food safety issue you're talking about borishead and you know they they had issues in the plant that were just being ignored is it the same with cider you know if you're not really paying attention to this then that's potentially negligence Correct. So, and if that led to some form of a malicious intent on the food company that led to a food safety problem that led to potential injuries or deaths all the way back.

Well, hi, Rick. Thanks for joining the show. I'm going to jump straight into it before you do your introduction. I would like to know what your favorite food is and your favorite food memory.
I don't know what my favorite food is because I like lots of food.
Do you have a food fixation at the minute? No. Okay.
I'm very blessed with my wife, my partner, who is an absolutely phenomenal cook. And I've been told many times that I'm just a very lucky man. I get really great meals three times a day. So favorite, yeah, there's some things that I like, but let's put it this way. Let's reverse this. There's very few things I don't like. That's what I come down to. But you asked the second question, which was food experience. That I have an answer. Okay. Actually, my wife and I were traveling in Europe on business. And we were in Brussels. And we ended up going to a restaurant called Truffes du Noir. Okay. It was on the very northern part of the city. And a restaurant that had everything on the menu had truffles. The experience was unbelievable.
Not only was the food good, but the experience itself was. We just happened to be served by the owner of the restaurant. Love that. And he explained everything to us, and he had... Both kinds of truffles. And even he, when we ordered a bottle of wine, we relied on his recommendation. But then he handled the wine, which I'd never seen before. I actually had no idea what he was doing. So I had to ask and he explained. having the pouring the wine from the bottle over the candle with the neck of the bottle being heated by the candle into a decanter does something extra to open up the wine and have it blossom and boy was he right. Yeah. Probably never spent that much money on a dinner.
It's experience. You paid for the experience.
And we still talk about it to this day. It was really amazing.
That sounds amazing. Of course, you have to like truffles in order to appreciate this experience.
Yeah. But, you know, I mean, we even had truffles on ice cream.
I've heard that's good. I mean, I like caviar and coconut ice cream, which is a weird combo too. Okay.
And so on everything that he would serve, everything, he would have the truffles in his hand and a grater and would shave it on top of your, in addition to what was already cooked into it as well. That's amazing. It was an amazing experience.
That sounds so fun. So I love your memory. That's brilliant. And also, I think that we can say your favorite food is probably anything your wife makes.
