A Man in Conflict, Ignoring His Inner Vegetarian

From Amtrak to Chicken, Veal, Lamb and Bacon New England Daily Columnist Praises New England and it's Beaches

...the beaches of New England are better than those in California.”
— Llewellyn King, Host "White House Chronicle"
PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND, USA, March 8, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In his "Notebook" this week for New England Diary, a rapidly growing website devoted to goings on in New England and beyond, newenglanddiary.com, Llewellyn King laments his own hypocrisy when it comes to eating meat.

King, who also hosts the PBS show "White House Chronicle" and is a regular commentator on SiriusXM Radio, writes that he has eaten whole herds of cattle, pigs and sheep during his lifetime. While he feels a kindred closeness to the creatures he devours, he won't become a vegetarian.

One small exception: King admits his fondness for pigs is such that he eschews bacon.

His personal conflict is part of a broader piece on the increasing substitution of chicken for veal in Italian restaurant menus.

Elsewhere in his notebook, King takes aim at Amtrak for the deplorable conditions at Penn Station in New York and Union Station in Washington, D.C. By contrast, he crows about the small, well-designed station in Providence and says South Station in Boston needs more seats than eats.

In another notebook piece, King avers that the beaches of New England are better than those in California. He writes that it's not a matter of "sun, surf and sand tonnage" per bather, but rather the temperature of the water. New England, he says, has a "secret weapon: the Gulf Stream."
