Do you think there’s much risk they’ll serve much more eggs in response? That could be one way the intervention ends up being worse for animals than you’d have expected, and possibly even bad overall.
Good question. ProVeg works with councils on refining their menu and the implementation of a new menu after a commitment. To my knowledge they don’t recommend eggs as replacements for the meat meals and they focus predominately on plant-based options as replacements. The only exceptions I’ve seen to this is two cases of dairy cheese included in a total of 40 recommended meals. I can follow up with them about this on Thursday however as it’s definitely important.
In essence, the new meals are almost always plant-based but the schools legally have to serve a portion of milk or dairy every single day which is why they’re labelled vegetarian days vs plant-based days.
