Hospitality Beyond Morality
The truth behind Patina Group’s pretty plates is the prioritization of animal exploitation on their menus. Their “luxury” dining experience comes at a cost to animals, the planet, and you.
Animal agriculture is a leading driver of animal suffering and planetary pollution. It is also a major contributor to the spread of zoonotic diseases and antibiotic resistance, and some animal products won’t seem so luxurious when you learn what’s inside.
Tell Patina Group:
It’s time to do better for animals, the planet, and customers. Commit to plant-forward menus today.
Polluting the planet is NOT upscale. Patina Group’s parent company, Delaware North, has failed to meaningfully incorporate sustainable, plant-based foods in their environmental stewardship plans.
Animal suffering is NOT luxury. Nationwide, nearly 99% of farmed animals come from factory farms. Yet, Patina Group’s restaurant menus rely heavily on animal products.
“Fine dining” is incompatible with infected-udder-induced white blood cells and fecal bacteria, and animals loaded up with antibiotics.* These features are typical in U.S. beef and dairy, regardless of Patina Group’s specific suppliers.
*These issues are not known to be harmful to human health.
