I know what you mean Sue. It’s not really a show for artisans but for producers who already have their lines in supermarkets. More for mass market foodies. First time we went 5 years ago it was a massive crush and way too unpleasant. Going on the Friday made a big difference but I wasn’t overly inspired by the exhibits – except Gu, cheesemaking kits and the retro Kenwood stand!

I really wanted to love the food show, but the text I sent my sister said it all: “I’d rather be at Moore Wilson.” It was very crowded on Saturday afternoon, but it seemed like all the vendors were brands that had already made it into the supermarkets, so there wasn’t much new. It did make me all the more grateful for our farmers’ markets, and the delis and Indian groceries in Petone and Newtown.
