"Launched in 2005, Home-Dzine was created to realise a dream; to express my love of home DIY and decor and share with other South Africans. As a non-commercial website I am free to express my own opinions and pass on valuable information to readers.
I feel that more people can benefit by being able to DIY home improvement and home repairs. And we're not talking about major DIY home repairs, but those that anyone with a bit of DIY savvy can do themselves."
Do you know what goes into a hamburger?
You have to love Jamie Oliver. In 2011 Jamie launched a campaign on his US foor show , "Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution" to highlight what manufacturers are legally allowed to put into prepared foods such as minced beef, hamburger patties, viennas and such.

You will be shocked and may very well be disgusted by what Jamie Oliver has to show you.
