German meat law limits weekly intake to 250 grams
The October 2 rule across the German empire caps adult meat at 250 grams per week and 125 grams for children under a certain age, drawing sharp criticism in major German papers over perceived favoritism for certain classes and warnings of rising prices in small-animal markets including rabbits and goats. Reports cite officials lamenting profiteering and urging price oversight while noting pork supplies may decline despite military necessity. Local Berlin thefts and robberies over ham and pork highlight wartime tensions over meat.
