  Who did the meat industry have to pay to get a law passed saying that their product MUST be served at schools?

    I’m not sure it’s a law per se but more guidance that schools should endeavour to serve children a balanced diet which will include portions of meat/fish/poultry/dairy.

      Nah you can have healthier options for a balanced diet without raising your risk for chronic disease such as legumes, whole grains, whole grain bread , nuts and seeds, soy products, vegetables, plant-based protein powders and meat substitutes.

  Just cos you like animals doesn’t mean you’re not a capitalist.
