Summary
Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.
This week I’m hoovering with food waste avoidance expert and representative of the amazing Feedback Organisation, Christina O’Sullivan. We gobble up lunch over the zooms in our respective homes, and fittingly we’ve both made lunches out of stuff that needed eating up. And I have to say we both did a pretty fit bloody job of it actually thanks.
