Veganism

Go back and read it,it's past my bedtime
I took my family and to the Fairfield arms on Ashton old Road yesterday for Sunday lunch, and as I was looking through the menu I noticed a vegetarian/vegan menu. I must say with the smell of roast meats wafting out of the kitchen, made the veggie and vegan dishes seem about as exciting as a wet Wednesday in Widnes. Ok, Some of the veggie options seem edible if push comes shove, but I'd rather be pushed off Beachy head by bucking billy goat looking at the vegan options available.

Any of you get excited by this menu?

Your question was a non question,why would meat eaters be excited by a veggie menu or the other way around
Non question twat

What question?

I took my family and to the Fairfield arms on Ashton old Road yesterday for Sunday lunch, and as I was looking through the menu I noticed a vegetarian/vegan menu. I must say with the smell of roast meats wafting out of the kitchen, made the veggie and vegan dishes seem about as exciting as a wet Wednesday in Widnes.

Any of you get excited by this menu?

Non reading twat

Senile or non reading, which is it?
 
Any veggie/vegan out there are you implore you to go to the old original Inn, Lydgate Oldham and and try their famous 8 hours cooked lamb henry, it's fantastic flavoursome local lamb.

No? Well fuck off back to eating deep fried tempura tulipheads then ya miserable bastards.
Cun... ;)
I could report report you there Kaz for slander, I'm a twat actually not a ****.
You take it really well....Well ya would if given half a chance ; ) Night sweet dreams x
 
I was grafting yesterday and accidentally walked into a green/caring/environmental friendly/typo cafe. I didn't realize until I looked at the menu but the clue was in the brightly clothed clientele.Live and let live so I ordered a coffee with some curdled liquid served in a miniature glass milk barrel that had a sort of clotty effectual pour to it.I also had a Vegan cookie because it represented good value to the pound and also I was proper hank marvin.Well the inhabitants knew they had an outsider in their presence and I could feel their eyes upon on me as I lifted cookie to mouth.I cannot describe the taste except to say it had character all of it's own with the biscuit goodness and yum factor extracted at point of sale and all that remained was an oatie fragile base that tormented the palate.Anyway I had no choice but to swallow down hardand crack on with the remaining quarter.When you mess with a product it can never take on the ideals of the original but if cookies tasted like this in the real world then It would be far easier for me to take on the persona off a 10 stone rippling stud-muffin.

I watched the video of Nimmers a few pages back and harrowing footage for sure.We have a responsibility to our live stock to rear meat in a healthy happy environment and come slaughter time kill it in the most humane manner possible by stunning..Sky fairy slaughter methods and barbaric bleed out should have no play whatsoever in our abattoirs.Literally thousands of undercover investigations have revealed the same horrific abuse and suffering all over the world.The animals should be stunned first before any ritual process is carried out and quotes from the rspca thankfully mention over 80 % are. The co2 gassing of pigs is also pretty disturbing to watch causing immense suffering to these inteligent creatures because these highly social animals become easily distressed in an unfamiliar places. The group gassing with CO2 is frequently touted as the best way to slaughter but clearly with undercover footage available this is not the case. I do enjoy the taste of meat and only have a desire to see all live stock bred with good animal husbindry at it's forefront.Its not too much to ask is it ?
