Give the meat a day off.

Too right, neighbour.

Any doubters need to check the link;

Indeed. And this is the Daily Mail we're talking about here - hardly a bastion of progressive thinking on any issue. The way intensively farmed turkeys, and other intensively farmed are treated is a f***ing discgrace, and schoolchildren should be made to watch real life footage of it happening so they can make decisions based on the actuality of the situation rather than the benign consumer-freindly exterior presented by the meat industry.

In all seriousness though, I can't see what encouraging meat-eaters to give up meat for one day is going to make. Surely decisions like that have to be for life, otherwise they can only ever consitute a token gesture.
