| heartstolenbymcr Killjoy Age: 29 Gender: - Posts: 57 | well im a vegetarian and quite strong with my beliefs. i do believe its wrong to eat meet but i try not to start fights or anything over that. vegans are different personally i dont see the point in that well because animals are producing it arent they , not being innocently slaughtered for us to sink our hungry muderous teeth into. my thoughts : VEGGIES ROCK |

Bleeding on the Floor  Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 1067 | Eponine: Haha, ours are actually not bad :/ We have a farmers market every weekend I LOVE Illinois So this is sort of old but pretty sweet http://blogs.kansas.com/weblog/2008/05/carlin-calls-for-big-changes-in-factory-farming/ I really wish there was a way people could be updated in farm legislation in the government. Like, weare ALWAYS updated when a farm is busted But Threre really needs to be a list of new laws being put in place and Factory Farms that are better to buy from :/ If ANYONE has any news on this sort of stuff, I would love to have it Im moving out in a few months, so i'llhave a bit more control over what I buy |
| tabitha Bleeding on the Floor  Age: 45 Gender: Female Posts: 1831 | I live in Florida and we have one of our major grocery chains called Publix and they carry their own brand of organically grown products as well as a wide selection of meats from smaller, cruelty-free farms. I can buy regular hamburger, for example, and not know where it came from, or I can buy certified meats from cruelty-free farms. Sure, it costs more, but it's something I believe in. |

| DIE! DIE! DIE! Bleeding on the Floor Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 1067 | I don't like any veggie should be saying that eating meat is wrong, or calling people names who do, because eating meat IS natural and it IS right...It just may not be right for *you* |

| What the Frank!? Motor Baby  Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 927 | i'm a vegetarian but i don't bother other people about eating meat and i would never try to force people to agree with me. |
| sciencefreak897 Banned  Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 40 | I lovr everything that lives...bugs, dogs, cows, everything.. I would be a vegetarian, but sadly, my parents get in the way! I try to skip, but sometimes they MAKEme eat meat! Ugh... I'm not a vegan, but I'll only eat eggs and milk from the localish free range farms. |
| The Creature In The Murder Scene  Age: - Gender: - Posts: 23462 | I'm thinking of becoming vegan, or at least I won't touch meat for a while (Even though I don't eat meat that much in general). Last night I was shopping with my grandma, and she wanted a pack of beef for tacos. I picked one up, and blood started running down my hand. It was disgusted. I saw pictures of cow and chickens getting killed, stunned, getting ready to be butchered, and it's heart-breaking. I'm an animal lover. I've tried to become a veterinarian before, but it didn't work out, 'cause I got sick. The meat I usually do eat has to come from a place where the animals were treated right, with respect, and died humanly. I respect and kinda look up to the people who are vegans. You stand for what you believe, and that's awesome. |
| conor oberst. Bleeding on the Floor  Age: 30 Gender: Male Posts: 1797 | i respect vegetarians/vegans. it's not an easy thing to do if you're around meat all the time and you've grown up eating meat. if someone is born in to a family who don't eat meat because they won't know what meat is like and they won't be missing out on much. i really wish i had the self dicipline to go vegetarian and maybe enentually vegan. |
| Chantal Bleeding on the Floor  Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 1015 | DIE! DIE! DIE!: I agree with part of this. I'm vegan, but I do agree with meat is natural. I find it funny some people try to tell me our ancestors were doing something unnatural to them before they invented the wheel. But I don't agree with the it's right part, hence why I'm vegan. |
| xxMy_Chem_Cutiexx Fabulous Killjoy  Age: 28 Gender: Female Posts: 139 | I am a vegetarian and have 4 other sisters so i know what u mean about being teased about it. luckily one of my best friends is also a veggie so i talk to her all the time. and i do like peta but im not all high and mighty about it. P.S. NATIONAL HUG A VEGETARIAN DAY IS COMING UP ON SEPT. 26TH!! |
| Emerald Muerte Bleeding on the Floor  Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1134 | conor oberst.: I went veggie only three months ago, it's a lot easier than it seems. I thought it would be really hard, I was brought up in a family who eat meat nearly every day [and i live on a farm], but now I don't think I could ever return to eating meat. If you go about it sensibly, you don't necessarily have to 'plan' your diet but you do need to know what you're erasing and what substitutes [if any] you're bringing in. It's quite simple really, it's a healthy lifestyle and I wish anyone who wants to try going vegetarian/pescartarian/vegan luck, although I can assure you it is likely you won't need it! ;] ^ yay! I shall spread the news (= |
| tabitha Bleeding on the Floor Age: 45 Gender: Female Posts: 1831 | I have a friend who is going through an interesting time right now. She is a vegetarian, her husband is not. Up to now, their son has been breastfeeding so he has, for all intents and purposes, been on a vegetarian diet as well. Now he is starting to eat solid foods, and Mom prepares one veggie or a blend of two or three, and he continues to eat veggie when Mom feeds him. Dad is starting to give him small amounts of whatever he is eating, including meat if he is having it. It's an interesting dynamic, and I'm curious to see how their son chooses, being raised "partial vegetarian". |
| samantha connolly In The Murder Scene  Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 24519 | I'd just like to remind everyone that quoting someone without posting your own opinion, or just saying "I agree" or something, isn't a valid post. So none of that please! |
| Simple and Clean Salute You in Your Grave Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2616 | psychochip: Just curious, but does the mother mind the father feeding him meat? |
| tabitha Bleeding on the Floor Age: 45 Gender: Female Posts: 1831 | ^^ I asked her that and she said no. Vegetarianism is her choice, and she has said that she hopes that the baby will choose it as well as he grows older, but she understands her husband's feelings too -- he was raised on a farm and taught that animals are food, so he still eats meat. |
| blow Bleeding on the Floor Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 1137 | ^Well for a baby a vegetarian diet is not healthy at all. |
