"We must remember though that we (a generic "we") give the supermarkets their money.
We, as consumers, (very demanding 60million odd of us) have brought about this industrial scale food production.
We are demanding more and more food, all the time, 24 hours a day. We don't just ask for it now. WE EXPECT IT!"
That's well put, Doug, but do we expect it because we're offered it? People only started buying strawberries in December because they appeared on the shelves. As you and Gill say, it's a complex sitation and one in which all of us have a role to play. |
