I've actually been a vegetarian my whole life, but all I'm able to eat is turkey. That's only one meat though, I still consider myself a vegetarian.


Well, if you eat meat you are not really vegetarian.
Still cool that you don't eat most meat though :mrgreen:

I've tried being a vegetarian a few times, but meat is too tempting for me haha. I think one day I'll eventually be able to commit myself to being a vegetarian, though. I definitely respect people who are able to commit themselves to it!

Aha! Well just thought I'd say I'm vegetarian and have been for a little over a year now. I'd like to become vegan but wow...I don't think I could.

I'm vegetarian. ^_^ I do it for the animals, plus my dad is one as well. And if you think about it, meat is, well, gross. I've been one for about six months now, and it hasn't been the least bit easy. XDD I couldn't be a vegan. Eggs and dairy = love. And it's not like their hurting the animal. -Shurgs-

I'm a meat-eater, but my aunt, and two of my best friends are vegetarians. I don't think I could give up my eggs and Spam. D':

It actually does hurt the animals in some way. Do you know how they treat these animals? Here is some videos (may not be right for younger viewers)

Yeah, when I was only vegetarian (still ate eggs and dairy) I thought it was okay to eat them because it didn't hurt the animal, but then I found out that it actually does, so I went vegan.

you know, there ARE humane dairy farmers, they're not ALL hurting the animals, even though I'm not vegetarian/vegan my family always checks out were we get our animal products from.

This is true. I do truely feel bad for the abused animals, but even if you become vegan, you cannot stop other abuse, such as animal testing and other abuse. Besides, eggs help make up for a lot of lost protein and milk provides a ton of good stuff. ^_^
I'm not saying not to be vegan or that I don't support it, but I just know I could never handle it. ^_^
