[QUOTE="Poncherello1976, post: 7361411, member: 2198"] After sending various emails and phone calls over the last 2 days I thought I would share with you where I am with the advert. Oatly - No response so far. (I am not expecting much from them, but would love the chance for a sensible discussion on the topic!) NFU and Red Tractor seem to be as much use as a chocolate tea pot. NFU have made a couple of comments on their social media and that seems to be it. I have had no response from Red Tractor, yet! I did suggest that they ought to open up dialogue with Oatly to try and get a market open for British Oats, but hat maybe too much like hard work! I am a Red Tractor member and thought this is a golden opportunity to push their 'premium product'! AHDB - have had a good chat with them, and they have made complaints through the usual channels. I do not know how far they are going to take it though. They had a complaint about the BBCs food programme a couple of weeks a go upheld. I have no idea what this means though. I have seen no retraction or apology from the BBC. FW and Farmers Guardian have/are doing articles on it, but that is not really helping much. As a non member, i said to the NFU its a good chance to show me why I should be a member, but on the evidence so far they should not get too excited. I am sure lots have individuals have made a complaint against it, but this must be a time for the boards above the farmers to step up. They have the money, time and expertise. So it seems that you can put an advert out and get away with saying just about anything. [/QUOTE]
