Synopsis
Food is photographed a lot. From features in the weekend papers to oozing pudding adverts on TV - from shots on supermarket packaging to the artful single lettuce leaf suspended above the aisle.. It's quite possible that we see more photographs of food than we do real food. In the first of two programmes about portrayal of food, Sheila Dillon explores the world of commercial food photography. Do they REALLY use mashed potato instead of ice-cream? And which image on the cover of a food mag is most likely to shift copies? Sheila is joined by cook/foodwriter, Nigel Slater, to discuss the changing fashions in depicting dinner.
Show us your dinner!
For the second of our programmes on food photography, we want to see YOUR photos. Have you taken a picture of a cake you’re proud of? Do you like showing off your extravagant meals? What are you having for lunch today or dinner tomorrow?
Email us your favourite photo to thefoodprogramme@bbc.co.uk. And please just send your photos of food - not the people eating it.
