Dave O'Neil and Kitty Flanagan investigate junk food, old and new.

It's a roundabout of salt and sweet, bygone and brand new, crunchy and chewy.

Join Possum and The Big Guy!

 

There's also The Junkees Facebook Group ;)

The sweet and salty roundabout, get on board!

The Junkees - Dave O'Neil and Kitty Flanagan

Dave O'Neil and Kitty Flanagan are on the sweet and salty roundabout.

Investigating their favourite, forgotten and future junk foods.

Chips, lollies, toffee, jubes, jellies and any other junk available at supermarkets, petrol stations and milk bars.



Tell a friend about the show or leave a review wherever you can. On a Post-it around the house is fine.
