Finding AGR-4.2
Primary record According to the second edition of Dietary Goals (December 1977), meat and egg producers requested additional Senate hearings in 1977. The second edition then replaced the first edition's "decrease consumption of meat and increase consumption of poultry and fish" with "decrease consumption of animal fat, and choose meats, poultry and fish which will reduce saturated fat intake." Senator Dole wrote that he was "pleased that the second edition deletes language from the first edition recommending 'eat less meat'."
