Michael 'Doc' Weldon | Food for Thought podcast Episode 12
Michael ‘Doc’ Weldon is a food celebrity originally from South Australia. First appearing on the Masterchef series in 2011, Michael is now a regular food host on the long-running, household renowned ‘Sunrise’ morning TV show. Doc also hosts his own network TV-show, ‘Farm to Fork’ amongst many other strings to his talented bow.
Doc’s passion for food has taken him all across the globe - to the likes of India, South-East Asia and the UK - and we were lucky enough to have him in our very own 'me&u-HQ' Collingwood nest for a bit of roast, if you will.
We were delighted to be able to pick Michael's brain about his early life, work in television, the Masterchef experience and 'that time' he tore his bicep playing a basic forward-defensive cricket stroke. We hear about Doc's favourite places to dine out, where he sees food trends heading in 2024, Aus Hospo T-shirt Day and ALL while he walks us through some cheeky little snack ideas, too!
We’ve got the ingredients that’ll help your business grow.
