  • Andy Allen Was Just One Exam Short of Becoming a Fully-Qualified Electrician When He Entered Masterchef Australia As a Dare from His Mates
    Andy Allen was just one exam short of becoming a fully-qualified electrician when he entered Masterchef Australia as a dare from his mates. Four years later, he hasn’t looked back. The boy from Maitland had a culinary baptism of fire during the series, eventually walking away with the title of Masterchef’s youngest ever winner. Andy soon packed his bags and moved to Sydney, and began working under the guidance of Darren Robertson and Mark LaBrooy at Bronte’s Three Blue Ducks. In 2013 Andy and his mate Ben Milbourne (Masterchef 2012 alumni) made good on their promise of visiting Mexico together, and it’s here that they connected with a Producer and began filming their culinary travels, in what became web series Andy & Ben Do Mexico. From here, things continued to remain flatout in the kitchen for Andy, but the curious chef had a foodie travel itch he couldn’t ignore. Next up, the boys co-produced the Spain and Portugal leg of what became their first television series Andy & Ben Eat The World, which received national broadcast in 2015. In 2016 Andy hit the road closer to home, with Andy & Ben Eat Australia. Andy is an author, a blogger (he won Pedestrian’s 10th Annual Food Blogger of the Year in 2015). He has appeared on The Today Show America, worked with numerous charities and continues to make people laugh and learn new things about food by sharing his passion for learning. In 2016, Andy added ‘restauranter’ to his CV, going into business as co-owner and chef of the Three Blue Ducks, Rosebery.

  • Masterchef Australia Serves up a Cast of Favourites. Masterchef Australia: Back to Win Contestants Announced
    Media Release 19 February 2020 MasterChef Australia Serves Up A Cast Of Favourites. MasterChef Australia: Back To Win Contestants Announced. MasterChef Australia, Australia’s premier cooking show is returning for its 12th season with a brand new recipe. With a bevy of familiar faces, our 24 talented and passionate former contestants are back to win, taking to the kitchen floor for the biggest opportunity of their lives – to claim the trophy which eluded them once Network 10 before. A ViacomCBS Company This is the who’s who of MasterChef Australia from across all 11 previous seasons - the favourites, the beloved and the ones who set our taste buds alight. They’ve gone home and celebrated glowing careers, but have returned to risk it all for the elusive first place, and to hold aloft the coveted trophy. Season One runner up, Poh Ling Yeow, said: “I’ve been waiting for this moment for 10 years and now I’m back. I have a little bit of unfinished business.” Season Two runner up, Callum Hann, said: “Everyone who’s here is at the top of their game. This is going to be really, really tough. There’s cookbook authors, TV presenters, restaurant owners and those who just missed out.” Season Three contestant, Hayden Quinn, said: “MasterChef changed my life. I’m stoked to be going up against the best of the best. I’ve learnt a lot, my skills have improved, I’m here to take it out.” Season Seven contestant, Reynold Poernomo, said: “When I was eliminated, it was gut wrenching.

    SUPERFOOD ME: NEGOTIATING AUSTRALIA’S POST-GOURMET FOOD CULTURE Katherine Eulynn Kirkwood BMassComn BMedia&Comn(Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Digital Media Research Centre | School of Communication Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2021 Keywords Animal products Big Food Culinary culture Culinary media Ethical consumption Food culture Food media Food television Food System Exposé Meat Post-Gourmet Strategic Impact Documentary Super Size Me Sustainable consumption That Sugar Film Vegetarianism Veganism Waste Superfood Me: Negotiating Australia’s Post-Gourmet Food Culture i Abstract Australian food culture has arguably adopted a more health-conscious and ethical stance. This position is also reflected in contemporary food media, which is emerging in a post-broadcast environment. This thesis examines these developments in food culture and food media, positing that Australia is in the midst of what I call a post-gourmet phase. It argues that consumers are increasingly aware of the industrial food system’s consequences and that such concerns are manifested in the adoption of ethically and sustainably focused food practices. A key way in which the machinations of the industrial food system have entered mainstream consciousness is through a genre of texts I label Food System Exposés (FSEs). I argue that although these non- fiction books—like Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma—and documentaries—like Super Size Me—have existed for decades, their recent proliferation warrants recognising these texts as a key genre in shaping contemporary food discourses. These changes are brought to light in this thesis through two methods.
