LUSH Staff Go Vegan For A Day

October 31, 2008

“Though LUSH sells nothing but vegetarian and vegan products, the company estimates about 80 percent of its 824 employees are meat-eaters. Still, the company’s shop assistants, managers, directors and owners have agreed to go meatless for a day, as well as dropping dairy and evading the edible egg.” (source)

Now that’s a good idea.

PS - I like LUSH products and luckily there’s a LUSH store in the Mandalay Bay.

    Cutting back your meat intake once a week can be a simple, manageable way to improve your health. I work for a non-profit public health campaign called Meatless Mondays, which encourages Americans to cut the meat out of their diets one day a week. Unlike the Lush staff, Meatless Mondays still incorporates cheese and dairy into their Monday Recipes. The mission of Meatless Mondays is to reduce American’s meat intake by 15% thus reducing an individual’s chances of getting heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes. Reducing your meat by 15% can be achieved just by cutting meat out of your diet one day per week (we encourage Mondays, hence the name.) If anyone is interested in healthy, affordable, tasty meatless recipes, I suggest you log-on to http://www.meatlessmonday.com. We’re affiliated with John’s Hopkins Bloomberg School of Health, so it can also be a great resource for health articles and tips.

Got something to say?
