Baker Dave sets out to prove that making mac and cheese from scratch is just as easy as making it out of the box on a new episode of his show airing Thursday. To do so, he invites Jonathan Latko, the Director of Computer Recycling Services at Temple University, who brings his mother’s recipe with him.
Latko, who was born, raised and still lives in Camden, is a big advocate for the food culture of Camden. He also explains to Baker Dave what “recycling computers” entails and how his family’s history as farmers who reused and handmade most things they owned and were environmentally responsible inspired his career choice. He describes how his office helps Temple recycles 90 tons of equipment a year in an effort that provides many benefits to the University, its faculty and students, and the world at large.
