Vegetarian Society Letter From 1933 Describes Hog Roast As 'Grave Offense'

plantbasednews.org

The Vegetarian Society called on Bristol's Mayor to cancel a public ox roast in 1933, almost 100 years ago, to avoid causing "grave offence"

For extra context on why this article brings up vegetarians it is because veganism didn’t exist before 1944.
