If you are going to move the prison population to vegetarian diets, you also need to account for things they may or may not be getting, such as vitamin B12 or vitamin D. It is much easier to feed a group of people a healthy, balanced diet if you use meat products or have the sense to give everyone a good-grade multi-vitamin to be sure. Unfortunately, that makes it harder in the US because of the lax laws surrounding supplements.
- greglindahl 9y agoI would be the first person to say, as a vegetarian, that forcing everyone in prison to be a vegetarian would be wrong. But that's not the idea that I was responding to: the idea I was responding to is the notion that vegetarians are starving. By all means, take a vitamin if you need one.
