no need to criticise people for their diets..
some people think it's morally wrong to eat meat. some do it for religious reasons. some do it for, yes, health reasons. it's subjective; and theres no reason to insult vegeterians/vegans.

^^ it can be, but a lot of the meat sold now-a-days isnt.
with that said, i am a "vegan." but i hate using that word, so i just say i dont eat meat or dairy products.

Unless you eat them alive or something, but that's not morally wrong, that's just fucking awesome.

i really fail to see how eating animals is morally wrong. it's not a moral issue; morals imply that something is right/wrong for everyone, and as with most cases, it isn't a black/white issue... it's more of a private ethical issue. i see nothing wrong if you decide to eat meat, but personally, i find the idea to be disgusting.

to clear up my post, i am not going back to vegan; i'm going back to vegetarianism/"veggie."
i do it because there is so much shit injected into american meat that it's just disgusting. beef and pork especially. i can't afford organic meat, so i just won't eat it. same with milk. i drink soy milk. also, high cholesterol runs in my family, and there isn't any cholesterol in plants.
and if you're MEANT to eat meat... when i went back to being omnivorous, i got sick. because my body stopped producing the enzyme to digest meat. same happened to my friend. if i was meant to eat it, then why would my body do that?

Your logic doesn't make sense. My body desires meat and produces the enzyme to digest it, so doesn't that mean it is supposed to?

i dont know where you buy your meat, but when i cook mine and eat it afterwards, it really doesnt taste like its been "injected". im healthy, so i dont see a problem. healthy ignorance is bliss? i guess its your choice. your body wouldnt have stopped producing the enzyme if you hadnt chose to stop eating it in the first place.

jamie is vegan and has been for more than 12 years or so. caralee is a vegetarian.
people eat or not eat whatever the fuck they feel is right for themselves. stop being mean and judgemental and critical of other people's lifestyles, whether you eat meat or not. i'm a vegan. but i'd never tell meat eaters that they should stop eating animal products, as long as they don't tell me that i should.

I have been a vegetarian for 5+ years now, and I do it for multiple reasons:
-Would you hunt and kill a cow, rip it up, and cook it every single time you wanted a hamburger? I couldn't. Nor a pig or chicken or turkey. -so many additives nowadays its repulsive -my body no longer produces the right enzymes to digest meat, i only vomit it up. -animal cruelty. if animals werent raised to die, id feel differently. -i think everyone should be allowed to eat whatever the hell they want, and i respect carnivores, as long as they respect me.
