Episode 4: Food Unwrapped's Sweet Treat

Summary

Who put the hole in doughnuts, and how much honey is there in a honeycomb? Plus: the truth about ready-to-eat cookie dough, as Food Unwrapped investigates some sweet food mysteries.

Review

Michael Hogan

Most of us have a sweet tooth, proven by the fact that we Brits spend a waistband-straining £13.6bn per year on sugar, confectionery and ice-cream. As the consumer series approaches its tenth anniversary, this episode roots around in the treat cupboard for stories.

Kate Quilton asks why cherry sweets don’t taste like the real fruit. Briony May Williams explains how ready-to-eat cookie dough doesn’t need to be baked, while Amanda Byram discovers why doughnuts have holes in them. Also, Andi Oliver investigates exactly how much honey is in honeycomb. Male members of the FU team are conspicuously absent. Don’t men scoff sweets too?
