Comment on Dairy farmers say worker shortage is threatening UK food security
HumanPenguin@feddit.uk 2 days agoAgreed. Running out wise.
But the taste of the alternatives is simply not milk. Many find alternatives unpleasent. So their will always be a demand.
But yeah that demand is currently artificially high due to low pricing by supermarkets/delivery competition.
The whole thing is making things hard for dairy farms. Not just staffing that is more to do with the pricing.
But the whole supermarkets avoiding uK providers for cheese etc.

Oh no my milk tastes different is hardly a food security issue

Simple lack of a regular supply is a food security issue.
It has to be replaced and ensuring the alternative exist is an issue that takes land and effort.
At a time when farms harvest have failed. Alternatives also have issues.
Stop looking for reasons not to care.
