Hoovering with Jessica Fostekew
Hoovering - Episode 35: Rachel Riley
Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.
This week my guest is only Countdown mega-brains and former superstar of Strictly… RACHEL RILEY. We’re talking living in an ex-brothel, overcoming mega-health issues. And guess which animal’s willy she’s seen?!
Recipes
Rachel made lots of lovely fresh salads and smoked humous from Riverford as well as the creamiest guacamole, ever. And I made a pinto bean dip - which I’ll take photo graphs of the recipe and add them to the Facebook post for this podcast which you and click to get to HERE.

The film I watched that made me start my flirtation with veganism is called CARNAGE by Simon Amstell and is on iplayer now. And the best vegan breakfast in Manchester is Salford’s GRINDSMITHS.
And the best vegan mayonnaise is VEGANAISE.
