I hate to touch things from food festivals now - I'm really cautious about doing it, if so.
Not quite sure what it fits in with in the Business Studies curriculum (GCSE), but we went over it for a week or two in the last academic school year. I didn't come down with anything, but my Business Studies teacher said he did.
I think there's always the danger of that, and it certainly puts people off - it does me anyway. I've never been to this festival before, but I've been to a couple of others it's always been a good day out. Great way to encourage people to try new food and drink, and more importantly to shop local. I think I've probably got more chance of losing my tastebuds to chilli than anything else
