After
eating at the Laughing Seed on Monday, I realized that it is possible for
people to eat and get protein from their foods without eating meat…I did
already know this but eating at the restaurant solidified the idea more to
me. However, I am not sure it was any
healthier than non-vegetarian food as I ordered a pasta dish with cream
sauce. But there were some very healthy
options on the menu which seemed more foreign to most of us and therefore was
not attempted.
Pollan illustrates the ethical
dilemma of eating meat regularly in his books and there are people who take
this seriously. Is this an ethical issue
we as a culture should address? Or should we keep carrying on not thinking too
much about the animals as beings but merely as a food source?
