southcap Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 As someone who loves meat....... Never understood the dislike of veggies. Humans have evolved to eat a majority vegetarian diet, with some meat. Only having meat 2 days a week would be a more accurate example of a natural diet. I usually manage 2/3 days a week without meat. Feel better/healthier/leaner for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegetarian "meat" gets me more annoyed than it probably should. I had a woman at work moaning in my lug once because we were sold out of vegetarian Ham. The urge to tell her to go and **** herself was almost overwhelming. All in all I don't mind vegetarians or vegans providing they don't try and force their principals on me.

I'm not a vegetarian or vegan, but I know lots of people who are, and your experiences seem to be typical. It's the meat eaters who seem to get bent out of shape, as demonstrated by some of the comments on this thread. The vegans I know are very healthy, and none of them take vitamins or any other dietary supplements. And none of the ones I know care about the eating habits of anyone else; to each their own. Anyone who thinks that vegans are somehow missing an important part of their diet, like protein for example, is incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankblack Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Some examples of people above saying they are vegetarian when they are not. Someone who is mostly vegetarian but eats fish is classed as a "pescatarian(sp?)". Someone who calls themselves vegetarian but has bacon rolls is a liar.

plastic_bas Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 I've been vegan for around 6 months now and I've never felt better. I did struggle to get the balance right at first though and did take iron supplements. I agree with what some of the above posters have said regarding meat eaters talking about it more than me. I think it stems from the British embarrassment when ordering off menu. I went to pizza express with a colleague and he nearly had to leave the table he was so uncomfortable about me asking for a pizza without cheese. Pizza express will actually put a soy cheese on of your choosing if you bring it in with you. I imagine he would have combusted if I had done that.

tian447 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 One of my friends is a vegan. Even he admits it's a choice that's hard to maintain, but he's one of the few that doesn't harp on about it all the time. In fact, for the first 6 months, I didn't even realise he was vegan until he asked for a specific menu when our group went out for dinner one night. No hassle, no preaching, no trying to convert people or convince people. He likes the fairtrade side of the deal. He likes the not harming animals side of the deal. Both of those points are fair enough in my book. He says it's a pain in the arse when going to the pub though The other side of the coin are the people that use being vegan as their whole identity, trying to convert people to their ideology and telling everyone else how they're wrong. Those people are complete weirdos - anyone that lives their life trying to tell other people what they should do is completely mental (see the religion thread for similar views).

You're right about B-12, vegans have to work on that, but I think they get plenty of calcium from soy products. I'm not vegan, so wtf do I know about it. As I said earlier, they all seem like a healthy bunch to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawnrazor Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Heard horrible stories about the environmental damage caused in some areas due to soya being grown, trees being cleared in some countries, I'm sure there was an channel 4 programme on it, the point was if vegans and veggies saw what was going they'd think twice about eating all that tofu.

Most soya plantations are for cattle feed I think... Might be wrong. Diet wise it seems amino acids in particular are something important that animal products provide and there is clearly an evolutionary necessity that separates us from other mammals. What I would say is the current intensive factory approach to meat and dairy that gives us our sanitized, wrapped up products on the shelves is simply unethical by any modern civilized standards. Watching a ten minute video on PETA for example should underline this basic reality. There's a start up in California who are basically looking to create cloned meat as a solution but it's very cost prohibitive at the moment. Would be interesting to see how people would react to this option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
