basketcase: Are you being ripped off at the Supermarket?

http://basketcasetheblog.blogspot.com/2015/03/are-you-being-ripped-off-at-supermarket.html

Food, Countryside and What's behind the label. Thursday, March 5, 2015. Are you being ripped off at the Supermarket? You walk out the door of the shop and think "Did that really cost that much? My own recent experiences of being overcharged in both mainstream supermarkets (a Tesco) and upscale food retailer (Donnybrook Fair) made me examine how many times we pay more for food than we think. Recently I went out onto the streets of Dublin to test consumers views on food value, to find out what we do when w...

basketcase: "Natural", "Artisan"? - nonsense? Get involved in the discussion on use of food marketing terms in Ireland

http://basketcasetheblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/natural-artisan-nonsense-get-involved.html

Food, Countryside and What's behind the label. Friday, March 21, 2014. Get involved in the discussion on use of food marketing terms in Ireland. This is something that constantly amazes me; I pick up a pack of Danish sausages in the supermarket (often distributed by big Irish brands) who neither state the country of origin or make ridiculous claims of it being a cutsey farm product rather than mass-produced factory food using the lowest acceptable standards, sold at the lowest possible prices. This Code ...

Food, Countryside and What's behind the label. Thursday, December 13, 2012. What exactly is a Christmas ham and what's the best way to cook it? Wet sloppy nightmare or artisan luxury bliss.

Of course lots of us want to be a part of that, but do we have a clue what we're doing? I cover new food stories every week either as part of my radio or print work. Most of the people I meet are already established along the often painful food business journey. They range from dairy farms making ice cream to small cafes in rural towns. With 46,000 food...

basketcase: I talk to BBC about Ireland and the end of milk quota

http://basketcasetheblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/i-talk-to-bbc-about-ireland-and-end-of.html

Food, Countryside and What's behind the label. Wednesday, April 8, 2015. I talk to BBC about Ireland and the end of milk quota. The end of milk quota has come and gone. Irish farmers are finally able to sell every litre of milk they produce instead of hiding it in barrels or stuffing it into calves which was what was going on aplenty until Tuesday night last week. The next few years are going to be interesting to say the least and price volatility is certainly going to be central to this quota-free era.

basketcase: Lovely Lamb

http://basketcasetheblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/lovely-lamb.html

Food, Countryside and What's behind the label. Sunday, March 16, 2014. In my food column this month for The Gloss. Magazine I write about Spring lamb and a time for learning. New born lambs are appearing in the fields around our house. This happens just as my friends and neighbours bear the weary eyes of long nights in sheds with bawling ewes, or bottle feeding the unwanted or third in a triplet set in the kitchen. Or fried off with chorizo and garlic for an easy soup with vegetable stock and cream.
