Oikos

Sometimes samples of new products are handed out to the public in front of Leiden Centraal Station. Oikos is a yoghurt of the food gigant Danone. Not a lot of people like straight yoghurt, so this yoghurt comes in four flavours: passion fruit, bilberry, peach and strawberry. Passion fruit and strawberry contain no fat, but all these yoghurts contain more than 10% sugar.

Danone was founded in 1919. During the Second World War Daniel Carasso (the son of the founder and by then owner of Danone) moved to New York to escape persecution of the Germans. The American offshoot of this firm is called Dannon.

You're better off eating plain yoghurt and adding real fruit.

Dear mr. Hancock,

We suggest you use our larger sized yoghurt containers.

I like him a lot. I have all the Hancock's Half Hours. Especially handy if I drive across Europe and no suitable radio channel can be found.

he can still be heard on Radio 4 Extra:

Ah, but all the bad comedy of yesteryear is forgotten, so we think the past only had high-quality comedy.

I like Andrew Mitchell, Milton Jones, Miles Jupp amongst others. Down The Line is also good.

“Oh yes, the Great British Music Hall Tradition. Two men, with incredibly unconvincing Cockney accents going, ‘what's up with you then? What's up with me then? Yeah, what's up with you then?’ GET ON WITH IT!!!”
