    The claim that modern fruit is now so high in sugar it is essentially candy has raised its head again. This is a claims easily disproved by anyone that has ever been blackberry picking. Or frankly, ever eaten candy.

    A cynical person might say it’s because of what avocados *represent*. Vegans, youth, ‘woke’ness. Who knows? But the planet doesn’t care about judgey social labels. Just facts. But that’s none of my business...

    Almost everyday I see tweets on how EVIL avocados are because they: A) Use loads of water B) Are flown in However avos use less water than mangoes. They are also arguably more likely to come by sea (1/75th the emissions of planes) than mangoes. Where’s the mango hate?

    Happy Chinese New Year, Everyone! Am off to start it right with some Tiger Sugar tea here in Malaysia. Such a shame you can’t get that in the UK!

    In Singapore, it really is getting almost impossible to tell the difference between CGI effects and reality, even when you are standing in front of it. This is the new airport building...

    Food writer processes food to make a meat alternative that mimics its texture and taste WITHOUT having to rely on that dastardly ‘fake meat stuff’ (i.e. A meat alternative made by processing food to mimic its texture and taste.)

    TWITTER: Everything is black! Science proves it! EXPERTS: That’s not really the case, the evidence actually shows... TWITTER: So you are saying everything is white! That’s laughable! EXPERTS: No, no it’s a bit more complex... ALSO TWITTER: Ah! So everything is black!

    As a botanist, it's funny how the British press report plants and toxicity. Flowers worn as clothing allegedly 'DEADLY TOXIC!!!' if chosen by Megan. Yet in the *same* paper.... Recipe for cake covered in toxic Physalis bracts totally legit, if chosen by them.
