I think people who abandon pets when they hit financial difficulties are scum.
I could not agree with you more.
Groceries: prices in the Uk have gotten so much better, there's also a better variety, lots of organic food that won't make you bankrupt. Same in Germany - although they've had a bunch of food scandals lately. What I dislike here: all these fillers. For instance, too much soy. High fructose corn syrup. Palm oil. Saying it's low-fat, but it's full of sugar. Claiming bread is whole grain, when it really isn't. I particularly dislike the latest prices for dairy and related products - and there's still SOY in those once you take a closer look. I order my dairy stuff from Wisconsin - they don't do that (see, even I sometimes splurge). Vegetables are a disaster, too. Pesticides. I have reasons for growing my own. A lot of what is sold here just tastes artificial. Where do you shop for groceries?
