Hellooo Culture Kids! Grab your imaginary passports and your sweet toothโ€”because today weโ€™re off to the fudge capital of the world โ€ฆ Mackinac Island, Michigan!


Join Kristen and Asher as they hop on the Culture Train to explore this enchanting car-free island, where horses clip-clop down lilac-lined streets and the smell of freshly made fudge fills the air. Youโ€™ll meet our friend Mr. Aaron from Joannโ€™s Fudge and discover how creamy, dreamy fudge is made right before your earsโ€”yes, even the marble table has a job to do!

๐ŸŽง In this episode, youโ€™ll:

  • Learn why cars arenโ€™t allowed on the island

  • Visit a fudge kitchen and hear the sizzling magic of hot fudge on marble

  • Find out how Mackinac Island became the fudge capital of the world

  • Taste-test (well, almost!) popular fudge flavors like Chocolate Cookie Crunch ๐Ÿ˜‹

  • Hear what life is like on an island with just 400 year-round neighbors

๐ŸŒธ Bonus fun: Find out what lilac festivals, snowmobiles, and community spirit have in commonโ€”and why they make Mackinac Island one of the most unique places in America.
