  • Why give wishbone kitchen a platform ?

    Enjoyed this podcast before you had wishbone kitchen on. Spews hate against our president and makes up stories for sympathy. Unfollowed both of you ✌️

  • Supports Erasure and Cultural Appropriation

    I feel so deeply sad that Cherry Bombe has decided to give a platform to someone like Eden Grinshpan- a woman that has made a whole career off of cultural appropriation and erasure of the Palestinian people. I loved Cherry Bombe so much, but to platform Eden so many times is unacceptable. Do better Kerry!

  • Platforming cultural erasure

    Very disappointed that a show I normally love and which seems to celebrate diversity would platform Eden, whose erasure of Palestinian people and their cuisine is so unabashed. I was going to give the channel the benefit of the doubt, but then Kerry mentioned she follows her on instagram, which is where she has spewed hateful rhetoric against Palestinians. Lost a subscriber from me.

The Coolest Lady In Food, Ruthie Rogers Of The River Cafe In London
Q: Tell us about how Ruthie's Table 4 evolved into Table 4 at the River Cafe.
The project grew organically from a podcast into a book because we already had a rich archive of interviews and a clear idea that storytelling through food could connect people; the editors and Amy Bell supported turning conversations into a cohesive book structure with chapters like 'food is family' and 'food is politics'.
