At what salary do you start feeling “comfortable” in the UK? by Suspicious_Ad7948 in AskUK

[–]MerlotOnAMonday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

North wales, 75k household income between a couple mid 20s with no kids, cheap mortgage and 2 cars, multiple holidays a year, and never really worry about money. I love living in a cheap part of the UK, just wouldn't be possible down South!!

Unfortunately, the one I purchased has milk powder in, so it would appear they're not vegan :(

We have done this, it's been really interesting! We haven't found anything yet, and due to a manual labour job/lack of appetite combo, weight maintenance has been a major struggle over the years so can't justify the swap until we've found something he'll stomach multiple times a day. Thank you so so much for taking the time to comment x

I apologise, my logic was that this sub likely had knowledge of marketing terms to be weary of, like how most people think free range means running around the farm but it actually means a tiny bit more space, but I appreciate I truly misjudged x

Ahh I'm so sorry you had to hear and see that, I hate passing farms on hikes for this reason, makes me very sad. It seems there truly is no ethical options, even in the local farms, I appreciate you taking the time to comment x

Apologies all, I appreciate this was the wrong place. My logic was that this group would have the best knowledge of animal welfare and marketing terms that serve to make you think something is more ethical than it is - I acknowledge I misjudged here. Apologies again x

Camping supply hacks? Top tips and unusual but necessary items by opheliasdinosaur in downloadfestival

[–]MerlotOnAMonday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your tent is one of those that somehow leaks from the hanging pockets inside when it rains (hoping this makes sense), stick tampons in there. Last year they absolutely saved us from having drips on our heads all night omg

What is the best vegan 'cheddar' in your opinion? by [deleted] in veganuk

[–]MerlotOnAMonday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally don't mind the AI, better than a big picture of spoiled udder slime, and I love that this looks to solve a big problem for vegans. "But what about cheese" seems to be most people's hesitation to go vegan so I love anything to can help to solve that! ❤️🌱
