Veganism VS Vegeterian??

What are peoples opinions on Vegans and vegeterians?
Do u think its stupid or what? Ive been Vegeterian for 6 months now. Ne one else, from the scene???

and this is here why??


Just kidding spose it was expected i say something..

I dont eat heaps of meat but like it on occassion. Dont think I could totally abolish it from the menue.. Though whatever floats your boat..

what's with all the food (food related) threads? lol

can't comment on this one as i have tried neither. i tell you though, if i had to kill an animal to eat meat it wouldn't happen and i would be vegetarian!

i didnt evolve to top of the food chain to eat vegetables.

i cant live without meat

I've done my best to eat one of each animal.. not going to list what i have eaten so far but i'm past the half way mark..

MMmmmmm....Gouchos!!

bring on the 1kilo T-Bone!

I couldnt live without meat! mmm...chicken....mmm...porterhouse steak!

I admire people who are vegetarians for animal rights reasons but I just dont feel that strongly about it. Sometimes when Im at the gym I look out the window and see trucks going past carrying hundreds of sheep and I feel sad. Then I just make myself feel better by putting it down to the food chain

Vegetarians dont bother me but veganism is pretty full on. Each to their own I guess. Im pro-meat tho

i like meat

i like veg

so what am i then

I have to admit I couldn't live without meat!! It's so tasty!!! Mmmmnnnn!!! Nice steak or roast!!!!
Like Tidygirl said, it all comes down to the food chain. If we are close to if not top of the list in the food chain, then why shouldn't we eat what we want? Bacon, steak, sausages!!!! Mmmmnnnn!!! Show me the protein!!!

mmm... bacon... you really shouldn't have started this thread, now everyone's talking about their favourite meat and you're realising what you've been missing out on for the past six months aren't you?

Couldn't be vegetarian and would not ever consider being vegan. Meat just makes everything taste so much better!

i'm no vegetarian,

but have consistently reduced the amount of meat in my diet over the past few years

i now have plenty of vego meals, particularly vego pasta, vego rice/risotto and vego stirfry noodles etc.

but i still love my chicken steak and fish etc

last time i was at Gaucho's, the special of the day was:

Whole Roast Kidd (aka Baby Goat). and trust me, they were hanging off the plate at both ends

Mmmmmm Gauchos gotta hate that the kilo doesnt come out n the chopping block anymore, fuggin health regulations.

I dont eat a hell of alot of meat most weeks but when i do i do it properly eg gauchos, dont think i could live as a vego.

As the quote goes "If god didnt want us to eat meat he wouldnt have made animals out of it"

I am also eating my way through a fair species have done roo, buffalo, emu, wallaby, crocodile mmm native meet

My wife is a lacto-tolerant vegan so I know all about it. She wont eat any meat, chicken, seafood, eggs, etc... She will eat cheese but only animal renet free stuff but will allow milk and cream in cooking.

Ive discovered some great vegan dishes because of her tho.

Im vegatarian but not vegan, i dont care if anyone else eats animals but i dont see why i should have to eat an animal. I guess its kinda hard sometimes though cause of some peoples attitudes when they find out your vegetarian...

People really think you are weird for being a vegetarian - it's not like a cult or anything...!? What type of people do you hang with..?

And, people - it's not about the food chain (anymore). If we went out and had to hunt our food - then maybe it would be... there's plenty of stuff we can eat to get the protein we need - lentils - all the yummo stuff like that

That said, I don't feel too sad when I tuck into a chicken, fish, t-bone, bacon bits... just if it's a Bambi or a Skippy or something like that - too cute to eat

And Buz - you're an omnivore - you eat both plant and meat.

I'd rather be vegetarian out of the two choices up there. Veganism - so hard to do... eggs, honey... and no jelly babies - Agh, I'd die! They're made of gelatin (horse hooves!)

It's all about choices.

mmmmmmm.........meat

i likes everysingle kind of meat



get some pork on your fork!!!!!

quite a response from this one.
2 answer your question about who i hang out with, is a wide range of people. From people who give me shit about being Vego, 2 quite a few Vegans.
But then again- i do socialise with the Hardcore scene, which is full of "straight edge" people and Vegans. Chosing the path of "straight edge" is a hard but wise thing i believe, and Congratulations to whoever takes the path..... But personally i could never commit myself to nething like that. For example a very close friend of mine, who happens to be a hot chick!!! Has "Straight Edge" tattood across the back of her neck. And has been vegan for 4 years. now thats a long time.
But majority of my friends ARN'T vego. And id laugh at myself if my decision was based on following trends. This was my choice as an individual and only that. Bring on the SOY Burgers i say....

i dunno wot catagory i fall under
i stopped eatting all meats cept fish when i was 11..
and about e year ago i started eatting chicken
so ... i dunno if that makes me a vegetarian or what... ??
but yeah.. i dunno wot my reasons were for doing this

I solemnly believe that if we weren't meant to eat meat, it wouldn't have been made so bloody tasty!

Tops meats are:
All pig products
Kangaroo
Chicken
Crocodile (Tastes fishy but with chicken like texture)
Beef
Lamb
Anything with marinade!
Steak with a nice mushroom sauce... Bacond sammiches... chicken satay sticks... Ohhh!
Mixed grills, however unhealthy, absolutely ROCK!

Ohhh shit I'm hungry now! Good thing I'm heading to the earl tonight! Steak or Schnitta it is!

what is the meatrix ??

THE MEATRIX

vegeterian all the way for me!!

the way i c it, the animals eat plants, so when we eat them, we dont need to...

im not tryin 2 b mean or anythin, but id rather eat an animal, instead of it eating me

i dont trust em...

lil beady eyes that jus stare at you wen u walk across a paddock... just waiting for that moment ur not watchin, then like BAM its all over

they could gang up on and trample you!
