Episode description

From the VFL days of old to the confectionery aisle at ALDI, Bulldogs legend Simon Beasley takes us on a nostalgic (and very sweet) journey in the latest ep of the Food Bytes podcast.

Simon shares with us his memories of life growing up in WA, the magic of his mum’s chocolate pudding, working as a stockbroker during his playing days, hiding sweet treats around the house – and the unforgettable intercept of 1984 at Footscray’s Western Oval that saved the day!

As for our Food Poll this week … we’re known here at Food Bytes for our crazy capers, but what are your thoughts on the ones that come out of a jar?
