Meanwhile, UK beef is why I can’t donate blood.
I think the UK is worried about where they will get their mislabeled horse meat from

This brouhaha from the nation where Mad Cow disease got its start?
Hershey’s is crime against chocolate.
They've also had a big problem with badgers transmitting TB to their cow population.
“Mumbo Jumbo’’? Is that the same as ‘’malarkey’’? What’s the dope here? They’re all screwy I tell ya! A couple of real 8 balls.
And Walmart. Brits in America are obsessed with Walmart. They think it’s Shangri-La or something. And free drink refills. They’re over the moon about that too.
Same here! Can’t donate.
I rest my case.
Maybe at Walmart they can get their Ribena and Jammie Dodgers at a cheaper price than regular supermarkets. Happy New Year if I haven’t wished it to you already!
Sorry, but you clearly know nothing about contemporary food culture in the UK. Yes, you can still eat badly here -as you can anywhere: but equally you can now eat as well here as anywhere - and I’m not talking just about being able to find good food from other cultures. The best food in Britain, like the best food in the U.S., is a fusion of influences from many sources: not least the rediscovery and revival of the historic traditions of English, Scots and Welsh cookery which had become lost in mass-market debasement during the 20th century.
The issue is that European farmers don’t want to compete with U.S. agriculture. The euros whip up hysteria about nonsensical issues to stoke fear and justify non-tariff trade barriers to keep U.S. food products out. One simple solution would be for the U.S. and Europe (and Japan and other sophisticated countries) to recognize that all the advanced countries have quite elaborate food safety regimes, and to grant complete reciprocity. If you can sell something legally in the U.S., you should be able to sell it in Europe and vice versa. Let consumers buy what they want at the store. If we did that, most European farmers would be out of business in about a week.
I watch a lot of YouTube videos featuring big farming.
It is easy to see that European farmers can’t possibly compete against the American Farmer.
I’m not blaming the European farmer, but they are so saddled with what appears to be nonsensical practices that I think are forced upon them that they just aren’t very productive.
Thank you dear.
Wow! And only 803 kiloJoules!
Sorry but I do...I went there on business.
London actually does have some good restaurants. It’s just that none of them serve British food.
