I visited The Lincolnshire Show and spoke to some of the best food stalls to find out why they come to the county show.
As part of the celebrations for the Queen sitting on the throne for 60 years the shelves were full of jubilee themed products. I found out how many there were in my local shop as well as the silliest product available.
