Foodie Roundup #1907 (to Sunday 17 February)

  • If you’re a calorie counter who loves a scone in the morning, look away now.
  • Ellie Donnelly in the Indo has a good read on Peploe’s proprietor, Barry Canny – talking up his background and that of his Stephen’s Green restaurant.
  • If you’re doing business up North, there’s not long to go to get entries in for the 15th Northern Ireland Food & Drink Awards.
  • Are fad diets putting osteoporosis on the menu? It could be, says a piece in the Examiner.
  • Alan Reed at Industry Week writes that there’s never been a better time to launch a food startup.
  • It’s long been argued on the Irish scene, but is the world finally copping on to seaweed – is it the perfect food?
  • Michael Safi at The Guardian has a weekend piece on how the vegan food trend made a star of the stinking jackfruit.
  • Here’s the skinny on ultra-processed foods being bad for you, writes Nicole Wetsman for Popular Science.
  • We might start seeing the Tayto name pop up more often as Largo Foods rebrands to Tayto Snacks.
  • Inaction on junk food marketing ‘deeply disappointing’ writes June Shannon for the Irish Heart Foundation.

On a closing note, the very best of luck to the teams at Ballymaloe House and Paradiso – both Cork – as they represent Ireland at the World Restaurant Awards in Paris on Monday evening.
