For Sunday 25 August, 2024, this is Food In 5 Minutes - for the 34th time this year - with another selection of food stories from the past week served up for your ears in five minutes or less, ish.

That said, I'm noticing more these days that the timer is running closer to the seven-minute mark, but that's neither here nor there. With the podcast available every Sunday morning, you can also get a written accompaniment packed with recipes to try, more podcast listening, some long reads for your Sunday coffee in more, all right here. It's called The Week In Food and it drops into inboxes around the world about 7am on Sunday mornings.

This week's podcast looks at mounting pressures on the hospitality sector, numbers on Ireland's alcohol consumption, concerns over infant food in the US and more.
