Texas ag commissioner Sid Miller rips WeWork over 'anti-beef policy'

Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller didn't take kindly to the decision by WeWork -- headquartered in New York City! -- to discourage the consumption of meat by refusing to reimburse employees for meals that include pork, chicken or (shudder) beef.

"No beef in Texas? Really? You've got to be kidding me!" Miller told the Chronicle when apprised of the edict by WeWork, which has two coworking locations in Houston.

"I was very surprised and disappointed to learn of WeWork's anti-beef policy, but probably not as disappointed as their employees were when they found out about it. Even though their rationale is a bunch of bull, as a freemarket Republican, I certainly support their right to make it."

The commissioner said it's obvious who is benefiting most from the policy.
