Where do you think bacon comes from?

A third of 16-23 year olds don't know it comes from pigs.

A third don't know where milk comes from and...and...only two thirds knew that eggs came from chilckens.

Not so much a question as a 'sheesh' and a self administered slap to the forehead:

How can this be?

Don't kids watch Delia?

If Delia's dishes are anything to go by, she doesn't know either.

Wasn't there some survey fairly recently where it was discovered that a lot of children didn't know what a real potato was?

It's nonsense.
I have just asked my 6 year old where bacon,eggs and milk come from, it was no surprise to hear him answer all three correctly.

16 - 23 year-olds were asked those questions. The results show that over a third were taking the Fosters.

Nobody watches Delia.

You might use her cook books ... but you can't "watch" her.

You can watch Nigella, Jamie, Raymond, Rick, Marco, etc ...

But Delia is just ... SO ... DULL ... !

the thing with Nigella etc is that "watch" is all they do. They'd never learn from her about platypus eggs.
