No, I love to eat meat. But everything in moderation, though.

Sorry, but I can't live without a nice, juicy burger or a delicious rack of ribs. I believe humans were meant to be meat-eaters, I read somewhere that veggies are good for you and all, but prolonged periods without the nutrients from meats can shorten your lifespan or something like that. Dunno if it is true or not...

Can you eat wafer thin ham?
Most vegetarians I've met are Food Nazis.
And Vegans are TRUE vegetarians of course.

My thoughts exactly  I'm 19(and a half) and have been vegeterian since i was born. I went through a stage in high school when i started to eat meat but i'm choosing to blame peer-pressure for that. I am now a vegeterian once again, and i'm proud to be one. And no i'm no vegan, i couldn't survive without scrambled eggs! or cheese! I love cheese! For me, if it once walked, crawled, burrowed, flew or whatever, i won't go near it.

What kind of vegetables cost more than meat?

Sorry to bump in with my meat-eating arse, but I'd like to say something perhaps
I was thinking of vegetarism. Most vegetarists that I know don't eat meat because of the taste. The rest are more ideological, and hate the butcherin and raising animals in tight cages. I have this friend who didn't appreciate all that, but stopped eating meat because a vegetable diet made her feel a lot healthier.
Well as said, I wouldn't know about that. It's awful how expensive fruits and vegetables are in Finland. I couldn't be a vegetarian even if I wanted to, I just couldn't afford it. Also I personally find the taste of meat good
Anyway, I know there are people who make it a religion, and that annoys me a bit, as I feel attacked at times. But it's so common nowadays, especially among women, that I ask everyone if the eat meat or not. There's always someone who doesn't, so I'll prepare a vege-dish.
Then there's the vegan thing too, right? I can't remember which is which though

i've been a vegetarian for 3+ years now and wondered if any of you were 'like-minded'. It seems to me like i'm a rare breed...don't drink, don't smoke, or eat meat! I aint no hippy either...damn hippies...also, it seems like women are more likely than men to be vegetarian. is this true? I'm a 19 years young guy personally. Seems like all the veggies i've known were girls.
calling all vegetarian brethren!
