Hugh Fearlessly Eats it All Dispatches from the Gastronomic Frontline
For almost two decades, 'Hugh Fearlessly-Eats-It-All' has been writing about food in all its guises. To some, his concept of 'good eating' might seem a bit skewed - he'd always bypass a McBurger in favour of a squirrel sandwich, and make a detour for fresh road kill - but to others he is a shining and shaggy beacon of good sense in a food world gone mad. Armed with a broad mind, a quick wit and a ready appetite, Hugh covers almost every area of global food culture. Whether singing the praises of offal; debunking Colonel Sanders and Dr Atkins; playing 'poisson roulette' with the deadly fugu fish in Tokyo; pondering the moral inconsistency of those who condemn fox hunting for its cruelty while happily tucking into factory-farmed chicken; fishing for marlin in Kenya, Hugh has an unerring ability to entertain and provoke.

A talented writer, broadcaster and campaigner, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall is widely known for his uncompromising commitment to seasonal, ethically produced food. His books, journalism and series for Channel 4 have earned him a huge popular following. Hugh started living in the original River Cottage in rural Dorset in 1998, determined to start growing and rearing some of his own food. His steep learning curve was documented in the *Escape to River Cottage* series (1999), which won him a big audience. Following this success, and the publication of *The River Cottage Cookbook* (2001) which won several awards, he was able to establish River Cottage HQ near Bridport in 2004. <sup>[1][1]</sup> [1]: http://www.rivercottage.net/Page~59/Hugh.aspx
