The Squiz and Food Investigators


The Squiz- hosted by Anh Do - one of Australia’s favourite comedians and an avid sports fan - The Squiz is a new sports quiz show which combines sporting knowledge with great comedy and plenty of entertainment. Saturdays @ 8:30pm on SBS

Food Investigators
"Hospital doctor, actor and healthy eating enthusiast Dr Renee Lim is a woman with a mission. From domestic kitchens to high tech factories, from farmers markets to supermarkets, she’s out and about finding exactly what Australians are eating.

Assisted by food scientist-turned-stand-up comedian Joe Avati and a team of top dieticians, the Food Investigators will use cutting edge science to take us through food debates, health scares and uncover exactly how our food is made.

Confused by labels? Lite, natural? What they say isn’t always what they mean. We’ll have an insiders’ guide to deconstructing the information on the packet. Plus our investigators will be looking at common misconceptions: why processed is sometimes better than fresh. When frozen is sometimes the best option. Wednesdays @7:30pm on SBS
A bit about Renee from the site:
"Renee is a dynamic doctor who enjoys mixing medicine with her acting career and talent for dancing. Like many children of Chinese migrants, Renee was encouraged by her parents to take up Law or Medicine. She obeyed and wasn’t too keen at first but with time Renee has developed a deep commitment to her profession as a doctor on the front line. She cares about the role of nutrition and diet in preventing illness and sees the results of alcohol abuse and dietary-related illnesses in her work every day."
She obeyed? How lame is that.
