If Obama wanted to make radical changes to America's health long-term, all he has to do is treble the price of sugar and salt.

There is not one thing we can do to fix the problem, it has to be an ambush!
Jamie Oliver

I love roasting because you can give it love, get it in the oven and go and play with the kids or whatever you've got to do, and then hours later you've got a lovely dinner.
Jamie Oliver

I profoundly believe that the power of food has a primal place in our homes that binds us to the best bits of life.
