The Rise of Vegetarianism

John Harris is really rather sane here about vegetarianism. Except for this little bit:

How appalling that markets work, eh? That people change their behaviour when the incentives they face change?

    “living without meat was an integral part of the 80s counterculture that set itself against the adult world, international capitalism, and Margaret Thatcher”

    How quaint…
