If Lorne could clap on cue, this episode might've started a whole lot smoother... Welcome back to the Dinner Table with Lorne, Em & Cam.

This week we're unpacking the latest NZ brands making headlines for all the wrong reasons, Em discovers a few eye-opening farm-to-plate (and farm-to-fashion) facts that somehow escaped her until now, and Cam brings a collection of "interesting" facts that are all equally questionable.

Then we make the mistake of asking one of the most controversial questions imaginable... what is the most elite type of bread? It's a bold debate to have without Cherie at the table.

Pull up a chair, settle in, and let us know where you stand.

Welcome back to the Around The Dinner Table Podcast! This week, you're joined by Cherie, Em and Cam.

We get a little deeper than usual as we unpack the age-old question: does money really buy happiness? And at what point do you decide you have enough?

We also recap our time at Fieldays, chat about Pepper & Me's upcoming 10th birthday celebrations, and share the excitement around our latest collaboration with Pics Peanut Butter.

Plus, we tackle a very important debate: what is New Zealand's most iconic food? Unsurprisingly, Em and Cam can't seem to agree on a single answer.

Welcome back to the Table! Pull up a chair and join Cherie, Lorne and Em this week.

We're talking wine, what's your go-to? Are you as hopeless as Em when it comes to ordering a bottle at a restaurant? Have you ever confidently ordered what you thought was a white, only for a red to arrive at the table?

Meanwhile, Cherie is counting down the days until New York, but securing a reservation at the restaurants on her hit list is proving harder than anticipated. And if she does manage to get a table, can she afford to order a $50 martini?
