The Telegraph reported this week how a new report has shown how consumption of game dishes has soared as shoppers become more adventurous with their choices. New figures released from TNS Worldpanel confirmed that consumption of game in the UK has risen by 15% in the last year. The research shows that game was eaten in shops, pubs and restaurants on 31.7 million occasions. This is fantastic news for the Countryside Alliance’s Game-to-Eat promotional campaign, now in its 9th year. Game-to-Eat has organised in-store sampling of hot British Gressingham Pheasant in a number of Tesco stores across the country on 19 and 20 November.
