Food Unwrapped

Jimmy Doherty, Kate Quilton and Matt Tebbutt reveal more unusual, intriguing and surprising secrets about the food we eat. In Iceland, Jimmy looks into skyr, a mysterious yoghurt-like product that claims to be entirely fat-free but has a surprisingly creamy texture. So what exactly is it? Jimmy grapples on the beach with a team of Icelandic wrestlers who swear by the stuff, before a trip to the factory reveals that it may not be a yoghurt at all... Is it true that we can now eat oysters all year round, or should they be avoided in the summer months? At a Jersey oyster farm, Kate learns that most oysters in the UK are sterile, which has an unexpected impact on when they can be eaten. But if oysters can't reproduce, where do they come from?
