Today's Breakfast Ruined

[Bald Rick]

Unbelievable - came in from morning milking ready for my cereal & toast to find this abortion on the side

(apologies as I screwed the box up and binned it before fetching it out for photographing)

and then the ultimate irony:

Nestle need a kicking in the nuts jumping on this bandwagon. No doubt it will be dropped like a hot potato when the current fad fades away?

 

[Patrick JE]

Saw this on Saturday in a tesco, bandwagon jumping of the highest order. Wouldn't buy on principle let alone taste.

 

[tinsheet]

Shreddies would taste great with water instead of milk!

[Werzle]

Doesnt seem to be affecting the welsh, on s4c last night they had a massive welsh meat promotion . Welsh meat brand has never looked stronger.

FFS what is wrong with bacon and a couple of eggs for breakfast

 

[Still Farming]

Contradictory with milk on side is it alledgely????

 

[Pennine Ploughing]

FFS what is wrong with bacon and a couple of eggs for breakfast

yeah and black coffee for dairy farmers

 

[Gong Farmer]

Trying to think which cereals aren't vegan. I suppose honey is a no-no. Are any breakfast cereals made with pork or mutton?

 

[Yale]

Was the cereal grown with farm yard manure from......animals.

 

[Danllan]

Just wait, if the vegan fashion goes on for just a wee bit longer, they'll be labelling fruit and veg' as vegan too, you can count on it...

 

[Ukjay]

Ah, but it doesn't say what kind of milk. Could infer Almond etc (even though I dispute it can be called milk).

The world is going mad.. .

 

[borderterribles]

I've long held a suspicion that the box would be tastier than the contents,especially when it's a box of Shreddies.
Ex-FIL used to have hot water on his Cornflakes Weirdo.

I don't know why you lot are so concerned by this vegan movement. It has always existed, they are always pale and ill looking and being a vegan costs a damned fortune as all you can really live on is factory-grown slime mould extract or somesuch. Let them carry on and (attempt to) breed themselves out of existence: life is too short.

 

[TL100]

I'm going to start selling vegan beef and vegan lamb - after all they are proudly reared on a 100% natural vegan diet all their lives.

What rattled my chains is Nestle jumping on the bandwagon being driven by a very odd agenda across certain media. Wind back two or so years and there was nary a mention of the V word. Now I cannot open the Times safely never mind switch on bbc

Quite. With Nestle's involvement in Dairying, one might think that they would be reluctant to draw Vegan attention to themselves?

 

[Old Tip]

Never knowingly bought a Nestle product for many years, disgusting company

 

[Barleycorn]

You don't have to look far to see whose funding all this nonsense.
