Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Common house meal prices

[KAREN A CARLSON (kcarlson2]

I’m interested in Catya’s report that veg eaters pay less. It’s my impression 
that protein selections that are non meat are as expensive or more, e.g., 
locally made walnut burgers.   (I realize that we aren’t exploiting the protein 
in some grains, etc). Any research you can point to?
