Jimmy Doherty, Kate Quilton and Matt Tebbutt travel the globe in their quest to uncover more unusual, intriguing and surprising secrets behind the food we eat.
Jimmy heads to Ecuador, the largest banana exporter in the world, to investigate remarkable claims that the humble banana could one day be used in the fight against a number of viruses including HIV and influenza.
Kate's in search of the food industry's holy grail – a meat substitute that actually tastes of meat. Her journey takes her to Holland, where scientists have developed a product they call 'Plant Meat.' But does it taste like the real thing? Can these vegetarian steaks, chicken pieces and sausage rolls fool the taste buds of three meat-loving barbecue chefs?
And Matt's looking into the mystery of green crisps. What are those green bits you find on some crisps, and are they safe to eat? To find out, he visits one of Britain's largest crisp manufacturers, where he sees for himself the high-tech machinery employed to weed out the green ones before they hit our crisp packets.
