Young People Think Bacon Comes from Cows

A new study has shown that young people need more education about food & farming.  At Great British Chefs we were shocked to hear that a third of 16-23 year olds surveyed didn’t know where bacon came from, with 3% believing cows produced it and 8% thinking it came from wheat.
