It's St George's Day on Tuesday, and I've just called our clever food consultant, Emma Marsden, to ask her the name the five best English food products that might make a difference to our lives! So here, in no particular order, are five English food gems...

Colston Bassett Stilton
EMMA'S SAYS: 'It's really creamy. I had it all through my chidhood and it's fabulous on toast.'

English Provender Co Horseradish
EMMA'S SAYS: 'This is so nice - and you can't have roast beef without it!'

Nye Timber wine
EMMA'S SAYS: 'A classic sparkling wine that's as good as French champagne!'

Denhay Farm Bacon
EMMA'S SAYS: 'Dry cured, with no water added, all the flavour stays in when you cook this bacon, and it crisps up really nicely.'

Badger Beer
EMMA'S SAYS: 'These come in such lovely flavours. I adore the peach. It's perfect for summer.'
