Danish start Marmite 'Hate' Campaign
Danish Marmite Hate Campaign – Racist? Foodist? Speciest? Against The Human Rights of Vegans and Vegetarians?
Why on earth would the Danish ban Marmite? Other than someone in the Danish Government is a hater?
The Danish have been on this trip for a while, they are similarly preoccupied with Cereals with added vitamins.
They are philosophically against added vitamins in food as they feel it should be the choice of the individual to supplement and then supplement with what they need not what they don’t need.
In some ways it has advantages – it promotes the idea of eating real food and getting your nutrients from food rather than eating crap food with added vitamins to keep you buying them.
I must admit the idea of taking all the vitamins and minerals out of flour when the process it into white flour then legislating to add folate and b vits in bread to replace them seems a little daft – people should just eat wholemeal bread.
I see this as a major poke in the eye for vegetarians and vegans as it’s a key source of vitamin B 12 for them, wait for the backlash I can hear the swell of the ocean, the foaming of the tidal wave….
