It might be a "Dutch" thing, or maybe down to me always having spoken to my 2 lads about politics and its importance. The eldest is an ominvore who eats red meat maybe 3 or 4 times a week, The rest of the time its vegetarian for him, much like his folks (I made onion soup with red wine and port yesterday and have enough left over for today). He is well versed in things internationally and takes his time in deciding who should get his cross on the ballot paper. The youngest is a full blown vegan and, like his brother, can explain his voting choice very eloquently.
