If they don’t get right with the Lord, they will wish climate change as in global COOLING.

Well, they can still have faggots, mash, and mushy peas:

Well this is great news for the restaurants off-campus, bad news for the vendors on campus. Let’s see how long this lasts

Maybe they should eat their own brains like in one of the Silence of the Lambs movies.

Muslims students will not be happy. Arabs eat a lot of lamb.

They know how to cook it too! Every hotel bar in the Middle East serves a plate of grilled lambchops, French fries, flat bread, hummus and a cucumber and yogurt salad. Good stuff!

I don’t know but I’d hazard a guess that pork is already on the ‘do not serve’ list.

Easy enough for them to get fish and chips or donor kebab off a food stand in London.

I'd be a little concerned about the provenance of the meat on that kebab...

The Beet notes campus “butteries,” late-night eateries which “follow their own policies,” would be exempt from any ban.

Why exempt them?

Is the beef and lamb from these other establishments not releasing CO2 or are they afraid they will relocate off campus if they can't server real food?

Exactly how is a beef/lamb ban anti-racism? I consider racist because I won't be able to get Beef w/Broccoli (Chinese), lamb vindaloo (Indian), and Lamb Souvlaki (Greek). What does Oxford have against ethnic foods?

I hate the future! It is well on its way to the United States. I swear they are going to force vegan on all of us. Why do you think all these fast food restaurants are selling no meat burgers and other stuff. They will tax the heck out of beef and other meats. Sin tax garage. I honestly think the future is projected to suck!

I believe I just saw a headline today that Vegans and others who do not eat meat, are more likely than meat eaters to suffer fractured bones.

The left used to say “Don’t impose your morality on me!” Now they say you must conform to their morality or be run out of business.

I read somewhere that part of the WEF Great Reset is to curtail meat eating.

Apparently they are planning on manufactured food products from what I’ve read.

Soylent Green anyone?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=

One of the quickest ways to become malnourished it to become a vegan. Most vegans only make it 5-7 years before their health issues are so serious & they feel so bad that they start adding back some form of meat. There are a very few vegans whose bodies can handle it (& they are super careful to supplement, etc.). One doctor, out of 900 patients, had 2-3 vegans who were doing ok. An OB’s worst nightmare is a pregnant vegan - they are not eating the foods that help their babies brains develop.

If you’re interested, here is an interview with a vegan who made it 20 years, much to the detriment of her health (spine is degenerating, among other issues):

Sustainable Dish Episode 46: The Vegetarian Myth with Lierre Keith
https://sustainabledish.com/podcasts/sustainable-dish-episode-46-vegetarian-myth-lierre-keith/

On this episode of the Sustainable Dish podcast I speak with Lierre Keith, author of the Vegetarian Myth, about her experience being a vegan for almost two decades and her eventual transition back into eating meat.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
My comment: what pisses me off to no end is that if someone wants to be vegan, go for it ... I have no problem with it; however, vegans want to IMPOSE their eway of eating on everyone else. They can’t persuade people because their way of eating is superior for good health so they try to do it using climate change, the environment, being kind to animals, etc. To be completely above board, I am almost totally carnivore - I patronize local farms that use regenerative farming methods & ethical/humane raising/harvesting of animals. If you want further into on this, you can check out the movie “Sacred Cow” - you can view it for free between now and Nov. 30 (I’ve seen it & it’s excellent):

https://www.sacredcow.info/

A different side of the story

“At our grocery stores and dinner tables, even the most thoughtful consumers are overwhelmed by the number of considerations to weigh when choosing what to eat—especially when it comes to meat. Guided by the noble principle of least harm, many responsible citizens resolve the ethical, environmental and nutritional conundrum by quitting meat entirely. But can a healthy, sustainable and conscientious food system exist without animals?

Sacred Cow probes the fundamental moral, environmental and nutritional quandaries we face in raising and eating animals. In this film project, we focus our lens on the largest and perhaps most maligned of farmed animals, the cow.”
