Bart Bakker

Managing Director at Scelta Inside

Sinds augustus 2018 woedt de Afrikaanse Varkenspest (AVP) in China en omringende landen. Miljoenen varkens worden geruimd. Op dit moment gaat 75% van het Europese varkensvlees en bijproducten naar Azië. De grote exportmarkt, maatschappelijk ongerief en misstanden bij fokkers en slachters zijn volgens tegenstanders van varkensvlees redenen genoeg voor een rigoureuze inkrimping van de Nederlandse sector. Sterker nog, het is hip om dierlijke eiwitten door ‘gezonde’ plantaardige varianten te vervangen. Ik wil niets afdoen aan de goede intenties van flexitariërs, vegetariërs en veganisten, maar ik voel mij steeds vaker gedwongen de vegan-boodschap te nuanceren.

Vegan or meat lover? Long live the freedom of choice!
