Exploring the foods that Americans love while also uncovering sordid secrets and criminal pasts that chefs tried to hide.

In an unexpected coupling, US series Devoured combines true crime with the culinary world. When a successful pizza restaurant's secret family recipe is stolen, the mafia dishes up their own version of justice. We meet 'The Codfather' whose fishy business practices were his downfall. A Texan ice cream brand refused to pull their product off the shelves even when they knew it was contaminated, resulting in the death of four people, and thieves somehow made off with hundreds of beehives in California. The remarkable stories in this series remind us how often fact is stranger than fiction.
