 30 Days, we’ve got author and television personality Ted Allen, who talks about how it’s never been a more exciting time to eat in the U.S.—and how Taste America, our cross-country culinary tour, reflects our nation's cultural evolvement.
