They have a historical bad reputation over baby milk in developing countries too. This isn’t a black and white issue.
They're a huge multi-national corporation. Of course they do naughty things. I expect they do naughty things here too.
But maybe some good as well, that's all I'm trying to say. :)

Unfortunately there was a field fire on the Isle of Sheppey yesterday (where we went birdwatching) We can’t see it this morning, so hopefully it is out. This is what we could see yesterday

Our children are joining us today which we are really looking forward to :) Have a great weekend all.
What a lovely sunset. :<3:
Shame about the fire, though.
Looks very relaxing otherwise. :)

The bacon is at the back between the mushrooms and the tomatoes.

We call blood sausage “Black Pudding” ... and I love it.

Some butchers don’t make it as a sausage. It’s made as a slab in a tray and you cut slices from it. There’s a particularly good but her in Masham (pronounced Massum) in North Yorkshire that does this. Masham is home to Theakston’s brewery - particularly good beers too, the most famous of which is a stout called Old Peculier
Mmmmm!
Old Peculier! :<3:
And I love black pudding, I get it from the Scottish butcher in Spain. :)
Like white pudding too, but he doesn't do that. :(

I have read that it's not actually banned, just not as popular anymore. :rolleyes:

I can certainly believe that. Ferrets naturally love to tunnel and mine are no different.. sometimes they will catch me not paying attention in the morning and try to use my pajama pants as as a play area... it’s NOT GOOD! They love it if I throw my kids pants on the floor for them:)

It’s the abomination of chicken sausage that needs to be banned! If you can’t make sausage out of pork then don’t bother!

EDIT
Actually that’s not strictly true - other meats are fine in sausage ... and even quorn... but chicken is a complete waste of time!
Agreed.
I do like some lamb and beef sausages too, and here the majority of sausages are turkey.
If you go to the right butcher's, some of them are pretty good. :)

It is good that you are so satisfied living in Morocco.:)
Groceries are cheap ? Lettuce too ? Most things are imported from Spain I think ?
No, I don't know about the supermarkets, but the medina produce I buy is all locally grown.
A big lettuce is 2 Dirhams or about 18 cents of your Euro thingies.
Potatoes 37 cents a kilo.
Bread, 10 cents a loaf.
Etc.

Hopefully there will be no change and in a few years plastik bottles come to Morocco too. It is horrible waste.:(
Sadly, the plastic bottles are already here and rapidly replacing the glass ones. I think in a couple of years it will all be plastic. :(
One step forward, two steps back. But I only buy the glass ones at the moment.
