    but the UK, where the mass media approach has been tried, has more than twice as many vegetarians per capita than the US.

    I wonder how much of this is due to immigration from South Asia, where the rates of vegetarianism are higher.

      this is a really good question, and I think one that is both necessary to a proper materialist understanding of the issue, as well as a good example of how culture is a material process.
