^ No, and he doesn't have a rational justification either, he still calls him self a vegetarian though, that's wacky enough.

A colleague of mine is a vegetarian who eats burgers and sausages. Over the years I've learnt to stop correcting him on that.

In general I eat more veggies and grains than meet but I'm not vegetarian. I'm trying to be vegan by 25, but I don't know if I'll ever be able to cut cheese and hamburgers out of my life.

For the protein, or the fat, or the taste, or the convenience, or because plants are living things too?

I think you need to look at the mechanics of dairy production before you make statements like that.

Anyway, I think it's mostly possibly to be healthy without meat in a diet, just really inconvenient unless you have spare time and the funds. I live mostly on 4/$10 pizza deals from Kroger or Wal-Mart. Sometimes I get some sandwich meats. And dairy can be acceptable if it's done in a respectable kind of way, not like these milk assembly lines or whatever. But that's rare. I suppose I do live close to Amish country, so if I feel like paying $5 for a gallon of milk, there we go.

Yesssss, well, I could develop that parallel to its logical conclusion, but I think it's best left there.


Er, are we going to the Swift infamous way of keeping Ireland out of hunger or what?
