Скачать или смотреть The Town That Fed Britain 🇬🇧 | Fray Bentos, Uruguay

Most people in Britain know the name Fray Bentos from the pies sold in every supermarket. But what many don’t realise is that Fray Bentos is a real town in Uruguay — and it once fed half of Europe.

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Anglo meatpacking factory in Fray Bentos became one of the most important food producers in the world, exporting millions of tins of corned beef to Britain and beyond. During both World Wars, British troops were supplied with meat from this very place.
Today, the former factory is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, standing as a reminder of how a quiet South American town became part of British industrial history.

Join me as I explore the city, walk along the Río Uruguay, and step inside the factory that made the name Fray Bentos famous.

I am an older backpacker travelling the world proving that backpacking is not just for the younger generation.
