Re: Big changes ahead ??
Strangely enough, I was ordering meats from a supermarket today & noticed that the weight of a portion had been reduced in anything prepacked. Of course they don't sell 500 grams of meat on delivered food... so they are already starting to reduce the amount we eat. Covid has also helped by getting more people to shop online!
There are less butcher shops now & eventually they will not be able to compete with lower supermarket prices, so asking for a specific quantity of meat will be come more difficult!
It wont be just the eaters of these products that will suffer, It will be farmers, fishermen, the people who sell those products & I suspect many children whose parents were brought up eating meat & fish, so have little idea on how to cook vegetarian food! Getting the right nutrition from veg involves a lot of knowledge in how to get the right minerals , vitamins & getting children to eat them is difficult.
One thing that worries me, is that animals have been eating grass since they appeared & their poo fertilized the ground. If we need to grow more veg, the land they grazed on will still be needed to grow the veg. That means we will have to use chemical fertilizer on most... because we will all be eating the veg we grow.!
