She’s been a familiar presence on our TV screens for decades. Now, legendary news presenter Sandra Sully joins us on the Food Bytes podcast this week.

Sandra shares with us everything from her ‘meat and three veg’ childhood days in Brisbane to her accidental foray into what has become a celebrated media career.

This week’s Friday Food Poll is a tussle of two circular, fried-up favourites, as we put pineapple fritters up against onion rings

As we sharpen our Ginsus in preparation for a slashing start to the new year, here we take a brief moment to reflect on some of the incredible people who joined us in 2025. 

International television icon Alison Arngrim shared stories of the role that changed her life - playing Nellie Oleson on Little House on the Prairie. She also served us up a very special scrambled egg tip.

Steph de Sousa told us about her MasterChef experiences and how keeping the kitchen as a happy, simple and fun place isn't that hard. What a revelation she was. 

Despite not getting the accolades he thinks he deserves for his kitchen prowess, former Australian cricketer Simon O'Donnell regailed us with his thoughts on the mighty Brussels sprout and what might have been in his sucessful acting career. 

And the final words for 2025 involve Sooshi Mango, meat pies, tinned spaghetti and Hawaiian pizza. What could go wrong?

Best of 2025 Volume Two

As the curtain closes on 2025, a chance to revisit some of the fabulous people we have had on the show this year - and it's a goody bag of guests to delight.

International celeb chef Curtis Stone fondly remembers his early days in the kitchen and its special family connection. Dr.Joanna McMillan blue ticked all the great guest boxes, bonding with Sarah over a can of mackerel and talking protein and questionable food diaries. The irrepressible Craig Bennett shared some hilarious moments from his adventures as a globetrotting entertainment reporter.   

Dessert maestro Adriano Zumbo pops in with a surprising kitchen tip - and don't miss multi-media star Virginia Trioli's coffee confession.

The Food Poll will return in 2026 and your suggestions are welcome via our social media platforms. Happy New Year. Have fun and stay safe.

Best of 2025 Volume One

If, like us, you are about to Ho Ho Ho into a food-filled Christmas, have we got some helpful hints to share thanks to our guest this week, Brendan Pang.

You will remember Brendan from his MasterChef days and as well as sharing some memories from that life-changing experience, he gives us the rundown on having a prawn-filled Christmas feast. Everything from buying and peeling (including the dreaded the poop chute) to some beautiful dishes to prepare for the family. Brendan also gives us some very handy and timely rice cooking tips. 

The Food Poll is another festive-inspired sweet treat showdown. Are you going shortbread or gingerbread?
