Week One Round Up

What a week of sport it had been! Andy Murray got knocked out of Queen's, Martin Kaymer won the US Open and Michael Schumacher has come out of his coma.  There was also the small matter of the World Cup.

All 32 of the teams have now played once, with varying levels of success.  There have been shocks; who thought Costa Rica would beat Uruguay?  There have been contentious issues; that never should have been a penalty for Brazil against Croatia.  We have seen what could be the goal of the tournament, if not of the year; Robin Van Persie take a bow.

But while all of this sport has been taking place the more important matter of the World Cup Food Challenge has kicked off in earnest.  So far dishes from Columbia, France, Germany, Greece, Ghana, Honduras, Iran, Japan, USA, and Uruguay have been cooked, eaten, and written about.

There is still plenty more to play for and to eat.  We still have the food of 22 countries to be examined before the group stage is out.  By the time of the next update we may have already lost some teams, or know which countries to expect additional recipes from.  You can follow the action as it happens, here or on Twitter on the hashtag #wcfc2014.
