When did meat start smelling like death to you?!
My question is for the other vegetarians out there is .... when I smell meat now (especially red meat) I feel physically repulsed...do you feel like this? For how long after you went veggie full time? Is this a normal reaction?
Answers: I've been a vegetarian totally for a year and a half ( I still eat eggs and dairy though).I was raised in a house that served meat, and I ate it growing up...I gave it up for personal ethical reasons, but have no problems with anybody else eating it if they want.

I don't know how long meat has smelled like death to me, because I'm not usually around people cooking/eating meat. But I know that it has been that way for at least a year. Fried chicken is the worst for me. It makes me want to vomit.
When someone passed me the bussel sprouts, boy can those sprouts produce sulphurous smells when over cooked.
Oh yeah. Totally normal. It does smell like death. Its crazy. People will see dead animals yet not be repulsed yet they will eat it and a clear concious.
5 th year vegetarian and I'm about to go vegan. But I've never really drinkin or eaten milk or eggs any animal product straight. Just like hidden in a cookie or something.
I'm ready to go vegan after the Holidays.
In one of my classes today we had a lab with egg, milk ,cream cheese ect
and so we were pouring iodine in it (I refused to) I felt so bad, because its like an unborn chicken (eggs). It just didn't feel right.
Still smells delicious to me. lol man, maybe you are pregnant.
Yes, that's a normal reaction... it's natural to feel disgusted when you realize that meat is actually the flesh of a once-living animal. I started feeling repulsed by the smell of meat cooking right around the time I became vegetarian.
No, I don't feel like that.
I can appreciate the smell of cooking even if a dish may have meat in it. you don't smell meat. You smell the spices and seasonings or the smoke of the food.
The smell literally makes me nauseous, at least cows and pigs. Chicken still smells good to me, but I don't see that lasting too long either! It is so weird on how easy it is to give up meat, and to be so easily sickened by it that you never want to eat it again. I never thought it would be that easy.
But if it is spiced really well then sometimes it does smell somewhat good.
Yes it is normal. Sometimes it smells worse than others but it is hard to smell it without feeling you are smelling decay.
I became vegetarian when I was about 18 or 19 so cannot remember when it started to smell awful but I know that raw meat can really turn my stomach
I would say that it was a year and half after I went vegetarian. During that year, I didn't want to impose my vegetarianism on my family, so I would cook them a meat dish on occasion. But after a year of cooking what seemed like two meals for dinner, I just told them that I can't stand the sight or smell of meat anymore. They were so use to all my vegetarian dishes that they said OK and just ate what I made for myself.
And I get repulsed whenever I am out shopping and can smell a restaurant's burnt meat smell outside (trying to entice people inside). I am also repulsed by the smell of my kid's school cafeteria (it smells of meat and grease).
You probably have good olfactory senses just like me.
We are animals.. and in the nature, animals eat other animals, being a carnivor is not wrong... respect your nature...
