For Eve and me this period has seen relocation from our home of 39 years to something smaller, albeit within sight of the previous property. We were pleased to be able to find time to attend events of both the Manchester and the Merseyside & Mid-Cheshire branches, including their respective Annual General Meetings. I write this near the end of April and we are looking forward to attending a Liverpool branch event for the first time. Terry Lim and friends are to be congratulated on building that branch into a viable entity in a short space of time. Congratulations are also due to the Zurich branch for organising a very successful break in the Lake Maggiore area this April. That leads me to mention news of some other areas where prospects are being nurtured. Experience has taught us that a promising start is no guarantee of getting sufficient members for a provisional charter to be granted but Latvia and Athens are two possibilities. So also is Munster and in that connection, if you have friends who live in or around Cork who might be interested in joining a branch in that area then please pass details to Katie Wilkins (contact notes appear next to the Editorial) so that they can be notified of developments.

  • Game Recipes for Charity Chefs
    VERSION 4 THE COUNTRY FOOD TRUST GAME RECIPES FOR CHARITY CHEFS The Country Food Trust is a charity food producer making top quality protein based read meals in ambient pouches which we donate to charities that feed people in need. Currently we have three products : The Country Casserole, a nutritious and warming pheasant casserole The Country Curry, a mildly spicy pheasant curry The Country Bolognese, a rich and tasty venison ragu. Since inception in 2015 we have produced over 1.9 million meals, which are donated to those in food poverty through charities that feed people in need or through amazing charities like FareShare who distribute food nationwide to other charities. We have now started to work with charities that can accept frozen game meat and make great fresh meals for their customers. To help chefs who may not be familiar with game our Chef Tim Maddams has reached out to a host of well-known and expert game chefs and asked them to produce recipes using either minced, diced or whole pheasant or partridge breasts and minced venison using ingredients likely to be found in a charity kitchen and able to be prepared in a kitchen with limited equipment. All of them gave their time freely to produce these recipes and top food photographer James Murphy did the photography free of charge. We were delighted with the response and thank them all profoundly - even if one or two of the chefs found the simplicity of the request a challenge! We hope the following pages will give you some ideas that will help you prepare delicious food for those that you are looking after.

ONE-PAGE RESEARCH QUESTION Introduction Chipotle Mexican Grill is an American company established in 1993 in Colorado that operates at thousands of locations across the United States and several locations abroad, including locations in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, and France. Chipotle gained popularity by promising consumers “food with integrity” sourced from local suppliers that is fresher and better for the environment than other typical American food chains, and this strategy worked. Up until 2014, Chipotle saw significant growth and success by promising what seemed like a healthier, although pricier, alternative for American consumers. However, the strategy that once led to its extreme success and trust from the public has been Chipotle’s downfall in recent years. As illness outbreaks in the United States have hurt the company’s sales and have led to distrust from the public, many people attributed these illness issues to Chipotle’s complex sourcing process of food ingredients.
