Fancy Living In A Meat-Free Apartment? This Company Will Pay Your Rent

A vegetarian company is offering to pay one month’s rent and provide a year’s supply of food for the people who move into two meat-free apartments in New York City. MorningStar Farms, owned by Kellogg’s, decided to help after news circulated that a vegan landlord was renting out two properties where tenants could not cook meat, though they could order takeout with animal products.

While some saw the offer as discriminatory, with concerns about violating discrimination policies, the apartments are owned by a landlord who has always preferred tenants to be vegan. The rise of all-vegan apartments reflects a growing trend in New York City, where vegan options are becoming more common and even the mayor promotes plant-based eating. With over 1,000 restaurants offering vegan options in the city, the demand for meat-free living spaces is on the rise.
