BUT if you follow PETA's version of vegetarians then drinking milk and eating eggs is "supporting animal cruelty". What I'm saying is PETA is against farming animals for food products.interspark said:ok, vegans, i can understand being mal-nourished but it hard to be unhealthy on a vegetarian diet, think about it, the only source of fat in the diet is dairy products so obesity is almost impossible, protein comes from eggs and milk (the latter also being a source of clacium) and fruit gives you vitamins! im a veggie and i feel fantastic 24/7!Samuel Cook said:When I think about it, I've only come across two vegetarians in my life, and I've met a fair amount of people, so it wouldn't surprise me if it was a small percentage..
I could never be vegetarian. Firstly, I like being somewhat healthy, and I can't see how vegetarians can be, although I really don't know that much about it. Secondly, I love the taste of meat. Oh and thirdly, I don't feel bad knowing that I'm eating slaughtered animals.
Why? What have they done to you?Flamezdudes said:Nah, Bacon forever man. BACON, FOREVER. And Vegeterians kinda annoy me unless its a medical problem.
i think its OK to take produce from an animal if you deserve it by providing the animal with a comfortable life, in other words, only if its free range, battery farms? i think the owners are scum. i keeep my own chickens and we get at least 2/3 eggs a day, i dont feel guilty taking them because i know the chickens have a great lifeBurningsok said:BUT if you follow PETA's version of vegetarians then drinking milk and eating eggs is "supporting animal cruelty".

lol you have to love it when dumb people pull statistics directly out their arse.interspark said:Ive been thinking lately about something my dumb ass, spoiled brat cousin said the last time i saw him, what he said was this "only 1% of the worlds population are vegetarians" (hes not actually smart enough to use those big words, its just how id have said it). Obviously this is a load of crap hes just pulled out of thin air for no obvious reason, but it got me wondering, just what is the veggie to non-veggie ratio?
edit: there! i added an option for bloody so called "semi-veggies" happy now?
(oh and if your reading this gunjack65, yes, well done, you knew it was me)
well it shouldnt be, i am a veggieArachon said:Oh, and OP, you'll find that this forum is very biased against vegetarianism, we've had quite some er... "scandals" involving threads about vegetarianism.
