Channel 4 takes a culinary journey north this Monday with “Food Unwrapped’s Nordic Adventure.” Join Jimmy Doherty and Briony May Williams as they explore the unique food traditions of Norway, Sweden, and Finland. In Norway, the duo investigate the world of cod farming, examining its potential to satisfy the UK’s seafood cravings. They’ll also consider the environmental impact of these practices and how sustainable cod fishing is.
Next, they head to Sweden, where, in a surprising twist, a visit to a certain iconic flat-pack furniture store reveals the secrets behind those ubiquitous Swedish meatballs. Finally, in Finland, Jimmy and Briony sample local dishes to discover what makes the Finnish population rank among the happiest people in the world. Is it the reindeer, the berries, or something else entirely?
“Food Unwrapped” typically takes a lighthearted approach to its investigations, and this Nordic special is likely to follow suit. It’s a blend of food, travel, and cultural exploration, served with a side of good humor. Find out on Channel 4 this Monday at 7:00 PM GMT.
