I'm Amadal Yuckper, and this is See Something Say Something.

It smells like wet grass and fat.

What are you getting wet grass?

This episode, we're going to be tackling a very specific case of cultural appropriation.

Caramel? Is it caramel?

We're going to go deep on a food product that I've been following and tweeting and thinking about obsessively.

This is Brethren that made this.

I'm talking, of course, about clarified butter, also known as Kee.

I grew up eating Kee, and I was also told that if you don't eat Key, you probably die very, very young.

If you see something, you better, you better say something.

Nothing at all, nothing at all.

Guy is clarified butter, which means you take butter and you take out all of the milk solids, so it's just fat. Clarified butter is used in all sorts of food traditions, but for daisies, ghee has a really special place.

It's what you rub on your baratas, it's what you put on sag. It's what your grandmother makes by hand and feeds you so you grow healthy and strong.

I actually never grew up eating it. By the time I was born, my mother had already completely switched over to olive oil.

But ghee was in the household. It was in the air. it was the thing that our people used to eat before

we realized that we had heart problems and we probably shouldn't be eating pure milk fat.

But outside of the Dasey community, Key has been kind of having a moment.

People are obsessed with its purity, the ancient wisdom that comes with consuming it, its

multi-purpose uses that you can use it for beauty and skin care and eating and burning fat.

It's basically a cure-all that comes from the past for a lot of people.

I'm going to pour ghee in Nicky's eyes because I'm treating the physical ailment side of photodysphoria.

It's going to feel a little weird.
