I only eat them in summer. In winter I'd rather have vegetables than a salad.

I rarely eat rabbit food anyway. As long as the onions, potatoes and peppers are ok and a bit of Carrot and turnip on a Sunday, then that will do me. I can live without salad, fruit and greens.

You can make a salad with just leafy greens anyway.

They're trying to starve you into submission.

I've been telling you. I posted about the uptake in food factory fires around the West and the fact that Bill Gates and the World economic forum are taking over the farming.

You can only call me a conspiracy theorist for so long before reality finally hits you. Then it will be too late

Basically for those who dont want to read it, the supermarkets wont pay the prices being asked, so they would rather their customers went without, go to your local fruit and veg stall or farm shop there are no shortages.

Turnips are now in short supply after the the intervention of our delightful environment minister


In my location, apple growers are either digging up their apple trees or letting their apples rot on the ground because supermarkets wont pay them enough to make it worth their while. Centuries of growing, wiped out this year

The supermarket giants are a disgrace, there should be government intervention on pricing

Honestly how Therese Coffey has any kind of ministerial position is beyond belief.
One of the most ridiculous and incompetent people ever in politics she is in my view.

Plenty of cucumbers and peppers in there
