Kate Quilton is seen retching after eating 50-year-old kangaroo tail soup on her programme Food Unwrapped.
The celebrity, 39, who has presented the consumer show about food production for more than 10 years, was doing a segment on how to keep canned food fresh when she was asked to try the tinned soup.
In the episode, broadcast on Friday, she visited microbiologist Dr Patrick Hickey at his mother Frances’ house in Edinburgh.
They looked at some old cans belonging to Frances, including a tin of 40-year-old potatoes, tinned hamburgers, and a can of kangaroo tail soup brought back from Australia in the early 1970s.
Following Dr Hickey finding a similar batch of the soup was safe to eat, he asked Quilton: “Would you like to try a taste? It would be rude not to.”
