Episode description

In the lead up to the Paris Games, Olympic gold medallist Michelle Ford joins us on the Food Bytes podcast this week for a fascinating chat about the highs and lows of life as a professional swimmer.

The 1980 Moscow Olympics were always going to be political. With athletes strongly advised not to go, Michelle opens up about the pressure of being a teenager with a huge decision to make.

We also talk about Michelle’s life in Switzerland, the joys of Swiss chocolate, her newly-released book Turning The Tide … and her steady childhood diet of hot chips and vanilla slices!

Our Food Poll this week features a classic bikkie barrel battle between Monte Carlos and Delta Creams.

Presented by Sarah Patterson & Kevin Hillier
