Plant Based Alternatives

[stevebrooks]

Mt Isa is isolated and all food has been stripped out of local supermarkets, including pet food, except for one type of item, apparently plant based alternatives aren't in big demand.



It does occur to me that since all the vegetable and fruit have also been stripped bare it would be far better to leave these as actual fruit and vegetables rather than turning them into pretend meat, that way people might actually buy them. Vegetarian sausages, for instance, have always been a conundrum to me, you're a vegetarian, eat vegetables, why are you pretending to eat sausages?

Oh well!

There are really no vegetables in most of that junk. It's factory produced and mostly soy derived plus salt, sugar and lots of numbers.
