Farmers have been left furious after a rural council called on staff to eat less meat.
XO There's no denying that the word online makes life easier for people to live. Even the must-play casino games have been developed into online gaming formats that are easily accessible to anyone.
They want Pembrokeshire council to apologise after an internal newsletter urged staff to cut back on meat and dairy, saying a plant-based diet was healthier.
The council said it was part of a series of tips on saving the planet.
One of the county's many farmers, Charles George, of Wolf's Castle, called it a "kick in the teeth".
"They have got it completely wrong," he added.
"They should be out there encouraging people to eat local, to support local businesses, instead of having some vegan food that might have come from anywhere in the world."
NFU Cymru has called for a meeting with the council's chief executive.
Pembrokeshire NFU vice-chairman Simon Davies said he reacted with disbelief to the memo and was disappointed by it.
