Food habits change as we age How To Be Old

Today I’m lucky — you’re lucky!—because Lois Daish is here to talk about some aspects of food and eating in old age. Our food habits necessarily change as we start to get old. In Lois's long life as a food writer and cook, two things have changed radically: our national food culture and her personal food habits.
If you’re a Kiwi, you will be very familiar with the work of today's guest. She is one of New Zealand’s most distinguished and beloved culinary guides, actively involved for darn near 50 years. She has been a restauranteur and a regular writer for the New Zealand Listener. She has always been a splendid cook. Her most recent honour occurred in 2023, when she was installed in the Hall of Fame for Women in Food & Drink, Aotearoa New Zealand. Lois Daish is an essential ingredient of our national memory of food.
From her long experience, Lois has seen many changes in our national food habits. She also talks about the most mundane effects of aging, such as farting as you go up the stairs. Can you guess what the nursery rhyme is today?
