Is eating meat an addiction?!
Answers: No, you only think you need it. It is not a necessity.
only if it interferes with your daily life
no it is not
u mit just love the taste of it
No, it is not an addiction, it is healthy (in moderation) and tastes good.
It depends. It is for people who don't think at all about what they eat as long as it looks good. What I mean is they don't realize what it is. They think its FOOD. It isn't. It is something that used to have a family and a mom and a dad and a gf/bf. People who can get themselves to understand that can easily give up meat.

No. What would be the addictive ingredient like nicotine in cigarettes?
I don't think that kind of thing can be an addiction...it may be a daily part of your life but so is breathing.
no only if you feel you HAVE to eat it at times
there have been studies done on this, and eating meat does cause the body to release hormones that increase happiness. can we do without it? of course....you won't go through convulsions from giving up meat. but if you do some research and pull up scientific evidence you'll find that they have linked meat to addiction.
For some people it may be, definitely not for me and never was!
Some people may be addicted to meat products like burgers or sausages(not much meat in those tho!)
not that i know of
To many people across the world, yes it is addictive to them.
Meat disgusts me.
(meat eaters can be very defensive. They will never know the wonders of a plant based diet. *sighs*)
EDIT : Do Meat eaters know that there are a range of protein rich foods? To rely on meat is not healthy!
Everything is an addiction. Technically speaking, one can become addicted to water.
But seeing as how the media and such blast our minds with images of meat dishes and encourage so many to eat meat (by associating it with good feelings), it pretty much is an addiction for our society.
My philosophy is: if you crave it to where your life is interfered, it is an addiction.
Not at all. I stopped eating meat cold turkey and didn't have withdrawal symptoms. And I did have withdrawal symptoms when I stopped smoking, so...
whats the word..
gluttony?
Food is an addiction- yes we need it to survive
But some people go over board-
as you can clearly see in our society today
And as for many people who I speak to- They go crazy at the thought that I don't take out a fast food order for a Big Mac and fries. They say- I couldn't live without it.
I don't have an addictive personality- but if I did..
well I didn't like the taste anyway-
but if I did..
Then it would be just like a drug-
maybe people are addicted to fatty foods with tons of sodium. With thousands if not millions of steak houses and burger bars in the US with most of them doing very well. I would say it has to be.
no! eating meat is something u do if ur normal
yes it is.
like garlic and onion, it is also responsible for sensual desires
I read recently that it is. It has the same ingredient that is in Chocolate that makes a person feel so "good". Right up there with kiddy cocaine ~ SUGAR~
Not exactly, but We crave it because Our bodies require protien.
no just a necessity of life
