Despite numerous campaigns from top chefs and celebrity nutritionists, many of us are still greedily gorging on a heart-attack in a sandwich that contains more salt than the Pacific Ocean as soon as the clock strikes lunchtime.

And what is worse is that the sound of millions of British workers everywhere choosing a life of gluttony can be described in one sound: the rhythmic ripping of cellophane as they unwrap that all day breakfast sarnie.

Instead of trying to shyly hide their shame as they noisily – and albeit, publicly - chomp through that foot-long subway like a pig at a trough, they declare it as proudly as if they’ve just won the lottery.

Through stifled burps and the occasional snort they hurriedly munch their way through lunch; spraying crumbs all over their desk and into the crevices of their phone receiver much to the disgust of onlookers.

The result of the British worker's feeding frenzy is quite a masterpiece too: a ketchup-stained shirt, soggy lettuce coated in full-fat mayonnaise stuck to their trouser crotch and thousands of microbes of bacteria multiplying between their computer keys. <

Because let’s face it, if I did, I’d develop a Hitler-mentality every time I used the toaster. After all, burnt toast is apparently as cancer-inducing as 400 unfiltered cigarettes a day.

But the idea that the contents of my fridge can help save the planet is enough to deter even my carnivorous senses from that 8oz sirloin with a looming use by date sat on the shelf.

*** CLICK HERE TO DO THE GREEN THING ***

Environmentally-friendly website www.dothegreenthing.com has not only turned me green, but has managed to do so without telling me what I can and cannot shove in my cake-hole.

Because instead of those tedious Government health warnings that forbid me to ever look at another bacon sandwich again, Do the Green Thing appeals to my better nature – eat less bacon and save the world.

Apparently peanut butter induces cancer, avocados contain too much fat and just one egg contains 2/3 of your recommended cholesterol intake. Oh and carrot juice has been linked to botulism.

So if everything on the supermarkets shelves carries a health warning I’m being to wonder: Dare we indulge?

The Government may have a life of culinary boredom in store for us all but I have no intention of letting the Labour Government in my kitchen. And neither should you. So I have found a way you can have your cake, and eat it too.

Website Heavenly Cakes has created a range of delicious cakes that will not only satisfy your sweet tooth but those pesky health warnings too. They contain no nasty artificial products, and quite unbelievably, no eggs, dairy, wheat, soya, GM-ingredients or nuts.

But if I’m going to spend an evening in the kitchen, I need to be creating something a little more exciting than the boring old lemon and sugar combination.

Luckily, this year, supermarkets have realised that most of us are bored senseless at the prospect of Pancake Day and so have come up with some unique recipes to get us into the pancake-flipping sprit.

Morrisons have created a range of weird and wonderful pancake creations for you to try – the best being the savoury varieties. Check out the spicy prawn and spinach and feta recipes – but maybe leave out the toss – it could get messy.

The crusading chef – you can’t turn on the box these days without being confronted by one – used some serious shock tactics in his ‘Eat to Save Your Life’ to get the great British public to understand that a pasty a day, won’t keep the doctor away.

In fact, it will simply kill you.

For an hour and 40 minutes Jamie seemed to be jumping between three programmes rolled into one in a studio that resembled a crime scene, Jamie’s own kitchen and a scientist’s lab – a lethal combination it would seem.

With the help of 18 members of the unassuming public, Jamie subjected his stooges to gruelling nutrition checks and asked them to expose their worst eating habits; one girl admitted “I can drink coke and pepsi by the gallon,” while another grinned into the TV and said “I love a sausage roll.”

No exploitation there then.
