Food Investigators

On episode seven of Food Investigators: Red Hot Chilli Peppers, we examine the amazing health benefits of the fiery fruit from South America. Host Joe Avati takes on the hottest chilli in the world, the King Cobra of chilli's which rates one million on the chilli heat scale, and we explain that the burn is not a burn at all. It's all in your mind.

Renee Lim goes on board the HMAS Manoora for a look at how our Navy keeps our sailors happy with good food at sea. Things have definitely changed since Lord Nelson's day, and even picky eaters are catered for by the catering crew awarded The Australian navy's best in 2008.

Also in episode seven, Joe Avati examines the humble Aussie sausage and separates the best from the rest. We look at taste, nutrition, and meat and fat content, and Joe gives the definitive demonstration on how to cook the perfect snag.

To round off the evening Food Dietitian, Hanan Saleh explains how to eat your way to a good night's sleep. Forget the sleeping pills. A turkey and salad sandwich is all you need.
