Does anyone know what this actually means if the Brexit talks go awry. This is not a political post but I'm wondering what information is out there regarding our food supplies. It wasn't easy getting hold of certain foods during the first lockdown, are we in for more of the same? I can manage without tinned tomatoes, is there going to be an unexpected run on baked beans?!

I was reading this BBC article the other day LINK I quite agree about the "perfect storm" comments on here. I've now put some extra "stock" items on my shopping list.

At least the contents needed for the mince pies I'm about to make are already in my kitchen.

We use Flavahan’s Porridge Oats brue, usually get them at Aldi, but I think some of other supermarkets do them. Organic Irish.

If we were twenty years younger, and no one to care for, I think we would have emigrated. If Scotland gets Independence, Dumfries and Galloway looks mighty tempting.....

Hi

I must admit to stockpiling. I have 108 cans of guinness in the garage. That should see me through to boxing dayyell

I'd never heard about them, so I looked them up, milling oats since 1675! Goodness me, we just don't know our own producers!

Just had a thought.......prompted by AbM’s championing of local British (proper still made in Britain, not sold their soul to the multinational giants overseas) food and drinks products, how about a thread championing locally made foodstuffs? Sure to be some that we might not have heard about......🤷‍♀️

I will start another thread......
