Meat-Eater or Veggi?

I haven't eaten beef, pork, lamb etc in decades, and I don't care for milk or eggs either. You won't get any moral argument from me though, I just like to eat food that is lean and clean, I don't care for heavy foods like I encountered in Northern Europe, the Japanese diet is more to my liking. The end result is I am in excellent physical condition for my age and have more energy than most. I also avoid caffiene, nicotine, commercial sodas made with corn syrup, fast food, packaged foods with infinite shelf-life and heavy consumption of alcohol. None of this takes any effort or attitude, I just don't enjoy putting garbage in my body, even as a kid I didn't care for pork or heavy dishes made with mystery meat. I just eat what I enjoy eating, thats all.

Man is part of the natural world. So . . . isn't that natural? Doesn't that kind of answer your own question? What else would I mean by 'acting on our nature'? Maybe we're getting our wires crossed. Do you mean that although eating meat is natural for man, it is nevertheless wrong on a moral level? If that is what you meant, then I disagree.

(The video is not really on topic - the association is merely by the name of the song, and because it's an interesting video that deserves to be plugged in a prog forum.

So I can't vote as i am an omnivore as is natural. I've made the options much more broad so you can feel better making a choice and not be so picky.  In that case option 1.
