IntroductionNEW YORK (AP) — Preston Cabral eats meat nearly every day at home, but his favorite meals at school
NEW YORK (AP) — Preston Cabral eats meat nearly every day at home, but his favorite meals at school are served on “Meatless Mondays” and “Vegan Fridays.”
“Today I ate chips, tangerines and this thing that looked like chili but without the meat — just beans,” the 12-year-old said after lunch on a Friday at I.S. 318 Eugenio Maria De Hostos.
The Monday and Friday lunches have inspired Preston’s family to make more vegetarian meals at home, sparking what experts say is a healthy shift for them — and for the planet.
Programs like these are among the few proven to work for one of the thorniest problems of the 21st century: How to get people to eat less meat.
