The Los Angeles Daily News says it doesn't make Monday meat consumption illegal and police won't be checking what you brought to work for lunch.
The resolution is simply designed to make residents healthier and reduce the impact on the environment.
CBS Los Angeles reported in September that the cafeteria at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center has implemented "Meatless Mondays" once a month. Dana Hunnes a senior dietician at the medical center told the station that eating a vegan diet helps prevent weight gain and diseases like heart disease, cancer and diabetes.

Re: Meatless Mondays
At this point we're pretty much doomed to being a nation of fat, lazy slobs. Legislation like this isn't going to do much to change that.

Re: Meatless Mondays
If you want some "awareness Legislation"
pass something that makes Americans walk through their local Wal-Mart
That alone is enough to terrify you into correcting your diet
Jeezus..!!!

It was so much easier in days of yore when you could control what people ate just by making a religious decree.

Re: Meatless Mondays
More vegetarian pseudoscience being peddled like it's fact.
Here's a rule of thumb for meat....the more sophisticated an animal's brain is, the less healthy it is to eat it. You don't need to give up meat...just eat certain meats less.

Re: Meatless Mondays
Eating meat at every meal is a 20th century thing. Meat these days are pumped full of hormones and all that crap that you eventually ingest . Really the best meat is that you catch and/or hunt, it's more pure.Pwns wrote:More vegetarian pseudoscience being peddled like it's fact.

The company I work for has a free fruit Tuesday, which is a better way to encourage eating healthy food, IMO. Oranges today.
