Brexit or Breaksit?

[Dartz]

Our as one of our interns put it "Irish butter is normal butter here".

We avoided BSE here in Ireland. We had a collective brick-shit when frozen horsemeat snuck into the food processing plants but everything was rapidly traceable. It still utterly killed Findus in the UK.

Basic food produce is - in general - extremely high quality. Butter, bread, vegetables, meats - stuff that's actually reasonably fresh.

In part thanks to the EU and in part because we've a lot of farmers here. Although that said - processed food of any sort can be just as bad as anywhere else - I ve had some horrible 'chicken' pieces that had the texture of cumbly, gooey rubber when cooked. And they aren't much cheaper than fresh meat - just more prepared.
