The Hunt (meat-free)

¨If we are brought up in a meat dependent culture, then we can also be brought up in a non-meat dependent culture.¨

Is this a difficult concept to grasp? Am I being unreasonable? I think not... obviously.

The difficulty of being a non-meat eater is that one is limited with choice. Even in this day and age, the 21st century, the idea that non-meat eaters only patron at places of their own kind continues to hold true. One obvious reason is there are just more meat-free choices. Whether you´re a meat eater or not, one will always lean towards having more choices over not having any at all. Good business sense would then be to have an even ratio of meat and non-meat offerings. While there are some restaurants who have good business sense, there are also those who do not.

Good food is good food. But which restaurants possess both good food and good business sense? Let the hunt begin.
