All one needs to do is look at their web site. Tony === PCRM is against dairy and meat. Anti-milk and anti-meat headlines feature prominently in their web site. In the past, they funded the law suit against the Atkins diet. http://www.pcrm.org/ PCRM is against testing on animals: http://www.pcrm.org/about/index.html PCRM sensationalizes experimental animal research to rally against animal testing. Here they target the March of Dimes: http://www.pcrm.org/resch/charities/mod.html PCRM advocates a vegan diet: http://www.pcrm.org/health/veginfo/vsk/VSK1.html " A vegetarian menu is a powerful and pleasurable way to achieve good health. The vegetarian eating pattern is based on a wide variety of foods that are satisfying, delicious, and healthful. Vegetarians avoid meat, fish, and poultry. Those who include dairy products and eggs in their diets are called lacto-ovo vegetarians. Vegans (pure vegetarians) eat no meat, fish, poultry, eggs, or dairy products. While there is a considerable advantage to a lacto-ovo vegetarian pattern, vegan diets are the healthiest of all, reducing risk of a broad range of health concerns.
