If eliminating meat from your daily diet seems intimidating—if not downright impossible—you’re not alone. In fact, just 8 percent of the world’s population is vegetarian or vegan. For the other 92 percent of omnivores out there, going meatless one day a week can be more practical. That’s why the Johns Hopkins Center for a Livable Future launched the first official Meatless Monday campaign in 2003. By choosing the first weekday to go meatless, they hope to encourage more Americans to consume less meat. Not sure if you’re ready to take the leap?

Meat6 is good for you. Kiss my a**!

Is this like my childhood’s Fish on Friday?
Environmentalism really is a religion.
Oh how true!
Catholics used to do that every Friday. Now they do it every Friday during Lent.
Meatless Fridays in Lent are still the rule for Catholics.
It is. I thank the crew here at FR for bringing this topic up, as it brought that memory back to mind.
That was often what we ate in my younger days, too. I can’t stomach them now. Give me fresh fish anytime, just not fish sticks. Those were gross.
Oh, the irony! Reader's Digest used to be considered so virulently right wing that college students would rip up copies found on newsstands.
But is Spam really meat? : )
Their Kung Pao is better...
