@KeithDJohnson Well, a real-life version of that was us (student house) running out of potatoes when extra unexpected dinner guests turned up, and adding some Instant Smash to the mashed real potatoes. At around 25% - nobody noticed, but we reckoned that was about the most we could get away with.
@KeithDJohnson I used to think a free market worked... Until shit like this...
@sldrant @KeithDJohnson a quick scan of food history in the UK, and particularly during the Industrial Revolution, shows why the free market, without regulation, is probably not such a great idea. a better idea of actually regulating food standards, has been around since the egyptians. https://www.hygienie.org/a-brief-history-of-uk-food-safety-law
