The story of the 2013 Carnival Triumph cruise, which descended into chaos after the toilets gave up in the middle of the sea, has been turned into a wild Netflix documentaryElevator pitches don’t get much more captivating, and possibly revolting, than “poop cruise” – a modern day Gilligan’s Island tale that’s almost too good to be true.For those who may have missed the headlines in 2013: a two-day transit from Galveston, Texas, to Cozumel, Mexico turned disastrous when an engine room fire struck the Carnival Triumph and stranded its 4,100-odd passengers and crew in the Gulf of Mexico. The fire devastated the Triumph’s electrical nerve center and crippled the auxiliary systems aboard the ship, from the wifi to the toilets – which literally backed up into cabins and spilled into the hallways. After three days adrift, the Triumph was towed to Mobile, Alabama – but not before the limits of socially conditioned behavior approached a breaking point. Continue reading...

There’s so much more to mango chutney than a relish for curry or a dip for pappadoms. Use up that jar in an upgraded chicken schnitzel or Balinese crispy pork rollsA cleverly curated pantry is a home cook’s best friend, and holds within it the power to take your daily meals in countless different directions at the mere twist of a lid. The simple truth is that all you really need to create flavourful food at home is a capsule of flavourful pantry ingredients. This, for me, includes everyday staples such as toasted sesame oil, dark maple syrup and peanut butter, and bold taste-boosters such as tamarind, pecorino romano and gochujang. Another ingredient I turn to repeatedly is mango chutney, a beloved staple at the Punjabi table of my childhood upbringing in Leicester. Today, I use it in infinite different ways to enliven whatever I happen to be cooking, leaning into its characteristics as a sticky and vinegary, bustlingly tropical, flamboyantly spiced, sweet and mellow flavour hero.
