Season 22 - Episode 20 - Aired 9/29/2022

In the past, supermarkets barely cared about the state of the world. The environment hardly bothered them. The farmer was given the money. Not to mention animal suffering. But fortunately that misery is finally behind us. The country's largest wholesaler is making a big deal with a historic turnaround. 'Better for', Albert Heijn now puts on countless products. From vegetables and fruit, to pork, cow and chicken. With 'Better for', the supermarket promises improvement for just about everything and everyone. But better than what? And why not just the best for it?

Season 22 - Episode 27 - Aired 11/17/2022

Even pale meat products cannot escape the fad. Suddenly many pre-packed slices of chicken, ham and bacon have been put in trendy brown jackets. Fresh off the grill, it says on one.

And do any of those methods even come into play with these meat products? Inspection Service Van Waarde about how meat products reach their limits.

Season 22 - Episode 22 - Aired 10/13/2022

Man just makes a mess of it. And so we scrub and scrub ourselves silly every day. From small loads to large loads, the dishes to the toilet bowl. And the wonderful thing is that it can now all be done with a radiantly clean conscience. Because the shelves are full of them: cleaning products that claim to be ecological. Green and supposedly inspired by nature. But how ecological are all those ecological resources actually? The Inspection Service of Value about how green cleaning products are playing tricks on us.

#17 - Laurel

Season 22 - Episode 30 - Aired 12/15/2022

Soups, sauces and stews: they only deserve a wreath as soon as laurel is added. Warm and woody, that's how chefs describe the taste. But it may cost something. Sometimes even eight hundred euros per kilo. You can buy whole bay plants for next to nothing. Reap your riches. The Inspection Service wants to know how it is possible that bay leaf in a bag is very expensive. Could it be because some bags say that the leaves have been selected by hand? A tasty story about golden hands in laurel picking.

#18 - Natural wine

Season 22 - Episode 28 - Aired 11/24/2022

Wine was once a simple grape drink. Then people started making things complicated. And now there is something new again: wine as the simplest drink it once was. Natural wine is on nice labels. Tough sommeliers swear by it. Stubborn liquor stores cannot get hold of the bottles. Because natural wine would be pure wine. With as little human interference as possible. Wine, straight from nature. But when is wine natural and when is it not? The value inspection service takes a dip in natural grape juice and comes home with a hangover.

Season 22 - Episode 18 - Aired 9/9/2022

We were finally allowed to go on holiday again, but the Inspection Service almost stayed home. Because a long-distance pleasure trip may be fun, but it would do the world little good. The earth is becoming too hot, the environment is under heavy strain and the paths are being trampled. Fortunately, holiday sellers have found a solution: sustainable holidays. Without and with airplane. From safaris in Africa to all-inclusives in Turkey. Not only far, but also fair. But how do they actually do that: make your holiday eco?

#23 - Pandan

Season 22 - Episode 17 - Aired 9/2/2022

If you cook Thai, you grab a pack of pandan from the shelf. Particularly fragrant rice from South-East Asia. More expensive than regular white rice, because pandan tastes like pandan plants. Still, the question arises: what exactly is pandan rice? Because in addition to pandan, all the packages also mention jasmine. A name that appears to be more popular at the store. We travel to Thailand for pandan rice and are disappointed.

#25 - Rookworst

Season 22 - Episode 25 - Aired 11/3/2022

As soon as the weather is dark, cold and chilly, he is always brought out of the stable: Rookworst. The 'just act normal, then you're acting crazy enough' incarnate. Dead simple and quintessentially Dutch. But now the incarnate is also starting to become complicated. In addition to vacuum-packed, fresh products are also available in supermarkets. Cold from the refrigerator, sometimes even without a bag. The Value Inspection Service wants to know what they actually mean by fresh. Because rookworst is smoked, so it is no longer fresh?
