I think of Gen X as people born in the 70s or late 60s, so that age range is pretty much split between X and Boomers imo. They also mention later on that both generations are responsible for similar rates of meat consumption
I think both points still stand! Boomers go to the mid sixties which means the upper range of 50 to 65 covers boomers. However, the bottom range is definitely Gen X and the authors forgot you!
Having made the mistake of forgetting Gen X in a comment the other day my eyes have been opened.
Interesting that the article thinks 50 to 65 is the boomer generation. Poor Gen X will be forgotten until they are no more.
I’m definitely represented in this article. I basically don’t buy beef anymore despite being raised with it was the centerpiece of my diet.
I’ve learned to embrace plant-based alternatives generally find them as enjoyable if not more so than beef.
I don’t mind being forgotten, but I mind being lumped with the boomers.
Damn boomers can’t even keep to their own generation
Get off my decade!!

Can confirm. I’m Gen X and we buy beef by the cow from local farmers.
Best way to do it imo
That’s totally fair and it’s a great article, it just made me laugh. Thanks for sharing.

GenX goes up to 1982.
Boomers/Old GenX still act like Millennial, a generation in their 30s and 40s, is a word for children or young adults.
