[QUOTE="Princess Pooper, post: 6096182, member: 971"] If people really care about where their food comes from they either shop at a proper butcher or a farm shop, where they are only too happy to promote the fact that it is meat from X farm 2 miles way (they should be able to prove the tag number for beef) or at a farm shop often it is their own or another local supplier they work closely with. They don't actually need a labelling scheme because they talk to their customers. I know of plenty of people in cities who will take a trip out to stock the freezer from a good butcher (just mention Joseph Morris in Leics....:happy: ) or nowadays they have the option of delivery to the door (we used to courier our fresh beef and lamb throughout the UK including to Wales and Scotland!). Labelling schemes work OK for the mass market, at least they can pay their money and take their choice even if they can't ask questions. [/QUOTE]
