Abstract

I have four problems with food. First, I am middle aged and worry about food in relation to my heart, my bowels, spots and virility. Secondly, my wife is a very good cook. Thirdly, I have about one hundred and fifty bakery students in my department and there is a ready supply of goodies available and they get hurt if I don't sample them. Fourthly, I am a food microbiologist by training and very wary of eating out and if left to my own devices would try and live on a diet of well cooked steak and malt whisky. I realise that point four partially cancels out the other three but it hardly represents a balanced diet.
