Vegetarians are cool mostly, but vegans... often are a different species.

You're all a bunch of dinosaurs (velociraptors obviously), vegetarianism/veganism is on the increase and remarkably so. Even Iceland is in on the act. ICELAND ffs, 'where mums go'....( to buy unhealthy crap for their kids)

Britain’s grocers are going vegan in an attempt to keep up with their customers’ increasingly health-conscious food choices.

Waitrose this week launched dedicated vegan sections in more than 130 stores after increasing its vegan and vegetarian product range by 60%. Iceland is also rapidly expanding its vegan range after its meat-free No Bull burgers outsold their wagyu beef counterparts so far this year, while sales of its vegetable-based food have risen by 10% over the past 12 months.

Being a bit of an old cynic I wonder if this is the latest fad and the stores don't want to miss out so will stock this type of food and see how it sells.

Hog roasts are dreadful.

Oh how I have to disagree with that one!

In France, friends had hog roasts for their son's wedding and for a 65th birthday party and they were both delicious!

After bleeding, gutting, shaving and singeing the pig the Roaster went over the whole of it at about 5cm intervals with a knife and inserted a clove of garlic or a twig of thyme into the flesh before roasting it over an open fire.

It took about 4 hours to cook, which was just perfect for the main course; and it was a perfect bit of pork! :thumb:

BTW prior to the wedding I went with the father to get the wine for the party. After tasting and selecting the red wine he ordered 120 litres of it. After tasting and selecting the white wine he ordered 85 litres of it. As we moved on to tasting and selecting the rosé wine the man in the wine shop asked "Having a party?" The mind boggles!

I still wonder how many people he has coming into his shop and ordering over 200 litres of wine as an ordinary event for their family's consumption!

This was the first time that I also ran into the French version of a Punch. Of course I knew what a Punch was, it was a mixture of wine, spirits and fruit that was made up in a large bowl, carried to the table and served in small cups using a ladle.

WRONG! It was a mixture of wine, spirits and fruit that was mixed up in "Granma's Crock Pot" (roughly the size of an Ali Baba laundry basket) that was wheeled round on a B&Q type trolley (the one normally used for taking bags of cement out to the van) and served up using a half-litre dipper in 250ml wine glasses!!

Happy Days!

Hi!
They changed to name of our local psychiatric care facility from the County Asylum to the Mental Health Unit.
That's madness gone politically correct.

I enjoyed reading this post. Over 200 litres of wine in one sitting is some going! I wonder how many guests attended...

The hog roasts you described do sound better than my experiences. I've had it twice, both times as the supper at weddings. Both times it was the same: overcooked, dry and underseasoned. They promise a great deal but in my experiences deliver little.

I don't do PC ...the PC lot are a right bunch of Nazis.....because if you don't do or like what they do you're wrong.
Not kidding got a PC nazi works with me who is that bad you can't even say coal is black!
Yeah why do they have veggie food in the shape and description of meat? What next bananas that look like a 16oz rump steak?
Closet carnivores...

If you wanna wind up make them watch some Pat Condell on youtube. I wont post a link here but he is the epitome of non PC.

But would it be any good for brewing and would it be ethical?
