    Hi Hannah,
    I do hope that you read this!
    As a regular reader of Taste i have for a while wanted to write to someone there and now, with the lockdown situation, even more so….Yesterday i left a message for Abigail on your Facebook page but i never know who administers these groups so happy that today i found another way of writing to someone at Taste.
    I am considered elderly (!), live alone and love cooking and would dearly like to see more articles or adaptations on dishes, for cooking for one. It’s really no fun to either waste perfectly good food because i simply can’t eat it all… or to face the same dish for two or three days running.
    Woolworths have started a range of smaller packs which i welcome and urge them to expand.
    but please give consideration to those of us who would love to cook and experiment but, especially now, can’t share our food.
    best wishes to you all and thanks for the inspiration.
