LBC's O'Brien takes the veggie challenge

LBC's James O'Brien is to turn vegetarian for two weeks and will chronicle his attempts to stay away from meat on his show.

The mid-morning presenter, who professes to be an avid meat fan and has been outspoken about vegetarianism, has challenged himself to be a healthy veggie for a fortnight.

Marinated tofu and beetroot juice, and other vegetarian delights, will be delivered to O'Brien live on air.

The presenter will also be keeping listeners updated on his attempts via his blog at lbc.co.uk.
