Some supporters aim to pressure prices by shifting to meatless meals, while others doubt any lasting price impact. Stores in Council Bluffs offer hamburgers to participating women, and wholesalers report declines in demand and some layoffs as prices rise and supplies tighten. Leaders say the movement reflects widespread frustration with food costs and prompts calls for consumer action.
