To have a balanced diet a vegetarian would need to eat lots of vitamins and stuff they don't get from meat, fake meat includes those vitamins
Also, it doesn't taste like meat at all really, or share the same texture, it just fills the same place in a sandwich or meal
Originally posted by Piggle HumsyI disagree with the meat trade, it's inhumane and I don't want to be a part of a culture that doesn't understand respect for life or the concept of finite resources (it's been proven that humans eat way too much meat). When I'm older, I may buy meat from a trusted source i.e. a butchers, because I know it has been sourced properly and is sustainable. I don't mind something dying for my pleasure to eat — that's always happened, but I don't see why something should suffer for the same end.
This is why I think vegetarianism is stupid.Sorry herbeyes
I could explain further, but I end up having to double back on myself to explain things and link things up and the like.
So as you can see, vegetarianism is not stupid, it is in fact a social, moral, political and philosophical ideology that stems from many intellectual places majors

And generally, I'm a lot healthier than most people who eat meat, anyway. Meat isn't supposed to be eaten with every meal — it's more damaging to eat it all the time than not at all
I don't eat it with every meal. I would if I could. But I don't.
To be fair, thinking about it, I have quite a vegetarian diet the majority of the time.

It's not a good idea to get me started on vegetarianism awehuhs least of all because I'm not strictly a vegetarian, I don't like sticking to a term, having that dictate my eating habits. Sometimes I eat meat, i.e. a special occasion, or if I literally have no choice
Okay I'll stop now awecool
Originally posted by Piggle HumsyLike I say, I'm fine with the animals dying. I just don't want to be a part of their prolonged suffering is all. Besides, if everybody in the world became a vegetarian (which far too many vegetarians think they should), what'd we do with all the animals? They'd lose purpose... we'd have to kill them all, essentially, because otherwise they'd just be taking up space.

A lot of veggies are very self-righteous and think they know it all, I'm not one of them. I have dissuaded people from becoming vegetarian at uni because, simply, it wouldn't be the best option for someone with little money.
I just see it as a general personal trait more than a strict dogma or anything. mmm
Anyway I'm rambling
