Meat makes nice landscapes, think peaks or dakes, lake district as opposed to linconshire.
Cattle is clearly all that is required to make the scenry of the flatlands of lincolnshire as beautiful and spectacular as the Lakes or the Peaks. IIRC no view cannot be improved without a herd. Pyramids no cattle and it is shit taj Mahal sacred cows so beautiful FACT.
I suspect a veggie is more likely to cook - certainly an older one as there was no veggie food when we turned veggie- and yes most processed food is full of crap whether veggie or not.

One way around these grain fed animals if your concerned about that is to look at sourcing from a butcher that gets its meat from grass fed organic farms. Also grass fed animals provide far healthier meat than those from grain fed "factory" reared animals.
Although obviously if everyone in the world did this it brings with it the same space issues.

To be honest, here in the arse end of Spain, in our small town, we still have horses tied up outside bars. Certainly no veggie or vegan restaurants,lol. We do have one which only serves meat and cheese but to be fair to them you do still get olives

A couple of colleagues have just 'discovered' corn fed chicken and grass-fed beef and are raving about it. "tastes like meat did when i was a kid" etc.
I think there would be an argument to say that you would be happy with a smaller amount of really good meat in a meal in a restaurant, rather than a large amount of bland cardboardy meat. In the same way that really good cheese is way more satisfying than three times that quantity of cathedral city, and one proper coffee if better than three nescafés (or an infinite quantity of 'mellow birds').

Linconshire and the like were a lot more beautiful, biodiverse and better environmentally when they had mixed farming, instead of monocrop deserts. I am pretty sure that mixed rotation farming is the most environmentally friendly in this country, problem is not what you eat, most of it is grown with oil anyway.

Roper, I think you should give it a try. Plus I don't see why you have to go the whole hog
.....why not just give up the stuff that you think isn't good? You could still eat the fresh fish.FWIW I was a psuedo veggie for many years. I always ate fish, but no other meats, and no farmed fish like trout and salmon, unless I knew who caught it and where. I even used to check the ingredients on packets of biscuits to see if they contained animal fat. I didn't eat meat because of the way it is reared. However, since I moved to France I started eating meat again. The difference being that I know exactly where the meat has come from and how it has been reared. I ride past it on my bike!!!! I think if it has been reared with respect, that's OK (I may be wrong).
Please let us know how you get on.
