World Vegetarian Day, 01 October

With the emergence of multiple diets, health smoothies, spinach juice (Green Goddess from Crussh anyone?) and Joe Wicks’ love of ‘midget trees’ – we are now following what our Mums preached to us and are (trying) to eat more vegetables.
We are a meat-loving nation though the amount of meat we’re eating is falling and we’re actually not as meat heavy as a lot of other countries.
An average UK resident eats 84.2kg of meat each year, putting it 30th in the world of the countries to consume the least meat.
Unsurprisingly, the US eats the most, with 120kg per person being eaten each year. It also has the highest obesity rate.
Bangladesh and India top the list, with the average person consuming only 4kg and 4.4kg respectively of meat per year.
