All cows die. So better a quick bolt through the head than some long lingering death from a grass eating condition.

That's... kinda.. morbid. Lol

That's a really healthy diet. I bet you lost weight and have more energy now than ever before because you're getting more fruits and vegetables in your system, as well as the lean protein of the fish.

Cool. And don't feel bad about not being able to give up sushi. I can't be a full on Vegan because I simply can't give up cheese. Lol! Vegetarian is good for me. 😛

I've decided that I can't stand the idea of any of god's beautiful creatures suffering just so that I can eat. That's why I'm eating meat, and only meat, from now on.

See, meat is dead when you eat it. Fruit, on the other hand, is alive and presumably feeling pain when you take that first bite. Jesus, for all we know about plant nervous-systems, it's feeling terrible pain right up until you eat it down to the core.

And as part of my all-meat diet, I'm also going to consume as much veal as I possibly can. Veal is young when it's slaughtered; it hasn't suffered as much as an adult cow.

Does this make me a vegetarian?

Yes, it does. 😀

Really, I do.

Oh god I can't even imagine being vegan I'd be so lost without cheese hahahaha. And plus it can be super expensiveee even though some of the most delicious dishes I've had were vegan, those bitches can cook! Yummmmm.

Lol. I know, they're awesome. I managed to partially give up milk. I'll only use it in cakes or mac and cheese. But for my cereals and general drinking, I've deferred to Almond Milk. It's awesome. I'm not lactose intolerant, but those who are should definitely try it. 🙂

When I was pregnant and since my husband's been away I've been an ovo-pescetarian. I can go without beef and pork without a problem. Admittedly I DO have a soft spot for soy sauce chicken, duck, lap cheong (chinese sausage) and bacon, but there's no way I could give up fish or eggs. I love sashimi and baked goods and most of the latter contain eggs. Heck, Shad is the epitome of my egg and fish love. The roe is incredible when sauced and served over rice. Other than that, I try to limit the red meat in the house for dietary and sustainability concerns. Cows and pigs are inefficient when you compare their output compared to feed requirements. It doesn't mean that I'm not partial to a chuck eye medium rare and seasoned with soy sauce, pepper and garlic every once in awhile.

Also, I second the love of almond milk. I get the vanilla flavor and it's EPIC straight or when used to make hot chocolate in the winter. I find the cocoa to be more creamy, as if marshmallows have already been melted in.

I'm a strict vegetarian and have been for about 8 years now. By 'strict' I mean that I don't eat meat or fish, and for me there's really little difference between the two. In the first year, I continued eating tuna, mainly because I felt concerned that I wouldn't be getting enough high-quality protein in my diet. I can now vouch for the fact that this isn't an issue - I'm a weight-training/bodybuilding nut, and it's certainly possible to get all the protein you need without recourse to meat or fish, despite what some people would claim. After years of chicken breasts and steaks, I've now learned that hard training, and judicious use of milk/egg protein, are what counts. I've tried going full vegan, but can't make it work for me as yet. I often use soya milk in place of dairy, but haven't yet managed to get cheese and eggs out of my diet. From a purely hedonistic viewpoint, I also have to say that I never enjoyed food so much: my g/f and I take a serious interest in cooking now, and think far more clearly about making fantastic meals than we did when the standard meat/2 veg template was an option. I've gained muscle, lost fat and become healthier and happier since cutting meat out of my diet. I would have done it anyway, but that was an added bonus. It's helped that there are so many great meat-free products in the UK (the vegetarian society was established in UK in 1848) and so many excellent veg-friendly restaurants - Chinese especially. Yes, occasionally I miss seafoood (my personal favourite) but that's as nothing compared to how good I feel about not eating meat. Of course I continue to find flippant comments from meat-eaters about this subject endlessly hilarious. Strike now for more creme-brulee.
