The Nile Delta is the delta formed in Lower Egypt where the Nile River spreads out and drains into the Mediterranean Sea. It is one of the world’s largest river deltas—from Alexandria in the west to Port Said in the east, it covers 240 km (150 mi) of Mediterranean coastline and is a rich agricultural region. From north to south the delta is approximately 160 km (99 mi) in length. The Delta begins downriver from Cairo.
The delta is sometimes divided into sections, with the Nile dividing into two main distributaries, the Damietta and the Rosetta, flowing into the Mediterranean at port cities with the same name. In the past, the delta had several distributaries, but these have been lost due to flood control, silting and changing relief.
The Suez Canal is east of the delta and enters the coastal Lake Manzala in the north-east of the delta. To the north-west are three other coastal lakes or lagoons: Lake Burullus, Lake Idku and Lake Mariout.
In modern day, the outer edges of the delta are eroding, and some coastal lagoons have seen increasing salinity levels as their connection to the Mediterranean Sea increases. Since the delta no longer receives an annual supply of nutrients and sediments from upstream due to the construction of the Aswan Dam, the soils of the floodplains have become poorer, and large amounts of fertilizers are now used. Topsoil in the delta can be as much as 21 m (70 ft) in depth.

Made this right quick, a friend suggested the topic :blob-no-thoughts:
Thousands of years of human history where meat was an occasional treat and they still can’t figure out how to make vegan frozen meals without adding overpriced imitation meat that tastes like ass.
Frozen meals are just meals that have been frozen :very-smart:
In other words it’d be easy enough to make frozen vegan meals if they weren’t so attached to the idea that every meal should include some form of meat.
More like industrial food production is an intertwined cesspit of corporations more concerned with unloading product than providing a quality meal. Tyson cut deals so you have to have their chicken in your meals whether you like it or not, just like how corn is in every product imaginable in the US. Capitalism when no good food
I can get some decent shit. Rice n beans, a few curry dishes, couple pastas. We’ve got decent vegan shit here
