About this listen

Anj and Joe unpeel the many layers of onions - the most ubiquitous food in the world - in this first episode. We discuss their basic biology, recount their historical trade from ancient Egypt through to the 'onion johnnies' who would transport them by bike and delve into their use in folklore, magic and medicine. Are onions truly among the great unifying forces on this planet?
