[Food] No Deal Recipe Suggestions

[Dick Swiveller]

There seems to be a craze on Youtube of trying Military rations from various countries. Thought I would stock up until I saw the price!

UK grown strawberries, February to November...

Yes, you can grow any number of crops out of season by using a heated and lit glasshouse. Unfortunately there is a commensurate increase in price thanks to the costs of this heating and lighting. This type of growing comes in to its own at the start of a season when a grower who can produce the first British strawberries of the year can command a good price that covers his costs and some. So, we can be more self sufficient but at a price that many of us won't pay.

Now this is an interesting post: the uk is far better prepared than before WW1 or WW2 when we produced less than 40% of the food consumed

The U.K. Is apparently 85% self sufficient in food production this excludes anything we cannot grow or produce such as Bananas or Tuna
79% of the food and drink we import comes from the EU
11% is from countries granted Most Favoured Nation status, such as the USA, China, Brazil and Australia.
9% comes from bilateral agreements with countries such as Canada, Norway and Chile.
1% from Generalised Scheme of Preferences (lower than WTO tariffs), such as India, Ukraine and Iran.

Assuming the worst a hard Brexit the UK would be completly self sufficient in some produce such as carrots and eggs but not in all such as pork or beef so some shortages are likley and some cost increases inevitable.

Protein from Animals will be more expensive as it takes on average for beef for example 3 years from conception to plate as such we will have a shortfall for some years, so more vegetable based meals are likley and they will include more UK products such as potatoes, carrots, barley, turnips, swede, beetroot, onions so looking at recipes from Soviet Russia or post war Britain might be worth while

So Brexit could actually reduce obesity, and in turn, save the NHS billions in the process.

This looks more like it

How about some cheap New Zealand or Oz fillet steak, which they had to find new markets for after we shit on them and joined the Common Market? Or most other foods that are cheaper in non-EU countries? There seems to be a lot of ignorance about how expensive our food has become due to the EU and their Common Agricultural Policy.

Indeed.

Red peppers grown all year round, in the UK

Read the small print, " grown in the UK and Spain " now, very slowly have a little think about those two countries and their climate and then go over to your window.

Yes it's no coincidence that the healthiest generation is that which was bourn during rationing and as the NHS is the second biggest spend placed upon the tax payers it may help the NHS budgets

The big problem is the year round demand for produce that frankly, does not grow all year ! Unfortunately we are bombarded with cookery shows using all manner of ingredients that often have a short harvest or don't grow at all over the short winter days. Bye bye those fresh Raspberries, the Asparagus, the Avacado's , Sweetcorn, Tomatoes, Peppers, Courgettes Broccolli, etc etc.....

Yes UK products such as potatoes, carrots, barley, turnips, swede, beetroot, onions will be fairly cheap and plentiful, just so long as we don't suffer droughts or heatwaves or unseasonal cold snaps, but, what a life that sounds ? Chicken and Vegetable soup 5 days a week ?

As always for those who can afford it will still be able to purchase what ever they want but it's fair to assume that the years of year round cheap availability of all sorts of products would be over (this is assuming a hard Brexit)

Hallelujah !

The first time in 2 1/2 years that a real benefit of Brexit has been identified


Blue passports and new 50p coins don't really cut it.

Yes, just refer to it as "meat" but don't ask any questions.
