I'm not a vegetarian, but close enough. I stopped eating meat (red meat and chicken) when I was 12 years. I still eat fish, milk etc., and I don't think I'll stop eating them. :>

I'm about 90% ovo-vegan. I eat meat only about once a week. Apart from that I eat no dairy products whatsoever (lactose issue). I do eat eggs, but without the yokes, and occassional seafood.

Japanese vegetarian food remains one of my favorite things to chew on. Tempura, udon, soba, mochi, etc... all good all the time.

Not really, if you look at it from an angle which says you're gonna kill everyone around you and eat them

hehe, there is a girl in my class that is a vegitarian. It is really weird cuz the only time she eats meat is on her pizza, for peperoni and italian sasuage


the real truth is often the one we dont want to hear
i am the tears that fall, you are the blood on my skin, we are mingled forever again, here we stand, hand in hand, but ill let go when my time has come, time for u to fly alone

It can be hard for a vegetarian in japan because many things that look like they would be vegetarian aren't.
I bought a vegetable sandwich & it has a line of meat in the bottom.
Good for me, a shock to vegetarians.

I'm a vegetarian for a few years now and it didn't/doesn't harm my body, for example my blood values are normal. I started after having seen a video of how animals are treated (lol), but now it is a mental thing, like I want to have a "clean" body and mind (the same with not taking drugs). But its for myself and I don't regard meat eaters as dirty or cruel people


Unhappy is he to whom the memories of childhood bring only fear and sadness. Wretched is he who looks back upon lone hours in vast and dismal chambers with brown hangings and maddening rows of antique books, or upon awed watches in twilight groves of grotesque, gigantic, and vine-encumbered trees that silently wave twisted branches far aloft. Such a lot the gods gave to me - to me, the dazed, the disappointed, the barren, the broken.

I've been a vegetarian for about 4 years but people seem to think that if you eat fish then you aren't a vegetarian?
I guess if that's the case then I'm not vegetarian but to me fish is seafood, not meat.
