If you think it is going to be a temporary phase, then it is even less important which one you choose.

But, again, flesh and fowl are fungible. Will eliminating one actually reduce your consumption? Perhaps setting a quota for how much meat to buy on weekly grocery store trips, or going by days of the week (the most popular method in the world!) would be more effective.

The current plan is to eliminate meat from lunch and substitute veggie soups and some other kind of sandwhiches (we have a panini grill and I know a few good vegetarian options). Also, we're going to swap in a veggie pizza once per week as well. It may be a temporary phase, but that is not the goal for either of us.
