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.

i tried the whole no meat thing for a month and all it made me was cranky.. all my friends and my wife said that I needed meat to survive cause if not I was going to kill everyone around me.... odd huh?

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

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:rolleyes:

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.
