Blood, Sweat & Takeaways

When it comes to food, we're spoilt for choice - walk down any high street and you can get food for less than a fiver from all over the world. But would we feel the same if we knew the human cost of food production?

In the follow up to the BAFTA nominated BBC 3 series Blood, Sweat and T-shirts, 6 typical young British food consumers live and work alongside the millions of people in South East Asia's food production industries who make the food we eat every day.

These Brits eat, sleep and live with food workers in the poorest regions of Indonesia and Thailand, surviving on their basic wages. The group embarks on a shocking journey of discovery as they see behind the scenes of these food industries for the very first time.
