James May Says Eating Meat Will Be Seen As ‘Primitive’ By Future Generations

Former Top Gear star James May believes that future generations will see our current meat consumption as primitive, advocating for vegetarian and vegan cooking. In his new cooking show Oh Cook!, he has dedicated an episode to meat-free cooking and proudly presented his vegan burger. May suggests that giving up meat is a privilege and predicts that eating animals may be seen as outdated in the future.

May has previously discussed the ethics of meat consumption, stating that eating animals is unsustainable and sharing his experience of feeling unwell after trying vegetarianism. His views on meat differ from those of his former Top Gear co-star Jeremy Clarkson, who has been vocal in his support of meat consumption. Despite their differing opinions, May continues to promote plant-based eating and believes that it will become more mainstream in the future.
