You'll have to get your meat from Cheese-O-Mart or whatever they have over there. Might be cheaper and more morally sound just to walk straight into a field and cut the meat directly off the living animals yourself.

Someone's wishing their daughter was a Subsistence Farmer after all.
I might have to learn to butcher cows and take the place over myself.
It was good business too. I guess following from the UK thread, why are there no young people willing to take that shit over?
EDIT: The local Cheese-o-Mart is called Sheetz.

Why get your hands dirty when you can chance going on reality tv and being a professional instagrammer instead?I might have to learn to butcher cows and take the place over myself.

I haven't been in a butchers in ages but I have fond memories of the smell.
As a butcher's son I can tell you: Turns out you have to be really good with knives.
That sounds so sinister that I'm not sure if you're praising a difficult skill or outing your dad as the Tyneside Torturer.
Possibly both?
People won’t spend the little bit extra to use a butchers any more. It’s easier to buy something full of water in a packet.
So our youths should be well into it.
Most people don't think there's a difference. I was one of them until we lived round the corner from one.
This country's attitude towards food is just appalling. I'd love to see statistics for the percentage of people in each country who eat a 'beige diet'. We'll be the kings by far.
Lewis is the King of Beigetown.
I haven't bought supermarket meat (except for slow cooker stuff) since I started working.
Vegan revolution.
I don’t think anyone is talking about giving up personal hygiene just because they’re not going to the butchers.
I got some meat pack thing from a local butcher that delivered back in the early days of the pandemic when you couldn't get a supermarket delivery for about a month. I didn't notice much difference and I'm not gonna go out of my way to go to a butcher's shop when I go to Tesco on a roughly weekly basis anyway.
What James said
It's telling that Team Vegan is exclusively made up of people under 5' 7".
Is James not quite lanky?
I must bring the average up to 5'10".
I would like to change my insult. Please can you all post mugshots so I can pick a different characteristic to go after?
They've already told you they're vegan, what more ammunition do you need?
I also probably double the average weight but I can't think of anything that links James, Taz, Boydy and me tbh.
Being cool dudes.
I'm not vegan though.
I absolutely got the difference when my dad brought stock home. Not all of it was good, mind. Potato and Leek sausages? Never again.
Why do you have to look 25 to buy a can of red bull? Some Spoonsky lookalike just attempted to ruin my Tesco Meal Deal until some other worker recognised me and put it through.
Caffeine is banned for under 16s or 18s or something isn't it? So it'll just be the same challenge 25 policy as alcohol where they're setting it as that for a bit of cushion.
Do you not usually have ID on you?
Without Boydy the link is being intermittent wreckheads.
Not vegan also, just a relentless don. It's a very strong quartet if we can snap Boydy out of the gender dysphoria.
I thought it was just banned to sell to school kids on their lunch hour or something. I go there to buy fags and never get ID’d so never bother taking my wallet since Apple Pay works everywhere these days
Hm, yeah it's weird that they'd ID you for one but not the other.
Were you looking spectacularly youthful today?
He went with his future wife and they thought that she was his mother.
Nah, the person doing it was about 17 and they’re always the jobsworth bastards
To be fair I think it's just young people have no fucking idea how old anybody older than them is. Everybody just looks like Older People.
I'm a twit
I got ID'd in Waitrose buying a 175ml bottle of wine in amongst a £70 shop the other day [and didn't have it on me]. I'm clearly not under 25 ffs.
I got ID'd last year, just laughed and she didn't bother asking again. ID'd at 40. I think I'll take that to my grave.
They send people in who are 18-19 to try and buy age-restricted stuff and if the employees don't challenge them both the shop and the individual can get into shit. That's why the employees are strict about it.

I definitely have been IDed more with a mask on so clearly it's the bridge of my nose and below which is letting me down.
Based on the photo on my phone, I presume you mean it isn't intermittent for Boydy?
I got ID'd buying scissors aged 30.
Same thing happened to me a few weeks ago, after I'd just gone past the milestone. The same approach worked. I assumed she was winding me up, but then on reflection wasn't so sure.
If the meat you get from the butcher is about the same as the one from the supermarket, you need a better butcher.
A true wreckhead would never pass out like that.
Touche
Yep. the quality difference when going to a proper butcher is incredibly wide.
When I lived in Birmingham the local Butcher had a big sign up saying "not suitable for home freezing. All meat has been frozen previously".
I imagine that sort of butchers isn't going to offer any kind of upgrade on the vacuum packed shit in Tesco.
Our local Butchers does it properly though. Seeing whole pigs and giant cow parts arriving is a reassuringly grim sight.
