John Harris is really rather sane here about vegetarianism. Except for this little bit:
In the short-to-medium-term, it may well be the price of meat rather than high-minded ethics that sends sales of Quorn through the roof.
How appalling that markets work, eh? That people change their behaviour when the incentives they face change?
No real shock in the roots of his vegetarianism:
“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…
