The same biscuit, from the same factory, costs 60% more in the UK — and the company that did it got fined €337 million. So why is nobody here doing anything about it?
In this video, I trace your food bill from the checkout to the boardroom. I look at who really controls UK food prices (spoiler: it’s five companies in fancy dress), why farmers get a tenth of a penny profit on a loaf of bread while manufacturers pocket 17%, and what happened when the EU caught one of the world’s biggest food corporations rigging prices across borders.
Then I dig into the UK side — the regulator that found the evidence and walked away, the nutrition panel where 11 out of 17 advisors have food industry money, the 1,408 meetings between food ministers and industry versus 35 with charities, and the one government statistic that would have made the whole thing obvious… that quietly disappeared.
