Funeral Potatoes puts twist on classic Midwest dish

We lost our jobs on the same day, and we were trying to figure out how to make some money to cover rent for a couple months, and we both had food jobs,' Studnicka said. Neither Studnicka nor Thomas-Rice were strangers to the food industry. They'd run the gauntlet of jobs - six of which they worked with one another.
