Food and Drink (3)

For example, I wanted to win the game at all costs. I didn't know you were so competitive,

Neil. And finally, demonize means to make someone or something seem very bad. Politicians shouldn't

demonize their opponents. They often do, though, don't they? Okay, well that's all we've got time

for on today's show, but please check out our Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Youtube pages.

Join us again soon! Meanwhile, visit our website: bbclearningenglish.com where you'll find

guides to grammar exercises, videos and articles to read and improve your English. Goodbye. Bye.

Hello, this is 6 Minute English. I'm Neil and I'm Catherine. Catherine are you flexitarian? Oh no,

I'm not really religious, Neil. It's not a religion, it's a diet. It means mainly eating

plant-based foods and only occasionally eating meat. Oh, I see. Sorry, um, well,

I don't eat too much meat, so i'm kind of on the way to flexitarianism. Some people don't eat meat

for ethical reasons - that means that for them, it's wrong to eat meat. It's wrong that animals

should be killed for our food but one of the reasons for being flexitarian and only eating meat

once in a while is for the benefit of the planet. According to a recent report, being flexitarian is

healthier for the individual but can also help to fight climate change. Before we look in more

detail at this topic, a question - do you like peppers, Catherine? Yes, I do. Is that correct?

Well , that's not the quiz question but this is - all peppers are in the same food group. What group

is it? Are peppers fruit, vegetables or herbs? Any ideas? This one sounds like a trick question

but I think it's obviously vegetables. Yep? Well, you'll have to wait a bit to find

out. I'll have the answer later in the program. Now, Dr Marco Springmann

is from the University of Oxford and was one of the lead authors of a major report

that looked at the global food system and how it affects the climate. On the BBC Today program,

he talked about what changes would be needed. Does he mention just one thing?

We really found that a combination of measures would be needed to stay within environmental

limits and those include changes towards healthier more plant-based diets, ambitious

technological improvements and changes in farming management and a reduction of food loss and waste.

So, did he mention just one thing, Catherine? No, not at all. He said that there would need

to be a combination of measures which means a variety of different actions

including moving to a plant-based diet, developing technology, changing the way we farm and wasting

less food. He described the need for ambitious technological improvements. Ambitious here means

the developments will have to be impressive - above the ordinary, not simple. Dr Springmann

was asked if we had to completely remove meat from the food that we eat to be healthy. What was his

recommendation? Well, we look... we've surveyed the literature on what a healthy diet is and

according to that, um, if you treat it as luxury it's probably okay but you shouldn't have more

than one serving of red meat, which includes beef and pork, per week. So the more plant-based you go

the healthier and the lower in environmental impacts. And lamb is just the same? Yes.

So, do we need to cut out meat entirely? He says that while a plant-based diet is certainly

healthier, you could still have some red meat but only once a week. Yes. He said think of it as a

luxury - a luxury food is one that we really enjoy but don't eat very often. perhaps because it's

very expensive or rare. Or delicious but very bad for us. We eat it as a treat but not every day.

Springman says we should think of red meat in the same way - it shouldn't be a regular part of our

diet. How did he come to this opinion? Did they just make it up themselves because it sounds like

a good idea? Not at all, Neil. He said that they surveyed the literature - this means that as part

of their report, they studied different scientific research that had previously been published. Their

advice is based on the evidence of those research papers. Okay, now the answer to our quiz question.

I asked: to what food group do peppers belong. Was it a) fruit, b) vegetables c) herbs? Catherine,

you said... I said b) vegetables. Oh dear. Good try but not right. Thanks for playing. The answer

is a) fruit. Fruit? Really? Yes, a fruit is the part of a plant that contains the seeds,

so peppers, like tomatoes, pumpkins, avocados and olives are actually fruit. Well done if you

got that one right. Now our vocabulary. Our first word is flexitarian - this is the term for a diet

that is mainly plant-based but can include meat occasionally. Our next word is ethical - this is

in the context of choosing not to eat meat. Some people are vegetarian because they don't like meat

some because they want a healthier diet and some for ethical reasons. This means that their choice

is because they feel it is the right thing to do. The next phrase was a combination of

measures - this means taking different actions to achieve something - not just doing one thing. We

then had ambitious. If a person's ambitious, it means they want to get on in life and be

successful. But ambitious can also be used to describe a plan or achievement which is impressive

and above the ordinary. The next phrase was to survey the literature. This means

to study and analyze the different scientific research on a particular subject. And finally,

we had luxury - when talking about food, a luxury is something that we only eat occasionally as a

special treat because it's expensive or unhealthy but delicious. Well, I'm off for a plate of

delicious vegetables - please join us next time and why not check us out on your favourite social

media platform on our app and, of course, the website: bbclearningenglish.com Goodbye. Bye.

Hello. This is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English. I'm Neil and I'm Georgina. I'm going to

order some takeaway food, Neil. Do you want anything? Maybe a pizza? Fish and chips?

Indian curry? Mmm, take away food to eat at home - that's a great idea. Yes, I'll have a poke bowl,

please. What's that? It doesn't sound like typical takeaway food. It is nowadays, Georgina.

Over the last few years, the explosion of food delivery apps like Deliveroo and Just Eat

has seen a revolution in takeaway food. Today, it's not just pizza and curries being delivered

to people's front door - there's a wide range of food dishes and styles from all around the world.

