Mhoare92 Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 Next to the other stage there was a place called Sausage Fest, did hot dogs and I think Sausage and Mash but it wasn't there at all this year. Was gutted it was my hangover food every year since 2013 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owner declined. Fundraising person pushed for reasoning - owner gave her reasons, which were something a bit woo about energy misalignment causing gender dysphoria and wished fundraiser luck, but no thanks. Fundraiser then accused owner of transphobia, convinced half the staff to quit and made a website, insta account and twitter to urge a boycott.

The route down the hill from the JP to the main path this year seemed to have a concentration of some of the lamest food stalls on site, like a bad stereotype of Reading 10-15 years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going back quite a few years now but I'm reasonably confident that the place you mention was a small scale campaign group with very pleasant tactics. Don't think I've noticed them for ~10 years or so though. Very pleasant indeed. They say you don't win friends with salad, but they got my signature at least. I'm probably not allowed into China now, but it was worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the description you're quoting is a somewhat slanted take on what happened. The phrase "convinced half the staff to quit" is thrown in casually, as if it's somehow an act of malice, but that doesn't happen on a whim or without some proper due cause.

Pipine Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) I’m looking forward to revisiting Mexican Seoul (really amazing tacos) and Bayou (who I actually discovered at Camp Bestival this year but I’m pleased to see they were at Glastonbury too). Also the arancini place on the run down into west holts from green fields. I haven’t had the joy of the crumble shack so far so that’s top of my list too.
