New to 3, Petra Bagust hosts What's Really In Our Food? The show investigates the food we eat, exploring the benefits and risks and debunking some of the popular myths or misunderstandings surrounding so many food products. We look at where our food comes from and how it is made, and along the way we demystify the science, test the ingredients and translate the labels. Tonight: 'Breakfast'. It's the most important meal of the day, but we might be doing it all wrong. That bowl of cereal we eat every morning
could have more salt that a bag of chips and more sugar than a can of coke.And why are we eating cereals anyway? We take our cameras inside Petra to see just how our stomach works, what our intestines do and whether eating cereal for breakfast helps them function better. http://www.tv3.co.nz/TVShows/Reality/InsideNZ/tabid/86/articleID/33600/cat/1

We look at where our food comes from and how it is made, and along the way we demystify the science, test the ingredients and translate the labels. Tonight: 'Sausages & Bacon'. New Zealand pork is produced without using growth hormones. But much of our bacon and ham is made from cheap pork imported from overseas where pigs are routinely injected with growth hormones? How can we tell the good pork from the bad? And why does modern bacon seem to broil rather than fry – just how much fluid are some producers
injecting into bacon to increase its weight? And how much fat is there in that sausage? http://www.tv3.co.nz/TVShows/Reality/InsideNZ/tabid/86/articleID/33600/cat/104/Default.aspx Children of Chernobyl