And with cafes and pubs closed during lockdown, more and more food chains and restaurants are

switching to delivery only services - takeaways, to bring meals to people who are isolating. Over

the last few weeks, many takeaway companies have seen orders increase dramatically as people find

themselves stuck at home due to the coronavirus pandemic. But what are they choosing to eat?

That's my quiz question for today, Georgina. Last year, what was Deliveroo's most ordered dish:

was it a) Hawaiian poke bowls, b) cheeseburgers or c) chicken burritos?

I would have thought it was fish and chips but I'll go with b) cheeseburgers. Okay, we'll find

out later if you were right. One consequence of the increasing popularity of takeaways is

something called dark kitchens - unlike apps such as Deliveroo and Just Eat which connect customers

to local takeaways, these digital dark kitchens work as just for delivery restaurants. Inside,

chefs cook in kitchens without waiters tables or diners, preparing high-quality dishes ready

for delivery straight to your home. One of the first dark kitchen operations, Taster,

was started by chef Anton Soulier who in 2013 was working for Deliveroo when it was just a

tiny company operating only in London. Now he's in charge of 12 kitchens catering for customers in

London, Paris and Madrid. Sheila Dillon of BBC radio 4's, The Food Programme went to the Bethnal

Green area of east London to find out more. When you go on the Taster website, the restaurant names

are virtual. All of them sold as 'designed for delivery' by Taster. What that means is all the

menus drawn up by serious chefs are designed to travel well, chosen so they'll be warm,

retain their texture and won't look like a dog's dinner when they come off the back of a bike.

So, strangely the delivery, the bike has become a shaper of the foods we eat. All the restaurants

on Taster are virtual, existing online and created by computers to appear like the real thing. Chefs

cook the dishes using recipes and ingredients designed to travel well - be transported a long

way without being damaged or their quality being spoiled. That's to avoid the takeaway food ending

up like a dog's dinner - an informal way to say something that looks messy or has been very badly

done. Usually, the takeaways are transported in a box on the back of a delivery cyclist who rushes

them from the kitchen to the customer's home. It's a very modern way of eating which Sheila thinks

has become a shaper of the foods we eat - meaning that it has a strong influence on how a situation

develops. However, some are worried that the increase in takeaways and delivery-only food

means people are losing basic cooking skills. It's something that Taster boss, Anton, has noted too.

There is a strong underlying trend that, maybe, you know - in 20, 30 years people won't have

kitchens and it's already happening in the U.S., for example. I love cooking - it's one of my

passions but I'm really doing it occasionally - on Sundays and everything, and I think it's going to

almost become a weekend hobby. People choosing to eat takeaways instead of cooking at home has

become an underlying trend - a general development in how people behave, which is real but not

immediately obvious. And in the future, cooking at home may even switch from being a daily necessity

to a hobby - an activity someone does in their spare time for pleasure or relaxation. I do enjoy

tucking into a takeaway sometimes but personally I couldn't survive without my kitchen, Neil.

Ah, but could you survive without Deliveroo? Remember in today's quiz question, I asked you

what Deliveroo's most ordered dish was. I said b) cheeseburgers, but the correct answer was a

Hawaiian poke bowl - a Hawaiian version of sushi. Now that's something I couldn't cook at home.

Today, we've been discussing the revolution in takeaways and home delivered food which in recent

years has become an underlying trend - a general development in how people behave or in this case,

eat. Another trend has been the creation of virtual restaurants - online restaurants which

look like the real thing but exist only on the internet. Chefs create dishes using ingredients

which travel well - can be transported a long way without being damaged or spoiled. That's so

the customer doesn't end up with a dog's dinner - an informal expression meaning something messy

or badly done. Recent developments like high quality restaurant meals being delivered by bike

are shapers of modern eating - things that have a strong influence on how a situation develops.

All of which means that cooking may soon become just a hobby - an activity someone does in their

spare time for pleasure or relaxation. For example, cycling or learning English.

That's all we have time for today. Happy cooking! And goodbye for now! Bye.

passions but I'm really doing it occasionally - on  Sundays and everything, and I think it's going to

almost become a weekend hobby. People choosing  to eat takeaways instead of cooking at home has

immediately obvious. And in the future, cooking at  home may even switch from being a daily necessity ||||||||||||||||necessity

Ah, but could you survive without Deliveroo?  Remember in today's quiz question, I asked you

what Deliveroo's most ordered dish was. I said  b) cheeseburgers, but the correct answer was a

Hawaiian poke bowl - a Hawaiian version of sushi.  Now that's something I couldn't cook at home. |||||||sushi||||||||

Today, we've been discussing the revolution in  takeaways and home delivered food which in recent

years has become an underlying trend - a general  development in how people behave or in this case,

eat. Another trend has been the creation of  virtual restaurants - online restaurants which ||||||creation||||||

look like the real thing but exist only on the  internet. Chefs create dishes using ingredients

which travel well - can be transported a long  way without being damaged or spoiled. That's so

the customer doesn't end up with a dog's dinner  - an informal expression meaning something messy

or badly done. Recent developments like high  quality restaurant meals being delivered by bike

are shapers of modern eating - things that have  a strong influence on how a situation develops.

All of which means that cooking may soon become  just a hobby - an activity someone does in their

spare time for pleasure or relaxation.  For example, cycling or learning English.

That's all we have time for today.  Happy cooking! And goodbye for now! Bye.

much? Uh, well, I think in the future I might have  a sandwich in about 30 minutes in the future. Uh,
