To go back to my previous post, for a plant-based diet to be attractive, we need to help people choose plant based alternatives to meat for more or less all occasions. So meat is no longer the default
That's what we need good chefs for: to help turn traditional foods into vegetarian/vegan alternatives that are tasty and easy to prepare.
Most traditional dishes are surprisingly modern. Our tastes can easily be changed...
As an example, in France, the markets are laden with charcuterie and cheese, BUT ALSO, beautiful fresh fruits and vegetables - a nudge towards the latter would improve human health, animal welfare and reduce emissions...
#PlantBased food.

Les charges sociales? En Allemagne, c'est 50/50 entre patrons et employés. En France, c'est asymétrique: Le patron paye plus. Au coût total on est Š 50% du coût total de l'employé en Allemagne contre 55% en France. Il faut comparer cela au Luxembourg et ses 18% (et les LUX vivent mieux!)
Interestingly enough, these NATO exercises includes Danish, German and French troops. And that's all.

Quand on nous dit que seulement 5% d'affections longue durée dans la sécu en Allemagne contre 20% en France, ils oublient de dire que la sécu allemande rembourse 100% et non pas 70% comme en France (et 90% en Alsace/Moselle).
