    Default meatless Monday

    http://www.meatlessmonday.org/

    "The Meatless Monday goal is to reduce consumption of saturated fat by at least 15% by 2010. This is consistent with the dietary recommendations of the US Dept. of Health and Human Services, the US Dept. of Agriculture, and the American Heart Association.

    Contradictory messages about health and nutrition have confused Americans about what we should eat. One message is clear: we eat too much meat and not enough of the fruits, vegetables and whole grains that help prevent heart disease, stroke and cancer."

    I agree way too much meat is consumed in our society. Interesting though since the BSE crisis in Canada, eating beef is up 7%.

    We do many meatless meals around here for both health and economic reasons.
