    The sun makes everything better doesn't it? Hopefully it sticks around but I'm not convinced it will!

    Hi @66Mustang! I'm a proper Yorkshire lass 😄 Currently live in Holmfirth, Last of the Summer Wine country. Are you in Yorkshire too?

    @Rachel_Scope no I'm down south but I have lots of Yorkshire blood and I go there a lot! I love it, especially the Dales 😊

    That sounds like a nicer day than you had planned though at least @Sandy_123 ! Enjoy your lunch with your son 😊 I've just come back from having lunch and voting

    @Jimm_Scope

    Ooooh that sounds like a varied lunch break

    Now for the most important question about your decision but sorry if it's too personal:

    What did you have for lunch?

    I rewarded myself for voting by popping into the local bakers and getting myself a vegan sausage roll and a maple and pecan danish. I actually find their vegan sausage rolls tastier than their meat ones. They use a home-made nut-mushroom mixture that's actually really tasty.

    The maple pecan danish is really nice @Jimm_Scope

    Good choice

    I like lots of vegan foods but I don't understand shops trying to promote them as substitutes? If someone has a desire for meat then just have meat; if the vegan foods are nice, which many are, then why the need to use meat euphemisms? Just say what they are and let them sell themselves on their own merits 🤔

    Marketing a product as a substitute is like saying it's second best, which is the opposite of marketing and kind of discredits what may be, in isolation, a perfectly good product

    Hmm I sounded all serious there

    I'm getting more and more into eating more vegan/vegetarian foods as I'm cutting my meat intake down. I've got to say some things I prefer and are better than the meat versions. I'm also a lover of mushrooms and anything mushroom related so love to replace mushrooms in dishes rather than meat.

    That's my point @rubin16

    PS I love mushrooms as well

    Mary Berry is a good cook to look at recipes from, she puts mushrooms in lots of her recipes
