Synopsis
Panel game about food. With a title like that, it wasn't likely to be anything else. The contest was between two teams of two, one team of cookery writers (Zena Skinner, Tony Bilson, Fanny Cradock and Margueritte Patten were among the recurring guests) and one of general celebs (such as Clement Freud, Katie Boyle, Judith Chalmers and Moira Lister). After hosting the first series, Jack de Manio returned as a panellist in the second.
