I moved in with my veggie partner last year and was worried about what the impact would be. She works a 5 minute walk from our house and works 9-5, I work a 40 minute ride from home and work 8.30-5.30. Because she's normally home at least an hour before me, she does most of the cooking mon-fri, so it's all veggie.
It means that during the week I eat meat in a maximum of 3 meals, I've lost weight, saved a ton of money and it's meant that the meat I buy is of a much higher quality (because I don't need to buy in bulk). If anybody is thinking of going semi-veggie, my wallet, my receding belly, and my sense of moral superiority over the common man would thoroughly recommend it.
On the same subject, anybody checked out the things being done by Impossible Foods https://www.impossiblefoods.com/ and Beyond Meat - http://beyondmeat.com ? Veggie food that looks, tastes, and feels exactly like meat but without the killing that goes with it. I want to test it out, but as of yet I am yet to find a UK supplier.
