FOOD SCIENCE: WINE

Its invention was probably an accident. Someone left a bunch of grapes in the bottom of a pouch, tasted it a few weeks later and BAM, they were hit with a buzz. Since then, wine making has become a sophisticated scientific process, from the grafting of two different types of vines to make growing possible anywhere in the world, to the technology used to create a red or a white. Every step is precisely thought out. Pheromone strips are used to control bug populations. And it may come as a surprise that this intoxicating mix of grapes and yeast is actually good for you!

ETIQUETTE, MANNERS, AND RITUALS WITH FOOD

You probably don't realise it, but when you share a meal with your friends, you are involved in a ritual. Sitting around a table somehow brings us closer together, creates a sense of community. We are not only sharing food but also feelings - friendship, love, pride and a sense of belonging. This program looks at etiquette and manners from the formal occasion of a Japanese Tea Ceremony, to a Samoan welcome ceremony, to a Christmas street party. As well, six high school students create their own special occasion.
