I buy a lot less meat, and I consume much less too. I eat a lot more grains, pulses and vegetables instead.
I still get some meat from the supermarket, but I also try to buy direct from the farm or get free meat in exchange for services, like some sort of neopeasant.
When I use meat, I bulk it out by other means, like lentils or barley, and flavor-up with various techniques.
I don’t eat pork or beef unless it’s provided to me by the person that owned the animal. I still eat a lot of lamb and chicken though.
Yeah pearl barley can’t be beaten in a stew or even a curry. And I’ve started eating beyond burgers instead of meaty ones - I’m not a veggie, I enjoy meat. But I’m not comfortable with the ethical issues, and it’s full of saturated fats. They cost about the same, are less unhealthy, and they’re tasty. A soon as the alternatives industry can come up with more products like this that I can afford, I’m out.
