I Could Definitely Kill One Of Those

  1. I have indeed pondered much on this topic.

    I love food.

    And I also love a lot of other activities and hence don't have enough time to dedicate to gather and/or hunt my food so that I'm calorifically and taste-budily satisfied.

    And I'm also fairly impecunious which means that if I stuck to my time-low, money-low and ethically-high standards, I'd be eating rather boring things.

    So I find that I often compromise on one of the above. Though I try my best to make sure it's not third option that gets the beating.

    I suppose we do what we can. Though we should probably do more. Both as individuals and collectively.

    Well put. We are now so deeply embedded in the process of food industrialisation that as a society I doubt there is a way back, but as individuals there's a great deal we can do.

Please feel free to leave comments. I really enjoy hearing what readers think. The rules are the same as round my dinner table:

You're welcome to disagree, life would be way too boring if we all agreed with each other and we'd never learn anything.
I like to think that we're all grown up enough to argue every last point, right down to the bone, without bearing a grudge afterwards.



Come on in the waters lovely
