Im an animal lover so I prefer to be vegetarian- there is more variety of veggie food too!!

No im not veggie but I only eat chicken, which also is getting kind of sickning.. I dont eat any other meat because its all bloody before ya cook it, eeew!

Yup im a veggie.

Because......

Well when i was 4 my dad died and my brother told me he got put through the mince machine and ever since then i have just never eaten meat. I have tried not to be a veggie cause it can be a pain in the *** but has the same kinda affect as if i was lactose intolerant.

So im a veggie for good now!

No I am not. I consider myself to be a conscientious eater though. Even though I eat some meat, I don't eat others. For instance I refuse to eat veal because veal is baby cows that have been tied down and not permitted to move. and i think that is disgusting. I also don't eat lamb (chops or any other variation of lambies). The only meat I eat on a consistent basis is chicken. Maybe I'm a chicketarian.

if I don't need meat, and I don't want animals to suffer, then why would I eat meat?

i'm a vegetarian..have been for 3 years...there is no real answer as to why ...i mean i just couldn't eat meat anymore..it didn't seem right to me..it isn't for everyone but i know it's right for me..people who eat meat aren't bad i just couldn't eat animals anymore there are a lot of things about processing meat that would make anyone want to become a vegetarian it just depends on what and how much you want to know

yes
health
(i like animals too, but i did it primarily for health)

nope :)
meat helps us become stronger and muscular.
yeah we meat eaters kill animals but vegeterians kill plants...plants are living things...i mean they are categorized as living are they not?
we all also kill roaches, rats, insects, etc. and they're animals...

No, I like meat. I don't eat it a lot but every now and then I do eat either chicken or beef. I really don't like pork.

you are in the V&V section so chances are the answers would be yes. You should ask this in the general food and drink section to get a more varied response.
But then again, I could be wrong

PS I am not a vegetarian, would never consider being a vegetarian, and barring any medical necsessity, will never be a vegetarian.

yup,
i am a veggie ...the last meaty meal i had was thanksgiving '06.
so its been over a year, i had struggled with the inhumane treatment of animals for years ...i would look away, try to forget, and ignore the awful truth about meat processing plants......then i watched undercover tv-the day AFTER thanksgiving...( i was mortified ).....and i faced it and I made the decision, never to consume it again.
It has benefited me in many ways.....i lost 12lbs the 1st month
because no more nuggets or burgers for moi...my cholesterol is down 30pts and i have found a whole new way to look at food....it hasnt limited me ....it has opened up my creative side when it comes to meal prep....i have also made alot of new friends....via vegpeople.com
I am very please with my decision...although my family still eats meat andi have to prepare meals for them, I dont mind doing it. I just make something else for myself.

Why are people answering why they are not?
Anyways,
I am a vegetarian because all of the positive reasons to not eat meat stack up way higher than the positive reasons to eat meat.

because i saw a tshrit with two little chicks on it saying 'please don't eat us'

it's been three years now...
:)

Yes, I'm a vegetarian!! I love animals, and I think that it's cruel that we eat animals just because we like the taste! Ugh!!
Also, animals are treated badly when they are raised just to be killed. They use up a lot of land, too, and if everyone was vegetarian, then Global Warming wouldn't be as big of a problem.
Yay veggies!!!

We are not like the dogs.

No, because I eat meat. Vegetarians don't eat any animal flesh.

I am- mainly because eating pieces of dead animals sickens me. Secondly because I don't need meat, and if I don't, why would I want an animal to die for me? I think life is a gift, and I think it's horrible that we give life to all of these animals only to take it away from them before ever giving them a chance to live as nature intended them to. I can't eat something knowing that animal definitely did not want to die for me to eat him, and knowing that he most definitely did put up as much of a fight to live as he was capable of. I don't think there's a chicken out there who wants to be a chicken nugget, and who am I to say he should be?

I love animals and I don't think they should be abused and eaten. Plus I find it healtheir to be vegan anyway.

Reason that I don't eat - medical reasons.

I get sick because of the meds if I eat meat.

Yes I am, and if you need to know why watch this

it's depressing

Yes, I am a vegetarian. When I was 8 I got a BB gun. I thought that it would be fun to go outside and shoot stuff. So i saw some birds flying by and one landed in a tree. I shot it and it fell down. I watched its breathing slow down.........and then i watched it stop breathing and in that moment i felt SO BAD! I ran home and told my grandmother. She told me that it isn't right to kill animals unless you are going to eat them, but i just remember thinking "how could you look at an animal die and still want to eat it??". So when i was 8 i tried to go vegetarian but it didn't work to well, it lasted about 3 weeks.

January 12th of 2005 I was watching an episode of Fear factor. The people were eating Balut Eggs(a fertilized, almost fully developed duck embryo), and it made me so sad. I gave up meat on that day and i have been vegetarian ever since.

I'm a semi vegetaria. I eat fish and ocasionally some turkey (I'm slowly letting it go)

I don't like eating red meat because I do not approve the way the animals are treated and plus they put so much stuff in the meat its just not even healthy

Also it is bad for the environment to mass produce cattle like they are doing now because of the demand...so I choose not ot support that.

I don't eat pork cause i love piggies and I can't it is so depressing eating a tortured animal.

my sister bc she didnt want to eat animals. :( it only lasted for a few months, she decided to stop..bc she couldnt live w/out meat.

I'm NOT a vegetarian because I love to eat meat and chicken! God made animals for humans to eat!
