Cut Tourism VAT’s aims are pretty simple, though a more obvious and perhaps succinct statement would be that their stated intentions are pretty self-explanatory. And support for their movement is beginning to grow with political circles as the Liberal Democrats have become the first major party to back them.

During their recent party conference in the south-coast town of Bournemouth, the Lib Dems adopted Cut Tourism VAT’s proposed policy that VAT on domestic tourism should fall to 15%, down from the current 20% level it is at now.

Is cheese a super food?

The scientists over at Aarhus University in Denmark are certainly on our Christmas card list this year after a study that they conducted appears to suggest that cheese could well be the key to a reduction in obesity as well as kick-starting your metabolism.

Wallace was certainly onto something….

Space Whisky Revealed

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to create something unique?

A Scottish distillery based on the small island of Islay has, and we must say that it’s something rather wonderful.

Ardberg Distillery sent a vial of unmatured malt to the International Space Station back in October 2011 under the premises of seeing how a sustained period of time in zero gravity would affect terpenes and the whisky’s taste and aroma.

There were plenty of moments when I thought about diving behind the sofa last night during The Great British Bake Off, but nothing terrified us more than when Alvin and Ugne had some rather messy moments when making their ice cream.

Jam inside ice cream and toxic coloured desserts? It’ll never catch on.

I screamed. Did you scream?

The three origins of La Tomatina

Nobody quite knows exactly when it began, or what motivated the first tomato to be thrown across the streets of Bunol. Not that anybody complains now mind, given that the annual tomato festival, headlined by a massive food fight, draws in the crowds and revenue to the generally sleepy Spanish town. Importantly though, it’s a lot of fun.

Today (26th August), La Tomatina takes place. This year’s event is (believed to be) the 70th anniversary of the event and thousands of people are expected to gather together in the narrow streets of Bunol, throw tomatoes around, generally get messy and then jump in one of the rivers that intersects the town to try and clean up a little.

Like we said, it’s a lot of fun.

Why does the waffle get two ‘food days’?

Author Damien Wilde
Posted On 24th August 2015

Waffles

With 365 days in the year it’s quite easy to lose track of time and see days blend into weeks and weeks into months. It’s also easy to get dates mixed up, something which can be a little detrimental to our personal and/or professional lives.

However you can be excused for being a little confused about Waffle Day because it actually takes place twice a year.

So why does the waffle get to have two days?

“Cook Off” to determine UK Bocuse d’Or representative

Posted On 21st August 2015

UK Bocuse d'Or Cook OffAs a sports fan there is nothing worse than watching a penalty shootout. It’s a moment that undoubtedly sends millions of grown adults jumping behind the sofa just as kids would hide behind cushions when watching horror movies. Fear; it has that effect upon people.

But there’s also something immensely enthralling about these gladiatorial events. Take tennis, for example, where players square off in a personal battles; or even reality shows where singers, bakers and performers take each other or in a series of head-to-head battles from week-to-week: It’s a familiar format, one that brings out the best in people but can also force people into deep, dark crevasses from which they may never escape from.
