To me, its a simple concept.  If I want to taste a nice bit of cow, I eat cow.

If I want to eat some tasteless shit and fart non stop for the next 12 hours, I'll eat some vegan tastes nothing like cow shite.
.......or a curry, with real meat in it  ;D
Only most of our curry houses now seem to have found a non stop supply of either really chewy mutton or tasteless chicken.  I guess with the lockdowns, sheep were not in demand, so got 2 years older and tougher :(

This reminds me of Spike Milligan and the Pakistani dalek.

Food, in general, seems to be of a much poorer quality than it used to be. I put it down to the fact that my taste buds must be getting knackered.

I do still enjoy the fish from our local chippy, though, lovely white flakes of cod.

I used to buy cod fish fingers. Now the word cod has been replaced by 'whitefish' of which 72% is pollock.

I don't want to know what the other 28% is. It may gives me nightmares. :D

I know that cod was over-fished and that other fish was/is being used as a substitute. I would prefer 100% cod fingers.

I usually buy fresh cod (without batter) and enjoy it with parsley sauce. Much more healthy. :)

I popped into Costco in Bristol earlier this evening and picked up a tray of lamb steaks which for years has cost between £11 - 13ish.

Tonight the same tray with 6 or 7 steaks cost between £20 -23 depending on weight  :o, so sadly they went back in the fridge rather than my trolley.  :(

A taste of things to come....  :-\
And I can see this government deciding to tax beef, because he lives we a silly tart who worships Greta.

Anyone noticed the number of adverts for plant based protein on the TV lately? :-\ :-\ :-X

Processed pap crap!  ::)
