AN author who spent a year only eating meat from animals she had caught and killed herself is hosting a dinner at a Glasgow deli.
Eusebi Deli in the city’s West End is holding an event with Louise Gray to challenge people’s opinions on eating meat. There will be a tasting menu based on Gray’s book, The Ethical Carnivore.
Held on 11 January, the event in collaboration with Peelham Farm will cost £40, including a signed copy of Gray’s book. Wine pairing is available for an extra £20.
Giovanna Eusebi of Eusebi Deli said: “We are very much looking forward to welcoming Louise to Eusebi Deli. With the event falling in ‘Vegan-uary’ it is the perfect time to talk about how we see and eat meat in this country. I am looking forward to hearing Louise’s perspective after her Ethical Carnivore journey, and discuss the future of meat consumption.”
Winner of the BBC Radio 4 Food Programme Book of the Year, Gray believes we should all be aware of where our meat comes from.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
