what's really in our food?

Anyone else watching this. Missed the start. But it seems interesting so far. Nearly none of the "premium" products that say farm willo or loch xyz. Are just trade names and don't actual exist.

what channel is it on?

Piggymon · 14-07-2009, 21:16

BBC1... we're watching it as well.

Bugger, forgot about it. iPlayer to the rescue I think.

Glaucus · 14-07-2009, 21:24

I don't see there point about birdseyes great British menu. Menu means food/recipe not ingredients.

iPlayer for me too then, though I already know a fair bit of what I eat I probably shouldn't (making gradual improvements though).

this seems to be a mix of dumb public and shocking practices.

Same here tomorrow

the most shocking one is meat which is filled with water can actually contain other meat as a stabiliser. I assume they just used chemicals.

So chicken breasts with pork and beef protein in it. God that is so wrong. That should be on the box.

Yes, heard about that one before.

sums up my views on that.
