This episode delves into the distinctions between green and black olives and uncovers the hidden components in beer production. Matt journeys to South Africa's Western Cape to explore one of the nation’s largest olive farms, where he learns that black olives are simply mature green olives, both requiring a year of brining to be palatable. Meanwhile, Kate visits a factory in Spain to observe the large-scale production of the black olives commonly found in pizzas and salads. Additionally, Matt visits a craft brewery near Belfast to investigate whether beer is truly only made from water, hops, barley, and wheat.
