In this thought-provoking episode, Niall asks a tough question: Should we be paying more for our food if it means protecting the environment? As the cost of groceries continues to rise, listeners from across the country call in to share their views—some passionately in favour, others strongly opposed.

📞 One caller argues, "If paying an extra euro means supporting local farmers and reducing emissions, I'm all for it. We can’t keep destroying the planet just to save a few cents."

But not everyone agrees. Another listener insists, "People are already struggling to afford the basics. It’s not fair to ask working families to carry the cost of climate policy."

Niall also speaks to several farmers who say the real issue lies with government regulation. They point to rising compliance costs, EU policies, and increasing red tape as key drivers of food price inflation.

Tune in for a lively and honest debate that gets to the heart of one of the biggest questions facing Irish consumers today: Can we afford to eat sustainably—or can we afford not to?
