I am very happy that Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall is now doing a vegetarian cooking show. I had to stop watching his television specials because he raised his own animals, named them, cared for them — and then killed them and ate them during the course of his River Cottage TV specials. It was too traumatizing for me.
I watched his new vegetarian program last night while still suffering from indigestion from a magnificent dinner of pork crackling eaten the night before. I have promised to eat less meat and more vegetables and to make a real effort in procuring the 16 ingredients that it usually takes to make a very delicious vegetarian meal. Unless it’s macaroni and cheese. That doesn’t take 16 ingredients and it’s delicious every time.
Macaroni and cheese is my favorite veggie dish too!
With you on the need to cut back on meat. I eat very little and only what I consider to be from a “clean” source.
Still great argument here about the live animal trade to other countries Shocking TV expose recently that is still reverberating.But I fear the cattlemen will win. ;-(
