Eat meat from happily reared animals, and then you have their permission to really enjoy what you eat. Seconded by my great great grandmother, Dorothy Peel, in her books 100 years ago: ‘To judge by a letter which has appeared in the daily press and from private conversations it would seem that many people think that to abstain from meat on one of two days a week and to limit their total consumption to 2 ½ lb. per head per week is a restriction which may seriously affect their health. To be quite frank, it may affect their greed, but it certainly will not adversely affect their health; indeed, there seems good reason to think that less meat-eating would improve the health of the well-to-do.’ Mrs C.S. Peel, The Eat Less Meat Book, 1917
