UN Starvation Diet Launched

The United Nations recommends that people should only eat a maximum of 14 grams of meat per day.

Maybe, if we are really nice to our unelected UN overlords, they will allow us to accumulate daily 14g meat credits.

Then, when we’ve obediently gathered sufficient credits, we can trade them all in for a proper steak.

A decent T-bone, for example, hits the scales at about 600g. That means if someone were to begin collecting 14g meat credits today, they’d finally be eating a T-bone on … September 21.

Thank you, UN. Thank you for so generously starving us.
