Wonderful Wheatgrass
Tweet Wheatgrass is a cleanser, an energiser and a highly nutritious concentrate of just about every nutrient we need. I wouldn't be without it and I certainly wouldn't want to trust living on a mainly raw food diet without it. Tastes great? Nah, not to me. I often shudder as I knock it back. In…

Swine Flu
Tweet A departure from photos of plants, people and food to look at pigs. These very friendly snuffling piggy-wiggies were saying hello while taking a break from turning over a patch of land on an organic farm near Edinburgh, land farmed by the same family for generations.

Why eat sprouts?
Tweet These snow pea sprouts are incredibly good food. I was brought up understanding that protein came from meat, fish, milk, eggs, nuts, seeds, beans and lentils, which is true. I was also taught that green veggies are good sources of vitamins and minerals, which is also true. But what I wasn't…

Atlanta Airport Hotel Hinterland.
Tweet …on Tuesday I was recovering from a day of plane delays which had me having to stay over in a big, smooth, impersonal hotel courtesy of the airline. Breakfast was a plastic pot of cinnamon and apple instant oatmeal and a banana, sort of OK, and watching the news: Americans may soon be able…

Judy’s Story
Tweet I’ll start with my name. Judy – it’s because of a cake. My parents had decided on Susan, an equally trendy name for babies at the time and my four year old sister went and told her friends her new sister was called Judy. Someone’s mum whipped up an iced cake saying ‘Welcome to…

Journey food
Tweet When I was a child journey food was sandwiches, boiled sweets, apples, lumps of cheese and polos. I'll be taking a box of salad including sprouted lentils and snow pea and sunflower greens to eat on the plane. For snacks I've made corn chips ('good as doritos' one friend says) but am too busy…
