When I see these, I’m reminded of the man who brought one back to Tesco and says, “When I opened this the food wasn’t in it.”

The assistant explains, “They don’t come with food, the picture’s just a suggestion.”
He looks disappointed, “I’ve got three more in the freezer.”

Still learning how to detect properly, and I'm just finding my feet.

Every autumn, a huge golden cross appears in the forests of County Donegal, Ireland.

3000 Japanese larch trees were planted among pine trees, creating a cross pattern when the larch trees turn yellow.

1604-1914, England. Parliament passes over 5,000 Enclosure Acts allowing wealthy landowners to fence off common land and claim it as private property.

Before enclosures, a peasant family might own a cow or two, some chickens, perhaps a pig, grazing them on common land. This meant even poor families had regular access to milk, eggs, occasional meat.

Subsistence, but it included animal protein regularly.

Enclosure destroys this overnight. A family that owned a cow but no land now can't feed that cow. Common pasture is gone, fenced off, private property. They can't afford to rent pasture. They sell the cow. No cow. No milk. No beef. Protein access vanishes in a single legal transaction they had no say in.

By 1850, almost all common land is enclosed. Millions of rural families lose their means of keeping animals. Where do they go? To cities. The Industrial Revolution doesn't just happen because of technology. Enclosure creates a landless working class with no choice but factory work. They crowd into slums. They work 14-hour days. And they eat bread.

The landowners thrive. Large estates become incredibly profitable. The aristocracy eats better than ever. Multiple meat courses per meal. The Victorian gentleman farmer lives on animal protein while his workers live on bread and potatoes.

Victorian nutritionists develop theories about racial differences in nutritional needs. The labouring classes need simple carbohydrate fuel for physical work. The educated classes need protein for mental work. This isn't science. This is justification. Workers don't have money. Workers eat grain.

The Scottish Clearances follow the same pattern. Highland chieftains discover sheep farming is more profitable than tenant crofting. They evict thousands. These families had kept cattle, hunted deer, fished in streams. The clearances end all of that. Their descendants in Glasgow slums eat oatmeal and potatoes. The sheep that replaced them become mutton for English dinner tables.

Your great-great-great-grandfather lost access to animal protein when Parliament took the common land. You're losing access because health authorities tell you meat is dangerous and environmental groups tell you it's immoral. Enclosure never ended. It just got more sophisticated.
