It is 20 years since
Glynn Christian left New Zealand. In this four-part series he returns to his homeland to see what changes have taken place - particularly to the eating habits of New Zealanders.
Land of Milk and Money In this, the second programme of the series,
Glynn Christian visits the south of North Island - home of the famous New Zealand dairy farming industry.
It is here too that the Kiwi fruit flourishes, and Glynn discovers its true versatility as an accompaniment to savoury dishes, and as a sweet wine popular with the Japanese because of its high vitamin C content.
On Lake Taupo he catches rainbow trout which are barbecued with sugar, lemon and herbs for lunch. His journey ends in Wellington with a tour of the meat markets and the chance to taste some new and exotic dishes in a local restaurant.
