Celebrity cookbooks – are they a recipe for culinary success?

22
Antique books on a shelf

From Jamie Oliver to Gok Wan, famous faces sell cookbooks like hotcakes. Are you prone to ‘doing a Delia’, or are your celebrity cookbooks gathering dust on a shelf?

1
A chef in a domestic kitchen

A lot of new chef-style features have been creeping their way into our kitchen appliances. But are these ‘professional’ additions something you’re prepared to pay extra for?

Sustainable fish products on rise – is the fish fight over?

1
Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) fish label

The number of UK certified sustainable fish and seafood products has shot up by 41% in the past year. Great news; so why are we still so keen on fish like salmon and cod and why can it still be hard to find alternatives?

Product endorsement – do you trust celebrity salespeople?

15
Katie Price advertising Snickers bar by Mars

Do you like Snickers? Well, after this week I know that Katie Price and Rio Ferdinand do, because they’ve been paid by the company to tweet about it. It seems like a bit of fun, but can celebrity endorsement go too far?

Woman putting on mascara

Claims of targeting ‘limp, lifeless hair’, or gaining ‘up to 60% longer looking lashes’ aren’t unusual in beauty ads. But is the cosmetics industry playing fair or are we falling for clever marketing?
