  • Chillll… Its just donkey meat and the internet. The government does in fact talk about it. They publish reports about animal meat production and consumption like every nation. It’s part of their annual reports that prove a point that I really don’t care about at all. If you want to say they only eat cow in Argentina because you know best and no one can use internet sources to prove you wrong… Fine. Great. I don’t know what to say. You won this internet battle! Yay!




  • This is usually the case. There seems to be a nugget of truth in it, but articles always make it seem larger than life. Horse mule and donkey meat consumption is in fact up. Is it significant - no. Is it common, also no. Is it a THING? Na, no it’s not a thing. It’s simply slightly higher than it was before but still very rare.

    It doesn’t make sense for it to be a common thing as there simply is not enough donkeys in the country, even if you were to slaughter them all for it is be common. Apparently there is 59k donkeys and 50,920,790 cows in Argentina. There seems to be a 7-16% increase in the slaughter of donkeys for meat although this number seems to be in question. It apparently is a third the cost of cow meat.


  • I’m not in the UK but in Germany. That seems low and Germans are cheap AF. I usually expect things to be more expensive there. I don’t know about Googles overview, but this is what Google has to say.

    The average price of beef in the UK varies significantly by cut, with current retail prices for primary cuts typically ranging between £9.00 and £19.00 per kg. As of April 2026, retail beef prices have seen a sharp increase of approximately 16.4% year-on-year due to supply shortages

    The average price of ground beef (mince) in the UK has risen significantly, with retail prices typically ranging from £6.18 to £11.00 per kg as of April 2026
