Supermarkets of course keep detailed statistics on what people are buying, and sometimes these statistics indicate independent social trends.  Tesco have released data showing that meat-free meals are on the increase and that - shock, horror - sprouts are now overtaking pigs in blankets as the preferred accompaniment to a  Christmas dinner.  There are vegetarians in our family (no vegans - yet) so we are a pretty broad church, food-wise, but really?  Sprouts as favourites??
