Bacon off the menu for Peppa Pig family show in Grimsby

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1kgnp7xwx2o

A theatre has agreed to remove bacon and sausages from its café menu during a production featuring Peppa Pig.

Grimsby Auditorium said it made the decision "as a considerate gesture" following a request from an animal rights charity.

The theatre said it was committed to continually reviewing and enhancing its menu offerings, and would be removing all pork products during performances of Peppa Pig's Big Family Show on 3 and 4 March.

I happy to see the people behind this are adhering to the proud British tradition of traumatizing children with horrifying, low budget costumes of beloved animated characters.

Why not stop serving it indefinitely? I don’t understand why we keep locking up animals and trashing the environment for nothing but taste.
