As my good friend and blogger Tom observes, the Middle East has a new front.
Outside his supermarket he found campaigners urging him to Boycott Israel. In my local supermarket, that would be difficult. The only thing I can think of that comes from Israel, is rosemary: something which, incidentally, grows perfectly well in Britain. But it's a growing trend. A Palestinian olive oil producer makes great play of its political credentials. The Israelis, meanwhile, are fighting back. But a lot of the links don't seem to work. Who will win the food fight?

Israeli organic potatoes vanished from supermarkets in Scotland shortly after the attack on Lebanon. They were quite nice, but no one was touching them.
