We recently spent some time with some Vegans. They were morally opposed to eating animal products of any sort. It is Lent which is a time when Catholics don't eat meat on Fridays and perhaps other days. Another fellow who is extremely concerned about the environment claims eating less beef will save the Earth's ecosystem. A financial adviser says eating less meat will save us money. From our point of view we see that meat has high levels of cholesterol and saturated fat which are bad for your health and weight.
