To the editor:

Thank you for Dan Schneider’s informative article about the many reasons to opt for vegetarian meals (“Vegetarian diet offers health benefits,” Dec. 28).

It’s true that finding meat-free foods is easier than ever, and as millions of Americans can attest to, giving up meat doesn’t mean skimping on flavor. Rather, it simply means choosing the cruelty-free versions of our favorite foods. The New Year offers the perfect opportunity to resolve to eat a healthier and more humane diet.
