The reason i ask is that there seems to be a lot more Vegetarians now days.
And I know i eat a lot less meat than before.
A whole lot less if you consider seafood as seafood and not "meat".
It's completely true. You know that saying "a chicken in every pot?" That's because meat used to be expensive.

Per capita meat consumption was 150lbs/person in the 19th century, 200 lbs by 1960.
