So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

New Occasion: Purchasing Meat Online

By Jack Wogan


If you are one of nowadays' health-conscious consumers, you don't buy meat wherever that is offered to you. Supermarket customers are presented with a large range of products while more customers are allured with huge advertising campaigns. Still, if you place value on your nutritional health, these large scale retailers aren't really the solution that you need. They target someone with limited expenses or too distracted to thoroughly examine every possible quality flaw of the items he/ she would buy. Hypermarket policies don't really differentiate selling meat from selling any other fresh item, so these policies may have a negative impact on the public healthcare issues concerning meat. Just think of the last three major animal health epidemics, which are the mad cow's disease, the aviary flu and the swine flu, and if you are a health conscious customer, you wouldn't really buy meat in supermarkets.

Buying meat anywhere it is offered is not the solution of nowadays' comfort-seeking customers. Once again large shopping centres provide the most obvious negative example, with their appearance of having been designed for alert paced buyers. Grabbing hectically at the first pre-packaged meat tray that comes handy is another thing that our comfort-seeking customer will never do. Alert pace and comfortable living seem to be quite opposite notions. Add to this the sight of all the buyers who had large and quick access to the food isles now queuing at the cask desks, and the thought of having to do this several times a week for small quantities of fresh meat, and you will get one too many reasons.

Meat processers' shop lines present you with a more proficient version of the large shops. These processers and retailers know all the ins and outs of working with meat and this is their greatest advantage, while their greatest disadvantage is the direct consequence of their industrial size. When added to a large retail base, industrial processing means that you are to expect a potentially infinite range of individual products, made under ambiguous quality standards and from possibly changing or dangerous ingredients. Independent quality control is hardest here to accomplish. If you are one of nowadays' educated customer, then you have become aware of that.

Positive and negative traits may be listed in connection with traditional butchers' shops, but in their case the positive traits are in majority and also significant. Their smaller size allows these to assume specialization, and this is their major asset. The absence of industrial processing procedures makes all the tools and supplies, all the suppliers and all the products these shops deliver fully traceable. Moreover, policies based on product quality increase are successfully implemented by these shops. The smaller and more traditional butcheries are the better choice if one is after a healthy and fresh meat dish, which is wonderful in taste, even if the butcher's cannot really become a shopper-friendly environment either. There are improvements to this.

Our high tech world has brought success to the traditional meat processers, once these are not forced to sell on a very small scale any more. Contemporary traditional butchers have gone online and have enlarged their offer by offering bits of civilization alongside meat. Virtual butchers' have logs which inform their clients on nutrition facts, healthcare guidelines and cuisine. To date technology has enhanced customers into knowledgeable citizens, hunters into nature preservation experts and butchers into dieticians. It has also replaced the unpleasant butchery with an agreeable virtual lounge. And moreover it has brought back something that butchers were able to offer for centuries, in more traditional places and times, namely trust.
