Paul McCartney says “Let It Be…Meat-Free Mondays”

Most people get their protein from meat, but did you know that you could go meat-free and also get it from bugs…like a beetle?

Well, you can get knowledge about protein from a different kind of beetle.

According to Paul McCartney, a pop culture icon from the legendary rock and roll band The Beatles, you don’t have to eat meat to be healthy.

A vegetarian for many years, McCartney is asking for all Britons to adopt “Meat-Free Mondays,” which is apparently popular in Australia.

He says this will reduce the environmental impact of cattle rearing and help protect the planet.

Here’s the full article.

McCartney is the latest star to wear a “Eat No Animal” t-shirt for a PETA advertising campaign.

Now what I don’t understand is why McCartney and Yoko Ono don’t get along, since they both are vegetarians.

Maybe all the lack of “red” meat has them “green” with vegetable envy.
