As a UVic student living in residence, Meatless Mondays are well known for being an inconvenience for many students. The Cove's menu is already full of vegan options so the choice is still there for people who are vegan or just prefer a meat alternative. 

The Cove is the only viable option financially for those in residence because it is the only place where students can spend their meal plan money and get 50% off, while everywhere else that serves food on campus only provides a 5-10% discount using a onecard account.

Meatless Mondays also eliminate necessary protein for many people's daily quota, especially gym goers, not to mention the significant caloric difference between vegan and non-vegan options. This is especially difficult for those of us with higher caloric demands and the budget of a student.

"Meatless Mondays are an inconvenience for everyone as almost everything they offer is vegan anyways." - Ben Sinclair

"got chicken, it was tofu" - Jasper Halvorson

"Breakfast is decent but the rest of food is poor quality. There are far too many vegan items and meatless monday needs to be removed as it is a major inconvenience to everyone who isn’t vegan." - Kyle Phelps
