    I'm a vegetarian, and it will be 5 years since I stopped eating meat come November. I don't try to push my preferences and beliefs on other people, but it frustrates me when people don't understand why I chose to become a vegetarian and make little jokes about it. If I'm tolerant enough to let them eat meat, I think it only fair that they show me the same respect and realize that by sticking a hamburger under my nose, I'm not going to suddenly want to chow down.

    He probably won't live long either. I don't think we can do very well off of meats only. Our bodies need fiber, vitamins, and the antioxidants that plants provide along with proteins, fats, etc..

    I have met many unhealthy vegetarians and very few healthy ones, because they didn't really learn about the needs of their bodies and neglect a proper balance. But a balanced vegetarian diet can be a great one for many.

    Well, I can assure you that I'm a "healty vegetarian." I've been this way for almost five years, and I definitely did my research before making such a drastic change in my diet. I agree that there can be unhealthy vegetarians when they haven't taken the time to learn to eat properly, but the same can be said for meat-eaters, as well.

    I would venture to say that it would be more difficult to give up meat than to stop smoking, for me personally.

    Did you know that honey actually contains the same basic sugar units as table sugar?

    I used to be vegetarian from birth until 17. That was the time when I was away from my moms kitchen. I had to change, because that time no vegi restaurants.]

    Pork is dangerous if you eat the indestines and blood of it.

    Plus, it has flavor, which sugar does not. I love honey in many different edible capacities - for dipping, sweetening, etc.
