The Guardian is running special reports on the state of Britain’s food, and I’m beginning to feel a little smug.

As ready-meal consumption increases dramatically, I can safely say that the nearest we come in this house is a few jars of sauce. We’re each quite good cooks, and I particularly enjoy working with fresh ingredients, predominantly organic ones that are much less travelled than most supermarket food.

There’s a list of twenty things to do to change the food system and I have to admit, I do quite a few of them already. One day, I shall join Slow Food, for now I’m just going to think about the venison sausages and green veg on a bed of mashed potato that Daz has promised us for tonight.
