    I'm doing the whole vegetarian thing again...I stopped for a while becaue my mom pretty much made me eat meat and my uncle made fun of me every time he saw me eating veggies while everyone else was eating steaks, but now I'm just gonna say fuck it, might even get a job so I can buy veggies if my grandma won't get them for me.

    I would love to be vegetarian if I could, for health reasons alone, but I like meat too much. I have cut my meat consumption considerably, though.

    Isn't that what most veggies miss? Or at least the ones in the UK. I don't know whether bacon is the same everywhere else.

    I was a veggie for a while but then I was forced into meat eating again. I don't think I'll ever do it again.

    Pesco/pollo vegetarianism", "pescetarianism" or "semi-vegetarianism" are neologisms coined to describe certain lifestyles of restricted diet. Most commonly, these include the practice of not eating certain types of meat (most commonly "red" meat such as beef, pork, lamb) while allowing others, such as seafood. There are usually no restrictions on non-flesh animal products such as dairy, eggs, or leather. Those observing such a diet often do so for health reasons although many do practice for ethical or religious reasons.

    I'd like to be vegetarian for health reasons but we're going to eventually pass away regardless. Is it better to enjoy BBQ spare ribs and marinated chicken or eat veg and add 10 years in the retirement home?

    Hmmmmm

    the best thing to do for people like rat...

    is to make meat a side dish and not a main meal. it makes a lot of a difference.. ive been doing it for a while and it makes you feel a lot better without having to totally give up meat *i love it too much myself*

    i couldnt give up meat. sure cant.

    but i enjoy fruts and veggies too. if i have a salad, usually its got bacon bits and ham and cheese on it. loaded.

    and to whoever said they like taco bell, eewwwww. thats the worst food in the world. the only time i ever eat taco bell is if im really drunk and thats usually the only place open around me at 230 in the morning. even then, you gotta use the drive thru. and thenext day is the worst feeling ever in my stomach. one time i ate taco bell when i was blacked out, and knew it the next day cuz of how my stomach acted and how raunchy my farts smelled.

    im hungry for some munchies now.

    Been vegetarian for about 5 years now.. live with my non-vegetarian boyfriend and damn, meat smells good! Damn my principles! Hehe.. nah.. maybe one day, but being a vegetarian is just right for me somehow. I've become more lenient over the years, especially if I'm eating at someones home and they tried their best.. then I just politely pick out the meat. Before I refused to eat anything that had been close to meat, but now respect and politeness is more important.. for the animal it doesn't really matter anyway, it's dead already and someone else can eat the pieces I pick out so.. no prob.

    Been a vegetarian for about 34 years, since I was a munchkin; but I will "experiment" with most foods with some absolute exceptions. I had a little turkey last thanksgiving and may have a small amount of meat once every few years; tuna or some form of fish maybe three times a year or so; usually take small amounts, chew very well and combine with raw garlic or similar. I have found that my consciousness and body functioning (don't necessarily distinguish these) changes in an obvious way when I eat; and when I eat meat the change is, well, hard to describe but very odd. And it tells me to be very, very careful about eating critter in general. I believe that oftentimes our intuition is providing us with detailed information that is objectively substantial, that is real, and that has not been, yet, or will never be, scientifically established as being so. In my opinion there are benefits to eating meat and these benefits are far outweighed by not necessarily obvious detriments.
