Food Factory

In the modern-day and age not much thought goes into where the things we eat come from. We’re used to simply popping into the shops when we’re short on bread or craving some chips. There is no more need to churn your own butter or bake your own bread because nowadays such things are easy to come by.

Despite the simplicity of getting our hands on edible goods, getting those goods to the shelves is actually a very complicated matter. Behind every can of beer and bar of chocolate, there is a factory responsible for its creation. Food Factory takes you on a journey behind-the-scenes from the raw ingredients to the delicious final product.

Mondays to Fridays at 4:30 PM (double bills) on National Geographic (ch 131, from July 1^st)
