Three Food Memories
The things you find out when you ask people about their food memories can be soulful, spicy, sensational, sour, and sublime. Often you'll discover something you never knew about the person you asked - and this is what the Three Food Memories podcast is about, how every food memory is linked to a moment in time.
Three Food Memories is hosted by Savva Savas, dad of twin boys, entrepreneur, caterer, and creator. In each episode Savva chats with a guest who shares three food memories and a social cause close to their heart, revealing far more about themselves than what they’ve tasted.
Be prepared for some hilarious and otherwise never-heard-before stories, and if you love listening - please tell your friends (and like, subscribe, and follow for all the goodness!)
Three Food Memories
Phoebe Greenwood, author and former war correspondent
“The first year here, you're going to hate the Israeli government. The second year here, you're going to hate the Palestinian leadership. The third year here, you're going to hate yourself. And then it's a good idea that you leave.”
In this episode you'll meet Phoebe Greenwood, journalist, author, and former war correspondent whose debut book Vulture is a speedy satire of the war news industry and its moral blind spots based in Gaza during the 2012 war.
On the menu is; jam drop biscuits, Aussie potato scallops, and Palestinian musakhen made with love.
Phoebe's social cause is Medical Aid for Palestinians. You can donate through the link, or search map.org.uk.
Medical Aid for Palestinians is warning of a deepening malnutrition emergency in Gaza. 44% of pregnant and breastfeeding mothers screened by one of its local partners are suffering from severe malnutrition and urgently need to be referred for medical treatment.
This alarming data was reported by Ard El Insan (AEI), a longstanding local humanitarian partner of MAP, which has been delivering nutrition and medical support to Palestinians across Gaza. Until last week, AEI operated a medical point in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, which provided essential care and nutrition services to around 200 malnourished women and children every day. But following forced displacement orders issued by the Israeli military on Sunday 20 July, the medical point was forced to shut down.
Despite the massive disruption caused by the forced displacement orders and the ongoing siege, MAP continues to operate in Gaza – though our ability to deliver services is becoming increasingly difficult and dangerous. We are still trying to operate eight other nutrition medical points across southern Gaza.
