Canadians Big Fans Of Meat, But Looking To Curb Consumption: Study

More than one-sixth of Canadians have consciously cut back on the amount of meat in their diets, according to a new study – and that number is expected to grow significantly.

Researchers at Dalhousie University and the University of Guelph surveyed 1,027 Canadians on their meat-eating habits and their opinions about carnivorism. Preliminary findings from the survey were made public Tuesday.

The survey found that an estimated 6.4 million Canadians are at least partially restricting their meat intake. About 48.5 per cent of respondents reported eating meat every day, with another 40 per cent doing so once or twice a week.
