I do not mind vegetarians. It doesn't bother me if that is how you choose to live your life.

What sometimes grinds my gears is when veggie eaters try to attempt to convert me. It happens often, and we get into a fight about morals. We have different outlooks on life and we make our own decisions on life.

However, being a veggie is a good thing, especially if you feel better about yourself because of it.

TheLastFortnight- True that, I'm vegetarian because I don't like the way they kill and treat the animals. But if plants did feel pain, maybe we just can't hear their noises becuase it's too high for us to hear, or maybe they don't even have a voicebox at all I don't even think they have brains...

KikiBunny23-Geez, I've never seen it in real life, just on Earthlings and read up on it, those poor chickens =[

JoshAussie- That's great, have you found it hard at all. Or did your taste for meat just go away?

GregFromScotland- Thanks, I'm sure they don't appreciate being called veggies though, I know I sure don't. But you do have a point, trying to force things on other people isn't right. But that's good you don't bother them if they don't bother you.

Has anyone seen EARTHLINGS? I have, it's horrific


Potato's are really tasty...

I honestly don't see the problem of being called a "veggie". It's not even a derogatory term. I just said veggie because it is easier to type.

Yeah i guess it did, I was a big meat eater before i started to be vegetarian. Its strange, i enjoyed eating meat but i guess i realised i didnt have to eat it to survive and i like Vegetarian food (Iv got a friend whos hare krishna) and they would always give me awesome vegetarian food. But anyway, i decided id rather be vegetarian than for people to kill animals. Now when i see the meat in a supermarket or a butchers it makes me sick. Its kind of dissapointing to kill things just to eat. But i dont hold anything against anyone else. but im happy with my choice.

It's mostly the tone people use it in, but yeah it is easier to type, I admit I've been tempted to use 'Veggie' instead of vegetarian.

Awesome, most of the vegetarian food I've had tasted really bad xp But I made myself eat it or my mum would kill me
That's strange halfway through last year (2008) I went vegetarian that's about 5-6 months and I really loved meat before hand. My reasons are the same. And I feel queasy when I see meat in the shops and such. And the smell is just...disturbing..
Hehe that's heaps coincidental xp We both in Australia too, unless your name is like that because you like Australia *shrugs*

I don't eat red meat, fish and chicken only. Can't bare the thought of eating a mammal.


What are the young people of today coming to?
If anything.
