Sorry about that, comes from living in the sticks. The last time I had to rely on a supermarket for meat, I stopped eating meat. Not spending my money on grey meat. Youll like this, (and the bunnies will too, theyd probaby beg to share.) Weve started eating lovely big salads for breakfast. Best breakfast food Ive ever found.

At the supermarket its all standardised and glad-wrapped and disconnected from the source, which seems in a way disrespectful to the animal. A good butcher (such as the one near Coles at Birkenhead, which has a lot of organic meat) should be sympathetic to your situation if you explained it to them and be able to give you advice. Theyre the ones who are willing (if not permitted) to kill the beast they eat and theyll be able to tell you the difference a healthy well-treated animal can make. Ive found that butchers have become vastly more knowledgeable about gluten-free alternatives in the 5 years since Ive been off gluten, so you may find theyve changed for the better since you last went to one. And I dont blame you about pate - I dont like it but, if I did, Id refuse to eat it anyway!
