Witchaywoman: I decided to go vegetarian for lots of reasons. The main one is that I heard somewhere that cows eat enough crops to feed 17 people a year. Also, I was working at an Arbys at the time. I was the sandwich maker and just slicing all that meat and thinking about how much of it Americans consume is scary. Then there was the thing about people cutting down acres of rain forest to herd cattle who trample the ground flat so that nothing else can grow there.


And in introducing a new food that their digestive systems aren't equipped to handle, the people there are doing grave harm to their health.

Interesting, Witchay...I do find it intriguing to learn what has drawn people to a certain path.

Meet the world's top destroyer of the environment. It is not the car, or the plane,or even George Bush: it is the cow. Go on paste the whole thing:

YES! (With the occasional exception of pheasant and raspberry sauce...Well, alright then, AND a really good bit of hallibut with butter and pepper...In fact come to think of it, a nice roast leg of lamb with mint sauce goes down quite well of a Sunday afternoon too...)

Serious reply:
There are many "vegetarians" out there who THINK they're vegetarians when they're not. They have no idea that the gelatine in most children's sweets, yogurts, puddings, vitamin pills and many other already toxic so-called "food products" on sale worldwide is the remains of animal carcasses scraped off the floors of slaughter houses! If these vegetarians could see what this shit actually is they'd puke their entire stomachs up!

Thank you, Sam. Hey, I feed my dogs organic chicken because of discovering what toxins are in dog food and what comes out of the rendering plants. I'll add the gelatine information to my internal database. And vitamin pills and herbal supplements are the only source I'd have for this for personal intake...but I'm not a vegetarian. Yet. wine

I am a vegeaterian.

'Type O's need meat, as do type B's and some type AB's.'


I am type O blood, but have no intention of eating any more meat than I already do, which is not much. I did do a lot of reading up on vegetarianism and the body's requirements to make sure I was getting what I needed.

My doctor has no concerns with my health.

druidess6308: I believe that plants do feel pain. They are sentient, living beings just like you and me. This has been the biggest reason for being vegetarian I've heard before from the few I've known, is not killing animals because they're living beings...but it makes no sense to me when so is a vegetable or an herb. And so is a piece of quartz. Three kingdoms of life: animal, vegetable and mineral.

And I'm training for it to be my job to help guide others to eat right, but I do my best to refrain unless asked for my help.

One thing I'm learning is that not everyone thrives on a vegetarian diet. I'm a type A blood type, so I should actually be a vegetarian, though I can tolerate poultry and fish. Type O's need meat, as do type B's and some type AB's. So, it's not the ideal way to eat for all, and my training is towards helping people eat for optimal health and their individual needs.

The more I study nutrition and how what we eat affects our bodies, the more fascinated I am with this subject. I do want to make it clear, however, that I'm not in here to tell anyone that they're wrong, but out of curiosity. I have no desire to offend anyone.



sorry to break it to you but pain is a warning system that requires a brain to process info and a nervous system to transmit said info

plants no have brain nor nerves....thus plant no have pain !!!!

I'm committed to the cause,I've been a vego for 31 years, I live close to nature,don't eat any thing with animal by products in it, I wear vegan footwear.Education is what's needed,once you become aware there's no turning back.I'm more spiritually aware because I'm a vego. It's all about energy and different vibrations,(you are what you eat) peace
