My parents force me to eat meat, but I don't like the taste of it. I don't really mind if other people eat it, but I just don't like the taste...I don't know.
I manage to get by for long periods of time without my parents noticing I haven't eaten meat. As soon as I go off to college I'll be full-fledged vegetarian.
I do not want to know myself. I do not want to be myself. I know better, so I will strive to be better.
I was a vegetarian for a year up until a few months ago when my mum said i wasn't allowed anymore,but now i'm vegetarian again after much persuasion :)
The first few months were hard,but it's easy now.

Well, I am. But I had meat yesterday, for the first time in ten years. Sausage sandwich.
I haven't had meat in so long, and decided to 'give it a go'. It's not going to be a regular occurance.
Doctors piss me off...but they are learning a proper vegan diet is very very healthy indeed even more healthy than an animal based diet.
Aye doctors wind me up too, people forget GPs are just GPs [I don't mean that in an offencive way] and being human they're subjected to all the over-the-top "You must eat meat / you must eat dairy to be healthy!!!111oneone" advertising as well as the fact they are GENEREAL practitioners without specific training [actually, do they need any training at all in nutrition?] nutrition.
For instance my old friend was vegetarian, she went to the doctors, she was anemic. He told her this was because she was vegetarian, and told her to eat meat. The reason she was anemic wasn't because she didn't eat meat, it was because she didn't eat ANYTHING except for chips, crisps, chocolate and pizza. I'm not even exagerating...
Anyway, I've been vegetarian for 5 years, and have recently become a vegan.
Hunger only for a taste of justice, hunger only for a world of truth, for all that you have is your soul.
I've never eaten meat. My mum brought me up veggie but said i had the choice to eat meat if i wanted. She brought me up this way for ethical reasons. Because i've never had i obviously don't crave it but to be honest the thought of eating an animal makes me want to vomit anyway. What right do we as the 'superior race' to kill other species for food, I and hundreds of thousands of others are living proof that we don't need meat to live. With regard to having difficulty giving stuff up, i don't really experience this. For example, as soon as i discover that some product or other is tested on animals, regardless of how much i like it or how regularly i use it i just give it up, full stop and never really think of it again.

This is why I love you (and for other reasons too)

Reason: better wording
I am a vegetarian but not for moral reasons. I just dont really like the taste of meat... I also personally think that I wouldnt be able to eat meat for moral reasons and then wear leather shoes or whatever... Just my view! Fair play to ya if your a vegetarian for ethical reasons tho.
I don't think there's anything wrong with eating animals, it's how we got to the top of the food chain, we've been doing it since the daaaaawn of time. It's a fact of life. Ofcourse, there's nothing wrong with not eating animals as well.
I'm never going to be a vegetarian. And I'm never going to want to. I don't agree with battery farming and I eat as much free range as I can, and that's as animal friendly as I'm going to get when it comes to food.
I used to have a friend who decided to go vegetarian and she constantly preached about how meat is horrible and basically making me out to be satan because I ate it, she basically thought herself superior because she was 'smart' enough to see she didn't eat meat. It was pretty pathetic but I've met a lot of vegetarians like that too, although I've met a lot who aren't.
I duno the point of telling me stupid story there. :/
To the pescatarians (Still eat fish) why is it ok to eat a fish but not a chicken? They're both animals. That is something I just cannot get my head around.

I agree. It's just a bit hypocriticalto be honest.
well i'm a Vegi-Head, I'm not pescatarian because i'm allergic to seafood, i've been a vegitarian for either 4 or 5 years i can't remember, the person that had the hardest time with me changing my diet was my mum, she couldn't understand it, hehe
so yeah, i like to think or myself as a big hippy, i don't eat meat for ethical reasons, why murder something just to eat it, there are so many alternatives out there.
I've been a vegetarian for 9 years, don't get the temptation to eat meat at all anymore
The shortness of life, I keep saying, makes everything seem pointless when I think about the longess of death.
When I look ahead, all I can see is my final demise. And they say not for seventy or eighty years.
And I say, Maybe you, but me,
I'm already gone.
PM me if you ever need to talk, im always here to listen/try and help
