I dont eat meat but it certainly made my other half think about the chicken he eats - but at the end of the day - a family on low income is always going to buy the £2.80 chicken rather than the more expensive option.

 

I made myself watch the pig slaughter - I was shocked at the speed of the killing - makes you wonder how many they get through a day to be that efficient and skilled about it!

 

I also kept my eyes open for any elderberry flowers this morning when out running!

the pig slaughtering was much less distressing than I expected.

i absuloutley love hugh but there is some things so wrong with the

way were told to eat healthy look after ourselves

then ther supplying us with second rate produce at premiun price

 

we holiday in italy every year and OMG everything on your door step ie organic and free range

if you want a goat,chicken etc.. you order at night and they kill fresh in morning

not everyone will appriciate this but animals have a graet free range life how we all lived long time ago

 

oh the tomatoes are all funny shapes & colours but taste amazing

That's because countries like France and Italy help pass the EU rules on conformity of fruit and veg and then proceed to ignore them

The UK of course enforce them and we end up with straight cucumbers and bananas and apples which all look the same.

 

This is about to be dropped shortly - because it is causing so much food waste.......
