Britain is home to some amazing food. I love a good Turkish fig or Greek olive, but over the last year or so I've been trying harder and harder to eat seasonal, British food, and it's been an eye-opener. Knowing what to look for and when to look, you can pick up some delicious bargains. The other day, I bought a bunch of purple sprouting broccoli from Kent which cost me a pound and tasted like it was grown in God's back garden. And this wasn't at a farmer's market or a branch of Wholefoods, but at my local Morrisons (I found it next to a crate of green beans from Kenya and some asparagus from Mexico).

I've made an Android App which you can pull out in such a situation to get an instant overview of what's going to be good right now. It's called "In Season" and I would be thrilled if you would go to the Android Market, download it and tell me what you think of it.
