Vegetarianism Reviews

... to beef or not to beef ... Until I was writing another review on slow cooking, I'd almost forgotten that I used to be a vegetarian. Not just a part-time, still-eat-fish, still wear leather shoes kind of vegetarian; but a full-time, radical, meat-is-murder kind of vegetarian. I'm 34 now, and went full-time veggie when I ...

I do not eat meat and consider myself a vegetarian altho I do sometimes eat fish. I find it very easy not to eat meat and after 16 years it is completely normal to me. I have never been tempted in all that time to start eating meat again. Most restaurants now cater for vegetarians altho admittedly sometimes some do not offer ...

I have been a vegetarian for 20 years now, and love it! Let me clarify, as there seems some confusion on this site, that a vegetarian does not eat meat, fish, or by products of meat (like gelatine). For me this is very much a personal choice and not something I force on others. My husband chose to become veggie at the same time, but we ...

My eldest son has always been fussy about what he eats, and only eats chicken and fish and certain vegetables and lots of fruit. When he was a baby he would only eat chicken and turkey dishes, and as he got older went onto fish fingers and lots of chicken. When my son was three he saw an animal get killed on tv, and he always said he would not eat ...

Being vegetarian. I was watching The F Word, Gordon Ramsay’s cookery programme, and he was banging on, like he does, about vegetarians. How strange, I thought, as there are many religions in the world where a vegetarian diet is the norm, and it is not just namby pamby southerners who feel the need to stop eating meat. Would they also ...

I have been a vegetarian for the past six years and l have to say that l do not miss eating meat at all. The thing is that l just do not like the taste of meat at all. There are so many vegetarian dishes that you can eat that you will never get bored of eating vegetarian food. Especially nowadays you hear about how meat is infected. ...

VEGETARIAN I am not a vegetarian and admit to being a meat lover so have no intentions of ever becoming vegetarian, but I would like to express my views on the subject all the same. FIRST KNOWLEDGE My first knowledge of someone being vegetarian was when I was a child and perhaps this has somewhat influenced my ...

The first thing I stopped eating was dead pigs in the grizzly form of the sausage. Physiologically the pig bares greater similarity to a human than any other animal and they are more intelligent than dogs. To witness the slaughter of pigs and smell the stench of their blood, it is quite easy to sense their terror, their sense of knowing that they ...

Hopefully there are some of you out there maybe thinking of going veggie- hold that thought! I went veggie four years ago after watching an animal welfare video on the meat industry. This film covered the whole process from the conception of the piglet on the "rape rack". This being the term for a contraption designed to restrain ...

Before i write anything on this subject i would first like to say that i know people have different opinions and i completly understand that some people may not agree with me. I was a vegetarian for 4 years, not a long time i know but it was long enough for me to discover and act on the reason for my dislike for meat. In ...

Now I’m not a vegetarian but I’m not a big meat eater. I like vegetables, carrots, peas, broccoli, potatoes, onions, cucumber I like all of them but I do eat meat I eat chicken and fish. Now I don’t eat a lot of chicken ill eat it once a week, because of the protein and I like the taste of it when its been cooked just right succulent and not to ...

Now I have never been a big fan of meat as I don’t particularly like the taste and have always been very fussy. I like red meat but only in mince meat or burger form and I like white meat but only if there is no trace of fat or bone and I have to check thoroughly before I even attempt to eat it. As you can see, eating meat for me is a bit of a ...

Vegie and Proud of it!! I’ve been vegie for about 10 years going back to when I first left home to go to university. Never being a big fan of meat when I started to cook for myself I just didn’t both cooking it and started to experiment with vegie recipes and found I liked them. Back then I still ate chicken and fish, as I ...

I’m a vegan. I have been since age 12 (eight years). I’m in excellent health, and I’ve noticed its much less common for me to get coughs and colds and other little things like that since I’ve been vegan. I’m not here to tell you veganism is the only way, or vegetarianism for that matter (because vegetarians that do that pee me off as much as they ...

Right, where do I start?. I have always, and WILL always eat meat, no matter what. From my own experience, as well as reading other peoples, I feel that being vegetarian can be seriously bad for you health. I?m not wanting to offend anyone with this, I merely want to put across the views of a meat eater, seeing as there is such ...

I am not a vegetarian. Although for a couple of years when I was a child my whole family decided not to eat meat. I can't really remember what tempted us enough to go back to being meat-eaters, but we were and we are. It is probably more fun to be a vegetarian now, more than ever - there is just so much more choice. And with ...

I have been vegetarian for 13 years, yes that's right since I was 13 years old. Every time I refuse a plate of sausages or sausage rolls or chicken drumsticks at a party or in the office or wherever I get that 'dropped jaw' look from people. They look at me like I have commited some sort of vicious crime or i should be ...

I've taken some time to read a few of the comments before replying to try and gauge the strength of feeling. Most people seem to have strong opinions about this but I have noticed a few harsh comments too. I am a vegetarian myself and for some reason people are always trying to define it by asking me what I do and do not eat - I ...

Quite frankly we are omnivores which means that throughout our evolution we have eaten both veg and meat. Most vegetarians became vegetarian because they do not like the idea of animals being killed (apologies to those of you who are allergic to meat). But the fact is humans have eaten meat for thousands of years and just because we are rich ...

...but why not? The opinion I'm about to give on the subject of vegetarianism makes perfect, crystal clear sense to me and I cannot understand why the rest of the world doesn't feel the same. I don't expect to get many "very usefuls" for this op and I apologise now for a lack of facts and figures. I don't think ...
