    Janella, I just can't get enough of your way of cooking I look forward to every show to learn that little bit more. I recently bought some galangal which the friendly grocer talked me into buying and when I got it home, thought now what do I do with it. After watching you make the pickles, I now know where this lot will be going.

    My husband and I just decovered the show. It is the best cooking show we have seen. We both enjoy cooking and can relate to the good and bad side of all ingredients. I sometimes feel that I am watching us in the kitchen discussing what we should be eating for our health. I am wondering - is there a Good Chef Bad Chef cook book or DVD?

    I appreciate Janella's stance on food, but I just wish that sometimes she would let Gary cook without butting in and going on and on about how bad his food is. He lets her cook without constantly remarking her food often has the texture of cardboard, or is tasteless. I just wish she'd shut up sometimes. I wanted to like the show, as I really wanted to learn how to cook more healthy food, but I just find myself rolling my eyes whenever she talks. She takes all the fun out of healthy cooking. I don't want to be lectured at if I dare to use refined flour to make pasta.

    I love the show. I have health issues which I believe, are in part due to poor diet so for me Janellas recipes look fantastic and inspire me to get cooking. The banter between the two doesn't bother me in the slightest but I guess Janella, in my case, is preaching to the converted! I wonder if there's a book in the offing?? Anyway full marks for a fantastic programme ...Oh and Gary's stuff is quite appealing too!!

    hello Janella,

    I have to say this is the best cookery show on television! I can relate to it very much as I am lactose intolerant and therefore don't have dairy and choose not to eat meat too frequently so your food options are inspiring to watch as most other chefs use alot of butter, milk and meat in their cooking. Does anybody know where I can find the chickpea salad recipe, I have looked everywhere? Thanks.

    Hi Janella. my husband and I watch Good Cook, Bad Cook every day without fail and I love your recipes. The only problem is that living in Greece I can't source all the ingredients - the diet here is not as healthy as you might think! Thank you for your inspiration though, we'll keep watching ...

    Hello Janella, I live in Scotland and love watching your recipes on Good Chef/Bad Chef. I think you should come over to the United Kingdom and show our Chefs a thing or two. We have a programme called Saturday Kitchen which is prime t.v. to watch here and I think you should appear on this show and get the public to be more aware of healthy balanced eating. Chefs on this programme display their dazzling culinary skills but I think your style would make people definitely sit up and take notice. Let me know if this comes about for you. Regards, Hilary

    Hi Janella, I agree with Hilary. I live in England and find some whole food ingredients had to find. Also - not many people know about whole foods here. Being from Australia - and knowing how easy to find these alternatives, it's so fustrating! So if you get a chance to come over, please do!

    Hi Janella, I have seen a couple of your recipes with Umeboshi vinegar as an ingredient. I have tried quite a few shops in Melbourne but can't seem to find it. Do you know where I can find it? Thank you.
