Vegetarians have raised the voice of veg options.

Vegetarian students and 24 parents filed a constitutional petition, "Please specify the vegetarian option in the school lunch law." More than 500 supporters and 30 groups joined together.

The vegetarian option is the right to choose a non-meat menu from public meals such as schools, the military, hospitals, and prisons.

They said, "The guarantee of vegan options is linked to freedom of conscience, self-determination, health rights, and environmental rights." I emphasized.

It also mentions that excessive meat consumption is threatening the global environment, such as causing a climate crisis, and an international trend that encourages vegetarianism.
