Meat-Free January, Anyone?
Ask a Question
Is anyone planning to have a meat-free January?
Would you get bored after the first day / week or do you think you could stay the whole distance?
I've too many rabbits , moles and hedgehogs in my outside larder , they'd be no good after a month .
It will also be Dry January (no alcohol). There is probably some form of abstinence happening every month of the year and I never take part any of them. Although, I'm not much of a meat eater, so will likely inadvertently be doing this one
No chance love my meat. Same won’t be taking up any new resolutions live every day as it’s your last
No but I am going to do a sober January, despite a lot of alcohol gifts. I do it every year as after all the rich food and drink my body needs the rest
beccatavender sounds like you have a good detox plan despite being surrounded by all the alcohol from xmas. That's some will power!!
chelseaturpin that's sounds like hard work to be honest! Its the checking of all the labels and taking extra care about the fine print that would get to me!
I think I would be fine during the first week or so. But it would definitely get boring fast.
I don't get it. If you want to give up meat (or anything else), then why only do it or start doing it in a particular month as opposed to whenever you are ready? I don't understand these silly monthly trends.
Wouldn’t manage a few hours never mind a month. Farming in the family so all for the meat industry too.
Probably could do it but not sure if I would want to. There’s loads of vegan options in the shops
I would cave by lunchtime on the first day! I have no problem eating vegan or vegetarian food, some of it is delicious but I couldn't do it every single day.
I never do any of these monthly fads, I don't drink so never do any of the sober October etc stuff, I don't smoke so don't do Stoptober or any of the others.
No. I gave up vegetarianism years ago, and I’ve no intention of going back, although I will say there are more options these days than there were before
I have no interest in not eating meat and bet many 'new' vegetarians can't resist a bacon sandwich!
Every veggie I've ever known does cheat and eat a bit of chicken or bacon every now and then. No, I will not be giving up meat any time soon.
No, thanks. I'm already planning to keep my diet free of sugar and flour from January. So if I cut out meat as well, it might as well be a food-free January!
