Answers:
I'm a Witness and a vegetarian!. I eat this way for health reasons!. I would like to go vegan- I don't drink milk, but, oh, the CHEESE!!! I love cheese, sigh!.
I have eaten a high raw diet in the past, but somehow got away from it!. That was harder if you ate away from home!. I drink a lot of fresh vegetable juices!. Nobody has said anything negative!. When I have eaten with the friends, I just don't eat the meat and don't make a big deal out of it!. My husband still eats meat almost every day, and I usually cook it for him!. Sometimes it smells great, but I haven't eaten any meat in a long time!. I was not a vegetarian before becoming a Witness!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I am a vegan and was a Witness for several years!. The other Witnesses would always kid me because they say in the "new earth" we won't eat meat anyway, so I was ahead of the game!. No one ever said anything negative about it, if that's what you mean!. I think they felt a little sheepish that they weren't vegetarians!. After the cataclysm, when no one is left on earth but Jehovah's people and those who never had a chance to make a decision, we'll live like Adam and Eve before the fall- fruits and vegetables!. I was a vegan before I became a Witness!. I left because they wanted me to kick out my room mate of 12 years because she wasn't a JW!. I said no!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I am a learning Jehovah's Witness and I never tried to just eat fruits and vegetables!. But I would believe it is much more healthier eating like that!. Your body would daily detox and then your chances of catching a deadly disease like cancer, would be way down!. I have a weakness for fried chicken and I know that is not healthy!. But you know, I will pray to Jehovah God and see if I can become one!. But tell me, a vegetarian will eat ONLY fruits and veggies!? What about nuts, yogurts, flax seed like that!? Or how about chocolates!? Oh I love chocolates and peanut butter!Www@FoodAQ@Com
My wife and I are JWs but we have never been true vegans [except on a temporary basis - my wife lost 28 pounds in one month once on a vegetarian diet]!. For a while we ate vegetarian only on Mon-Fri and ate meat only on week-ends!. Eating only natural, preferably organic meat!.!.!. No antibiotics or hormones!. This would include wild meat like venison!.
We pretty much still do this except now we eat seafood numerous days a week, and recently started eating eggs again for breakfast!. Still try to avoid most dairy products but do make exceptions!.
By the way, you do realize that no one will drink cow's milk in the new system don't you!? Reason being is because at Armageddon there will be utter destruction!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I know I will get a "thumbs down" for this but, Prince (the singer) is a Jehovah's Witness and he is vegan!. He was born a Seventh Day Adventist but converted into being a Jehovah's Witness in the year 2004!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I know vegetarian Jehovah's Witnesses but they do out because of health reasons with no religious significance!. These people have always been witnesses!. As for me I don't think i would be able to be a vegetarian, i love meat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I’m not a JW or a vegetarian, but I have a friend who is both!. She was raised a Witness, so the vegetarian thing came second!.
That’s a very odd question though!. I don’t see the relationship between the two!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Lacers was a vegetarian, but she hardly ever posts anymore, as she is busy pioneering, and just got back from Honduras!.

I know a sister, and I believe her husband, is a vegitarian!. I believe she was, originally one, before becoming a Witness!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
