Making Popcorn for 15,000+ Basketball Fans | On the Job | NYT Cooking

What does it take to make popcorn for over 15,000 basketball fans? In this episode of On the Job, we’re going to find out. Meet Miss Deb and Mahogany, coworkers and longtime friends. The two women are among the longest-tenured concession employees at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. They’ve each held a variety of positions working in the arena, but making popcorn has been their favorite. We’ll follow along on a day leading up to a WNBA game at the arena: The women come in early, before many other workers and fans arrive, to begin the process of making close to 60 bags a day. It’s enough to feed the entire arena, from the upper and lower bowl seats to the VIP suites. “On the Job With Priya Krishna” is a series about labor and the people who shape what we eat and how we eat, and whose jobs often go unseen. ------------------------------------------ Download the Cooking app for daily dinner picks, helpful tools, and even more videos: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nyt-coo...
