Recently I've been thinking about this... regarding food safety and plastic container (doesn't help after watching a german english documentary about it!)

where I live (Hungary), I buy daily at least 2 x 1.5 litre bottle of mineral water. We just don't like the taste of tap water. We send the bottles for recycling. At the moment, I don't see other option other than using a filter in the future.

While in Malaysia (my homeland), we drink boiled tap water !

I recommend you guys watch Masterchef UK and Australia (slightly more drama in Aus. version) very satisfying as they do not compromise the food over reality tv.

I understand Jamie's passion and genuine in helping people eating healthily but I didn't like him in this series at times. Too much drama...

While he is so natural and at ease in his new programme "Jamie does" (UK production channel 4) .
