ITV Tonight: The Food We Eat
We\'re a nation obsessed with cookery shows, recipe books and celebrity chefs. Yet it seems we\'re spending less time than ever doing it for real.


1) Cant Cook or Wont Cook?
One in five families eat convenience foods at least three times a week and a government survey showed only one in six mothers cook from scratch every day. In the first of four food programmes over the next fortnight, the Tonight programme investigates why some of us can\'t cook or won\'t cook and what can be done to get Britain back in the kitchen. The UK has the largest consumption of ready meals in Europe. It\'s no surprise; they are cheap, convenient and easy. A few minutes in a microwave and dinner is served. But for some families the ready meal isn\'t always the first choice, it\'s sometimes the only choice.

2) Superfoods: Fact or Fiction?
With more research being done into the link between what we eat and how we feel, the health-food industry is booming, and so-called superfoods are leading the way. Many people admit to buying such products because they believe they make them feel significantly better - but is this true? Jonathan Maitland investigates whether superfood claims are fact or fiction

3) Fresh vs Frozen Food
Seventy years ago, when the coldest thing in your house was a pantry, most of the food we ate was harvested, sent straight to the shops and would have been on our plates before it started to go off. However, the advent of the home freezer and advances in various preservation techniques changed all of that and now we\'re used to eating what we want, when we want, regardless of the time of year when the food is actually grown. So how do they keep the food for so long? And does the quality stay the same?

4) Future Foods
By 2050 the world\'s population is estimated to reach over 9 billion, 30% larger than it currently is. If we continue to farm and eat the way we do today, we\'d potentially need an additional landmass the size of Europe to produce enough food to meet the growing demand. So what does the future of food look like and how will we grow enough food for us all to eat in the years to come? In Tonight\'s programme we visit some of the urban ventures that are maximising the use of public space to grow fruit and vegetables and teach the next generation how to farm. We speak to the owner of an indoor miniature farm housed inside a small shop about the new aquaponic technology he uses, and we go 100 feet below ground to see how one entrepreneur is growing high-value salad crops in old WWII bomb shelters, four storeys beneath the London Underground!
