About a month ago (?), someone posted about a dietary category called "Flexitarianism" asking if anyone had heard of it. I hadn't. Supossedly, Flexitarians are people who attempt to cut-back on meat by upping the number of meatless dishes they eat and sidelining meat in the non-veggie dishes they do eat.
My September issue of Natural Health just came with a big article about Flexitarianism. It's very interesting. Obviously, I'm not going to trade in vegetarianism for flexitarianism but I definitely think it would be great for animal advocacy (not to mention the obesity epidemic) if more people would try this kind of eating.
Next time someone gives me the old "Oh, I'd love to be a vegetarian, but I could never do it", I'm going to recommend becoming a flexitarian!
