Food Unwrapped reveals the secrets of China's food. In China, Jimmy Doherty and Matt Tebbutt sample extraordinary and exotic dishes, meet the skilled workers working in small cooperatives, and witness a blend of ancient farming techniques and commercial production on an unparalleled scale. Jimmy visits the incredible remote village of Juehui, in the Sichuan province, where all the residents work together to make noodles the traditional way, by hanging them out to dry on their rooftops, creating views that have to be seen to be believed. Matt visits China's largest meat processing base, where 20,000 people work, and explores how China has become the world's biggest producer of garlic. He sees the life-changing effect this humble crop has had on rural communities and discovers a turbo-charged variety that packs a punch.
