Study shows the foods the nation deems food hell and food heaven and it’s no surprise that many of our food hells are the foods we were told to eat as kids. But just how ‘good’ are these foods for us and should we be trying a bit harder to turn food heaven into hell?
BBC Good Food has revealed the findings of one of the biggest surveys on food and health, shedding light on the foods we love and hate as well as our snacking habits, how often we skip meals and how many of us get our five a day.
Chicken, pasta and cheese are the nation’s favourite foods, whilst traditional food hates such as liver and Brussels sprouts continue to make it onto the food hell top ten.
Also on the list are foods such as mushrooms, tripe, celery and offal. But while to many of us these ingredients are what food nightmares are made of, most on the list of our food hates actually have huge health benefits.
Watch our video where nutritionist Kerry Torrens talks about the health benefits of some of the foods we may not include on our most wanted list, while BBC Good Food Editor, Christine Hayes, reveals more about how we eat as a nation.
