Are you a Vegetarian? Vegan? Or do you eat meat?



I am a vegetarian, don't miss meat at all anymore, plus i have become a lot more healthy from it and lost some weight.



Discuss.
 
I could easily turn vegetarian. I'm not a huge fan of red meats, but I must say I love chicken.
 
I understand the reasoning behind vegetarianism, but I'd find it hard to turn vegetarian.

Agreed, assuming that chicken and beef are considered types of meats.

Healthier for a carnivorous creature not to eat what nature intended it to?

Meats have nutrients and proteins that your body needs. You just need to eat the right meats and cook it the right way if you are worried about health factors.
 
No, I am not a vegetarian and I don't plan on becoming one... I don't see why I should give something I enjoy up.
 
I can't stand being a vegetarian if you have an asian mother cooking meat delights everyday.
 
Any diet--vegan or carnivorous-can be unhealthy if in the extreme. When I eat, however, I love to feel veins in my teeth. Give me a good steak, medium well, smothered in mushrooms and onions, and I'm a contented Princess.
 
I am vegetarian, have been for almost half of my life. But it's not something I preach to other people, each to their own is what I say!
 
Nope. Do not plan on it either. I believe animals have been placed on earth to provide us with food.

I dont go around telling vegetarians that they should eat meat so why should the come and tell me I shoudlnt?
 
I totally agree Nebulous! My fiance eats meat and I happily cook it for him. He totally respects my views as a veggie, and I totally respect his as a meat eater.
 
You're my kind of vegan!

Not in real life, but on forums, I have encountered a few radicals...

Anyways, I would go half way vegetarian and only eat chicken and fish if I were on a diet.
 
I cant stand the radicals as they give people like me a bad name! It's amazing how many people wanna argue with a veggie. I try not to tell people in real life but it usually comes out pretty soon, when someone is encouraging me to buy a bacon sandwich on a Friday (most work places buy in sandwiches like that every Friday) or when they are offering me a sweet which I cant eat cos of gelatine.

I never, ever argue with anyone about being veggie. If the person wont stop trying to make me discuss being veggie, despite me telling them I wont talk about it, I walk away.
 
Vegetarian since 1996, vegan since 2017. My take is this: I don't eat animal product-my choice, my business, you eat animal product-your choice, your business.
 
Vegetarians don't eat meat or fish but eat eggs, cheese and cream and drink milk. Vegans don't consume any of them.
 
I've been drinking bovine lactose my whole life so far, and I'm not going to stop. Not going to turn vegetarian, though.
