#BlogLife57 - The supermarket's addiction to pork

Why do supermarkets feel the need to add pork to every meal that didn't previously contain it? I am not a vegan or vegetarian and actively avoid most products that contain pork in them.

I do not like the smell or taste of it. There are chicken and vegetarian options that are handy for quick meals but as soon as I blink they are quickly removed and suddenly there is a pork element added to it.

We don't all have the obsession with it that you supermarkets do. Grrr it is so irritating to enjoy a brand and look forward to purchasing it again only to find it has been replaced with meat or pork!!!

Yes there are vegan and vegetarian options but the replacement stuff for some of these are cheap nasty copies of the high quality original.

Iceland had this delicious moreish macaroni cheese with a breadcrumb coating only to then remove it and replace it with... You guessed it pork meatballs. Yuckity!

That is just one example but there are too many to count. Here is my compromise. If you clearly insist on adding meat or pork to a perfect dish.

Have two variations. Create something for meat lovers with the addition of pork and for everyone else, just leave it untampered without meat.

That way everyone is happy!
