Food Rebels

Eating Snails and Swimming the Channel

In this episode of Food Rebels, Georgie teaches us how to eat the snails from your garden, why you should stick eyes on cauliflowers this Halloween. And we find out why AJ hates running, loves cooking sausages over fires on the beach and gets stuck into what you need to eat when you’re planning to swim the channel. Just in case you are thinking about it.

Getting into a Jam

Welcome back to Food Rebels! After a brief summer break, we're recharged and ready to bring you the best Food Founder stories.

Known for crafting jams packed with more fruit and less sugar, Rachel shares her journey from primary school teacher to food entrepreneur, driven by a desire to create healthier, ethically-sourced products.

Gut Loving Goodness

This week the rebels throw open the doors to the world of gut health and next-level energy!
First up, we meet Monique Farquharson, founder of The Matcha Yaad. Monique hated matcha at first, but after a flavor explosion of Jamaican spices, she created a unique line of productivity drinks. Unlike coffee's jittery highs and crashes, The Matcha Yaad boasts a blend of energising matcha, delicious Jamaican spices, and powerful antioxidants for sustained focus and a happy gut.
Also on the show we have Ben Payne, co-founder of Bottlebrush Ferments. Ben's journey began in the gym, where he discovered the powerful link between gut health and overall well-being. Ditching the usual suspects like eggs and kale, Ben embraced buckwheat, seabream, and other gut-friendly options. This shift led him to raw, unpasteurized ferments teeming with live bacteria. Georgie learns the importance of a pristine microbiome and why double-dipping is a no-go with these flavor-packed ferments.
