Vegetarian Option Anyone?

)
WaterWizards is one third vegetarian (tres trendy). This quick fact from our friends at Waterfootprint.org might get you thinking about going vegetarian : The production of one kilogram of beef requires 15 thousand litres of water (93% green, 4% blue, 3% grey water footprint). There is a huge variation around this global average. The precise footprint of a piece of beef depends on factors such as the type of production system and the composition and origin of the feed of the cow. [download report] The water footprint of a 150-gram soy burger produced in the Netherlands is about 160 litres. A beef burger from the same country costs about 1000 litres.

(only cool because its like a little bit of Cape Town in Joburg
