OPINION: Your canine crusader had a good old giggle over the reaction to a recent survey, which found that more than 70% of men in Australia say they'd rather cut their life expectancy by up to 10 years than ditch meat.
The survey, commissioned by No Meat May, also found that 47% of Aussie blokes saw eating meat as a 'masculine undertaking'.
