At London’s Impala, sweetbreads come with salted onions and pickled green chillies.

TikTok is warning about seed oils â hereâs what viral trends arenât telling you (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Buying cooking oil used to be one of the less consequential parts of the weekly shop. Now, depending on which corner of social media youâre doomscrolling, itâs apparently something you need to investigate. TikTok has recently cast seed oils â sunflower, rapeseed, grapeseed and their various relatives â as nutritional villains, to be blamed for everything from inflammation and obesity to chronic disease.

Elsewhere, things are happening on a slightly more human scale. Romy Gill is finally opening h
Why lentils are the new superfood â and five ways we can all eat more (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The lentil has finally made it into government policy. Under the biggest overhaul of school food standards in England for more than a decade, schools will be expected to serve far more wholegrains, vegetables and pulses when the new rules come into force from September 2027. Lentils and chickpeas are specifically named: pulses will have to be included within or alongside menu options at least once a week, with some requirements phased in more slowly for secondary schools.
