Advise for me please.?!
At TocoBell subustuting the meat for beans just don't taste the same!
Answers: I've been vegetarian on and off since I was a junior in high school. Now I am not. I know about vegetarian meats and eat them often. My weakness is KFC, and Toco Bell. Then if I've been vegetarian for awhile after eating just one meal at either place and I am through! So when I go vegetarian again (at some unknown time) how do I get over a fast food weakness?

Have you seen the videos about the cruelty to KFC animals??? Don't know what your main reason is for abstaining from meat, but for me I don't want to eat anything that has gone through so much pain and suffering. If you have any concern for yourself and your well-being don't eat these foods. They are hazardous to your health. Try reading fast food nation or watching super size me. You didn't say that you eat McDonald's, but it applies. It's good that you have tried to be and have been vegetarian, it can be hard to maintain this lifestyle in our day and age. I find it really helpful to go to PETA's website when I'm feeling weak to remind myself why this sort of individual protest means so much to me the environment and the rights of animals. Best of Luck :)
I know you mentioned liking Taco Bell too and you miss the meat in the meatless options. Take into consideration how processed that meat is. It really is junk food. Be kind to your body.
you can always get veggie burgers from harveys..those are good.
yeah.. i went though that a while back.. how i did it (and i was also addicted to taco bell) was bring some fake chicken strips with me. go though the drive threw and just put the fake stuff in it.. after a while i really didn't want to go spend the money on it.. After i saw i was paying like 5 bucks for something i could make at home.. i stopped going.. never had that problem this KFC.. i got a PETA flyer in the mail ( don't hate me cuz i got one put in my door) after seeing the way KFC treats the chickens.. never really wanted to go back..
wahoo100... - has no idea what he/she is talking about!
Well, firstly work out why you want to be vegetarian. Then look at how your own reasons to be a vegetarian goes against those companies.
Your reason maybe health, or animal cruelty, factory farming etc,, and on each level KFC, Taco bell and other fast food places are going against your beliefs!
You have one of two choices:
a) your taste bud's
b) your own morals and beliefs
Now you are the one living your life, so, the choice is yours!
Good luck.
I am surprised that Taco Bell and KFC are your weaknesses as a vegetarian. This is just about the lowest quality meat you could be eating. I'd advise you to go organic if you are going to eat meat. This way you are avoid eating sickly animals that are crammed into factory farms, that poop all over each other, are fed rendered animal products, and are pumped full of antibiotics and growth hormones. Yuck.
I don't eat at fast food restaurants, so my only advice is to give it up. You could make your own tacos, using tempeh or other meat substitutes.
im a vegeterian to and strugle with the same problem when ever i go to taco bell i get quesadias (i might have spelled thst wrong) and nachos (i might have spelled thas wrong too)
good luck
It's like smoking. You're addicted to the chemicals that are killing you.
Avoid fast foods like the plague.

There is nothing wrong with what you do. I do not know why you go vegan for any length of time nor does it matter. I have more respect for those like you than the strict and rabid V&Vs. It is not like you are going to hell for these choices. Enjoy your KFC!!!
