Local food, for tourist people

It's food festival time again around the UK and everyone's invited, except Jacques Chirac. Gastro-tourism now counts for nearly £4billion a year.

Britain produces 700 regional cheeses - more than France
It has 600 varieties of apple
And 125 species of fish and shellfish in its waters
For British Food Fortnight, the BBC's Action Network website will detail local projects
