  • The popularity of baking bread during coronavirus lockdowns led to an increased demand for flour. Ian Lee gets a tour of a 1,000-year-old mill in Southwest England grinding to rescue with flour power.

    As a positive thing, it's really awesome to see something local get any TV news coverage. It's another thing to see a news network thousands of miles off take interest in it.

    We buy grain and mill it ourselves, but only in a small way, 500g weekly. The taste is amazing, but the best part is that we are getting all the nutrients from the grain, because once flour is milled, it loses nearly all it's goodness within the first 24 hrs. Also by milling your own, you are not restricted to a "shelf life" because un-broken grain lasts indefinitely, so you can safely buy a large sack, knowing that it won't go to waste. Try it!. Best wishes to all in these trying times(orchestrated by the 1% elites).

      There is nothing like really fresh bread. I went on a school trip to Oxford's bakery (the one featured in this news story); I've yet to taste bread anywhere near as good as it in the past 22 odd years.

      Cheryl Carlson ...really hate to see non-US citizens criticize the narrow-mindedness of US citizens, relative to such things. The US is ENORMOUS, and travel outside of our own northern continent is EXTREMELY expensive. Most of us would love to visit other places, but what with our conservatives defunding every aspect of the government, extremely poor wages, NO MEDICAL CARE, and many, many legally-enforced sorts of “insurance,” few can ever afford the money or time it takes to travel anywhere but our own backyard.
      And the phrase, “Only in ____” is not exclusively utilized by US journalists.
      Why couldn’t you just enjoy the fact that American journalists were saying nice things about Brits? You need to take a hard look at yourself.
