THÓI QUEN ĂN CHAY
Cho đến gần đây, việc ăn chay khá phổ biến ở Anh và nó vẫn bị một số người coi là lạ. Nhưng kể từ những năm 1960, mức độ phổ biến của nó đã tăng lên rất nhiều, đến mức các cửa hàng trên đường phố cao cấp dự trữ rất nhiều sản phẩm cho người ăn chay. Những lý do mọi người đưa ra cho việc không ăn thịt là rất nhiều. Có lẽ hầu hết những người ăn chay làm điều đó vì lý do đạo đức, cho rằng việc giết chóc là sai. Quan điểm đối lập là việc chúng ta giết để lấy thức ăn là điều tự nhiên và chúng ta đã tiến hóa để làm như vậy. Tuy nhiên, có những xã hội mà việc ăn thịt không được phép vì nó chống lại tôn giáo của họ. Có những lý do tốt khác để từ bỏ thịt, một trong số đó là sự không hiệu quả của chăn nuôi. Một cánh đồng duy nhất của cây đậu nành thực sự có thể tạo ra lượng protein gấp 200 lần số lượng gia súc có thể được nuôi trên cùng một diện tích đất, vì vậy một thế giới chay có thể là một thế giới không có đói. Mặc dù về lý thuyết, chỉ ăn rau thì rẻ hơn, ăn chay phổ biến nhất ở các nước giàu hơn như Đức và Anh, nơi nhiều người loại trừ thịt vì lý do sức khỏe. Ở những nước này, ít nhất, nó trở thành vấn đề được lựa chọn hơn là điều cần thiết.
