Fruit & Veg Flavour for Tasmanian Rural Women in Agriculture
On Saturday the 12th March in St Helens, Tasmania, Dr Hazel MacTavish-West will present to the Tasmanian Rural Women in Agriculture all about fruit and vegetable flavour, health benefits and eating to maximise the benefits.
Hazel will present an interactive session, explaining why eating fruits and vegetables is worth bothering about, and how to get the most out of your produce. She's also got some interesting demonstrations lined up to show you how to make broccoli taste really awful (trust me, you're probably already doing this at home), how to make carrots taste sweeter, and to show you what really is an antioxidant, and what does it do?
More details about the event can be found by clicking here. 
There will also be an opportunity to fill in a new vegetable eating survey being undertaken by Eat Well Tasmania, and a prize for the person who correctly identifies all the mystery fruit and vegetable flavours. Come along and enjoy the fun!
"Tasty Feedback"
MacTavish:West has a respected track record within the fresh produce industry, qualified and experienced in nutritional science with respect to fresh produce. We were impressed with the quality of scientific input and their ability to respond to deadlines. A recent proposal they put forward showed the best scientific approach to our call and Dr Hazel MacTavish-West's skill set was perfect. The proposal was successfully funded.
