    Australian food is an eclectic blend of many different cultures. This program explores the origins of many popular Australian foods and what it is that makes them Australian. Beginning with the British colonisation and family favourites such as the traditional Sunday roast, we explore how the migration of the Chinese and Europeans after WW2 introduced Australia to many new culinary delights, and influenced the food we eat today. We introduce the emergence of 'fusion foods' and discuss the growing popularity of Australian bush foods and how the bush food industry is expanding into international markets.

    The ever-increasing pace of life for people of all ages means it is critical to plan for healthy eating accordingly.

    In this program, teenager Jesse takes us through a dramatised story of how, once again, his mother has to work back and puts him on a mission of preparing the dinner for that night, with the usual parting instruction: "¡K.a 'healthy' dinner, Jesse¡K." Jesse, by his own admission, is just not one hundred per cent sure about what real healthy food is but he's willing to find out. In following his story, the program covers areas including the function of food; understanding nutrients; today's fast-paced society; designing menus; and different menus.

    SERVING UP A HEALTHY EDUCATION: CANTEEN CASE STUDIES

    The school canteen is unique - it's the only provider of food based in an educational setting. Nutritionists argue that canteens must do more to educate young people about good nutrition by selling healthy food. Others say that too much is expected of canteens, and young people won't buy healthy alternatives anyway. This program explores some of the issues facing school canteens today, including: - health and nutrition - food selection in canteens - influences on food choices We present two case studies to illustrate how redesigning canteen food is not only possible, but financially viable. Nutritionists, school council advocates, teachers and students all contribute to this lively program that will challenge and inspire.

    READING FOOD LABELS

    Food labels are a highly useful and important source of information for consumers. They help us to compare foods when shopping and to choose the foods that best meet our taste, nutrition and health requirements. From 2003, regulations drawn up by Australia New Zealand Food Authority (ANZFA) governing food labels came into force. Improvements to current labels include:
  • information on nutritional content
  • the percentage of the key or characterising ingredient or component of the food
  • the presence of major allergens in foods
  • country of origin
  • date marking and storage requirements.

    This program covers it all and more in a clear, concise and interesting way.

    INVESTIGATING FOOD PRESERVATION

    Food preservation has come a long way since Coolgardi Safes and ice chests. Today, modified atmosphere packaging, cook-chill and UHT processes sit comfortably alongside more traditional methods such as canning, bottling and pickling. This program investigates leading food preservation methods such as dehydration, hot and cold thermal processes and the more controversial process of irradiation. Examples are drawn from pasta making, jam making, boutique cook-chill production, modified atmosphere packaging and irradiation processes.

    The program uses graphics and expertly-shot footage to illustrate the processes and has been produced with the aid of leading food technology teachers. It is a great resource for students and teachers.

In this entertaining and informative program, we look at five of these myths: sugar is bad for you, vegetable fats are better than animal fats, red meat is bad, you can cut your salt intake by throwing out the salt shaker, processed food is bad.

    FOOD FACTS AND MYTHS

    Eating food is something everyone does and most people have opinions about. And of course there are always different companies and interest groups trying to convince you of their own point of view.

    So it's easy to see how myths about food and nutrition gain popularity. However, if you really want to maintain a healthy diet, it pays to examine these myths closely.

    This program examines the following food myths in the light of facts about food and nutrition.
  • By eating plenty of bran, you can be assured of sufficient fibre
  • Vitamin supplements are necessary for good health
  • You can eat as much fat as you like, provided that you exercise enough to burn it off
  • Bread and potatoes cause you to put on weight
  • Chicken is better than red meat

    FUNCTIONAL FOODS: A CASE STUDY OF MODIFI ED EGGS

    Quite simply, functional foods are foods which have been altered to improve or provide specific health benefits for the consumer. This program tells the story of one such product, the NewStart egg, developed by Professor Farrell of the University of New England. As the story unfolds, the following issues are carefully examined; the so-called 'Cholesterol Conspiracy', benefits of Omega-3 fats, broad concerns about functional foods and marketing complications. This program is a fascinating story, not least because it explains `how do they alter what's inside those naturally-sealed egg packages?'

    How much carbohydrate do we need, and what form(s) does it take? Can we eat too much of it? What is carbohydrate loading, and why do athletes use it?

    GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM: FAT

    Fat is a large part of our diet; often we don't realise just how much of it we consume. Staple foodstuffs such as meat, butter and milk all have high fat contents. Additionally, many foods become high in fat when they are prepared in certain ways; low fat potatoes can become high fat chips, for example. This program looks at what fat is, how much of it we eat, what foods it is found in, what function it carries out in the body, what problems it causes, and how we can reduce our consumption of it. We also see the pressures put on us to eat more fat. Advertising tempts us with appealing pictures of healthy people eating fatty products and industry lobby groups are constantly campaigning for their product.

    GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM: SALT

    For some years now, salt has been viewed as a major cause of high blood pressure. But the reality is a little more complex. For people with a genetic pre-disposition, salt may be a killer; for others it may not be such a problem. But until a satisfactory test is developed, it's wise for all of us to greatly reduce the amount of salt we consume.

But there's also the problem of dental caries: despite all the improvements in tooth-paste and fluoridation over large areas of Australasia, sugar which is hidden in an amazing variety of foods, is still public enemy number 1.

We explain the role of vitamins in the body and what happens when we consume more than we need. We also explain the vested interests involved in the synthetic vitamin industry and how that can get in the way of us spending our money wisely.

    FOOD TESTING: WORKING WITH YEAST

    Food testing is a key part of most food technology courses. In this concise program, with the aid of teachers and students at one of Melbourne's leading secondary colleges, we look at yeast its biology, its history, and the necessary conditions for its growth.

    Varying contents are used in six test tubes to show why only one of them will inflate a balloon. We also demonstrate the effect of using dried and compressed yeast in the making of bread rolls in a real-life school laboratory environment. Students are also shown how to write up the result of the tests.

    Our teacher-consultant, Gail Major, has been declared Victoria's 1998 Teacher of the Year, so we're very proud to have Gail's involvement in this quality production.

    GUESS WHO'S COMING TO BREAKFAST?

    Whilst the debate over vitamin supplements appears certain to go on for a lot longer yet, we come down firmly on the side of `Consume a variety of foods and you won't need to think about supplements'. We explain the role of vitamins in the body and what happens when we consume more than we need. We also explain the vested interests involved in the synthetic vitamin industry and how that can get in the way of us spending our money wisely.
