Frequently asked questions
How do I start eating less meat?
Start by noticing, not restricting: track which meals contain meat for a week, then swap the easiest ones first (lunches, then dinners). No Meat Today makes that a two-second daily habit — Naomi the cow simply asks whether you ate meat today.
What is a flexitarian diet?
A flexitarian is mostly vegetarian but still eats meat occasionally, on their own terms. There are no forbidden foods — just a lower meat frequency. It’s exactly the balance No Meat Today is designed to help you find.
How much meat per week is too much?
Health organizations suggest keeping red meat under about 350–500 g cooked per week and avoiding processed meat. Tracking your meals makes the number concrete instead of a guess.
Does eating less meat really help the climate?
Yes — meat has an outsized carbon and water footprint, and cutting a few meaty meals a week is one of the highest-impact personal changes. The app shows your progress as cows happily settling on your meatless planet.
Can it help me become vegetarian gradually?
That’s the core idea: you set your own pace, from one meat-free day a week to a fully plant-based month. No guilt when you slip — the trend is what matters.
