You'll like this one then, was at a party and this guy said he was a "cheating vegetarian", he won't buy meat to eat but if someone offers him meat, he'll eat it.

Good thing that's not the case then, right?If it's something where there's absolutely no other way of dealing with it, then I'll deal with it somehow. This isn't something like that at all, though.
It's not like it's even an uncommon phobia or anything ermm

That's my sister's diet; she probably hasn't eaten any meat that's not fish since she was 13 or so. But she's also discovered that people just 1) don't understand what pescetarianism is and 2) think that, well, if she eats fish, then why won't she eat any other meat? So she mostly just says she's a vegetarian and leaves it at that.People can really be nosy assholes about what other people eat, as if it's any of their business.
I personally do not get the popularity of low-carb diets. The human body is wired to run on carbs. I remember in one of my bio courses talking about how those diets can seriously mess up your body, and then the moment you stop all of the weight you lost will just balloon back.
Also, eating too little is just as bad as eating too much. Which a lot of people don't seem to understand.
(though, DDM, I don't really like your burger examples. They're not inherently an unhealthy food. And personally, while I don't like red meat, I'm anemic but can't take iron pills because they make me horribly sick. When I get overly tired and sluggish because my iron levels have dropped too low my brain starts going "CHEESEBURGER" 😛)
You're right on all accounts. It's just too damn difficult to explain to the ignorant some of the more "lengthy name" diets.
Also, yeah, I did not have a plain jane burger in mind. (Like a 97% lean meat burger made with "all natural" beef on a whole grain all natural bun. Or turkey/ostrich meat burger. lol!) I was thinking more of this:
BTW, that burger is DELICIOUS! 😆
Edit - Aw. 🙁 It's a shame my buddy JacopeX was banned. He should have played more nicely. RIP, man.
Double Edit -

Here's her loophole: she can be "gased" so that she passes out. Example: "halothane". That can be put into an a emergency kit, to boot. hehehehe
If she's out, she doesn't see the needle. 🙂

Well...yeah, doctors and hospitals do. It's not considered a waste at all. When I broke my finger a few years ago badly enough to need surgery, they gave me a tranquilizer so that I was too out of it and loopy to realize that they were stabbing my hand with a giant needle for the anesthetic shot. Because the day before when I was in the ER getting x-rays and stitches, I freaked the **** out when they went to give me an anesthetic shot.
