Farming & Food TV Shows We Love

Food Blog — By kent on November 25, 2009 at 10:24 pm

There are some amazing farming & food TV shows out there right now.

Lets start with Jimmys Food Factory. Jimmy Doherty investigates what really goes into our supermarket food by setting up his own food factory to recreate processed ‘food’. This week saw Jimmy having a stab at square sandwich ham. You know the stuff ,that rather whiffy pre-pack nastiness masquerading as a pork product. Truth is it is made from pork, well mechanically reclaimed pork anyway with lots and lots of added water, flavouring and some lovely colouring. mmmmmmm. NOT!

Next up is an amazing TV series by Alex Riley, Britain’s Really Disgusting Food. Alex uncovers the nightmares of the British food industry. It’s a real eye opener. Like Jimmy’s programme the series investigates the difference between what’s on the label and what you are really eating.

On to better fare. We love Valentine Warner and his programme What To Eat Now. If like us you like eating seasonally and using sustainable ingredients then this is the show for you. Valentine clearly cares and is passionate about what he does and what he eats.

Farm, Park & Wild is committed to helping customers eating the Valentine way. We have some real issues with processed food, but by eating seasonally and really thinking about what we are eating we can address a whole host of issues – general health, sustainability and climate change for starters.

Farm, Park & Wild’s unique seasonal dinner party menu, our meat boxes, game & seafood boxes will help you on your way.

Eat well.
