Not for little Jimmy's eyes?
Sad story of a butcher's shop in Suffolk which has had to take down its traditional display of animal and bird carcasses in the window because of complaints from passers-by objecting to having to look at "bits of dead animals". Sad because it's symptomatic of the modern approach to food production which has resulted in a generation who are growing up having no real understanding of - or interest in - where food comes from. Not that I want to go to an abattoir and watch animals being slaughtered, but I would much rather go to a butcher's like that and know what I'm getting than (as I'm afraid I too often do) buy a packaged ready meal containing who knows what. Get real, people!
