Meat Quality of William Rose


Be blessed

Recommended Posts

Anyone who thinks Post Brexit will send the country down the pan has not been paying attention

to the state of the Country over the past 20-30 years.


Why do people continue to moan about..


The Tranport System.. Trains .. Buses.. ?


The NHS.. Doctors.. Appointments ?


Job Loses ... Unemployment... Redundancies... Pay..


Housing.. Shortages.. Affordability.. Homelessness..


ETA.

Schools.. Choices.. Location.. Availablity..


It's already happening without Brexit ..and nothing is being done...


Brexit cannot be worse.. for the majority of people..

Yes. They have some great stuff in there


We had a shoulder of lamb for Christmas Day and a lovely thick Cote de Bouef for Christmas Eve. Both were really nice. The shoulder was about ?11. We (2 of us) were stuffed on Christmas Day and had enough leftover for lamb curry for 3 today.


I used to live opposite and I'm gutted I don't anymore!


William Rose is a little hit and miss for me. I've had some great stuff from there but occasionally it's not been so good.


Big thumbs up for the Butchery in Forest Hill too.

I used to work with the Food Technology team at Waitrose. I know how much effort big supermarkets put in to ensure the source of the meat is as claimed. I must say I now have more confidence with the meat quality from supermarkets than any independent butchers.


British farming standard is known to be one of the highest within Europe. I am more than happy to pay more for British produce. However I am not prepared to pay a premium just for European produce to be processed or packed in the UK.


WR is a reasonably priced butcher, no doubt. However, for my family, we do want to support British farmers and British standard, I just don't feel I can blindly accept the verbal guarantee from WR any more.

I don't disagree with everyone's sentiments, however, I'm not convinced WR is misrepresenting its meat based on the experience of the first post (Be blessed). It seems unlikely WR expects to get away with lying about the origin of the meat when it's in its original packaging and clearly labelled. Perhaps the counter person was misinformed/mistaken/a bit lax?


I've been convinced by the integrity, quality and prices of WR over many years. But I'm definitely out of there if I've got this wrong. It will be a major let down if East Dulwich can't rely on them.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
