    Both would under estimate and over estimate the kinds of food they consumed.

    The would need to do something like this - https://www.nutrition.org.uk/nutriti...on-survey.html - which is very expensive to carry out, rather than something like this - https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/JP2SWKZ

    So take the survey with a pinch of salt

    And you shouldn't be adding salt to anything.

    Not big on alliteration or humour then?

    I found it interesting that masculinity (a male issue) is being put forward as a key cause of meat eating. I know plenty of women who eat meat because it tastes nice and they enjoy it.

    Meat is misogyny

    https://californianewstimes.com/masc...claims/429496/

    Masculinity: Men like meat because it makes them feel more MANLY, study claims

    Men like meat because it feels masculine: men consume more beef and chicken than women and establish and confirm a masculine identity, “the study claims.
    • UCLA experts surveyed approximately 1,700 US adults about their diet and gender sensations.
    • The more men follow traditional gender roles, the more beef / chicken they eat
    • According to researchers, the same tendency is not seen among women
    • Findings may help encourage men to switch to a sustainable meat-free diet
    for Giggles a source that isn't the wail!
    Apparently if you give up meat noxious emissions decrease! Thought that was beans.
