Well, I grew up in the dirt pretty much and just loved animals so much!. From toddlerism, I was never really fond of meat!. Sometimes I would gag on it and I was always the person to bite into a nice piece of Grissel, fat, or find a tumor in my meat!. My love and empathy for animals encouraged me to inform and educated myself about what animals go through to get to our plates!. I did and I watched many videos and read a lot of literature to learn that animals suffer horrifically their whole lives to make a meal that will ultimately end up in the toilet!. Taste wasnt worth the sacrifice of the animals, and I believe that a meatless diet is not only more healthy for the human body nowadays, but humans themselves are evolving to not tolerate the effects of meat on there systems!. There are many chemicals such as antibiotics, anabolic steroids, and other hormones being pumped into the meat and dairy people eat and it is effecting them adversely!. Though that is not what the meat and dairy companies want you to believe!. Mostly it was the torture of animals that put me to no longer eat them!. I dont want to be a part of that!.

I always thought vegetarians were idiots who thought they were better than everyone else!. I found out about how the animals are treated in the factories, which made me uneasy about eating meat, but the big thing that did it for me was the health reasons: Meat is a lot of fat, your body was to work very hard to digest it, it comes from unhealthy, sickly animals, contains antibiotics, is unnecessary, we eat way too damn much of it in America, we do not need as much protein as we think, and it is not meant for human beings in the first place!.
There's just no benefit from meat that you can't get anywhere else easily, and there are too many cons!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well, when I was about nine, I was watching the simpsons I saw the episode about Lisa becoming vegetarian!. I wanted to be just like Lisa (yes, I was kind of odd) and it only lasted for about a week!. Then, I read about factory farming and how cruelly the animals are treated and I decided that I should become vegetarian!. Now, I'm vegan :)Www@FoodAQ@Com
Animal cruelty was a very big factor for me!. I mean, go on youtube and you see how animals are treated and killed!. It's no secret that animals are fed antibiotics and other chemicals to make them gain weight, which we then put into our bodies with the meat!. Secondly!. meat is not essential to our survival, indeed I agree that it's pointless eating it!. The crops that are used to raise farm animals could be used as food for humans and help the world hunger!. Now 7kg of crops are needed to produce 1kg of chicken! And then again, if you go on sites it's proving that a healthy vegetarian diet is far more healthier and people who live by these diets tend to have a higher life expectancy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I guess I was fine with factory farming (well, not fine, but I figured I was not going to change it by going meatless)
I was fine with eating meat because I did not realize how harmful factory farms are to the environment, and whatever inkling I did have, I squelched by rationalizing that a big city produced more pollutants than a feedlot, and that, there again, one person could not make a difference!.
But when i found out that countries with the lowest milk consumption also have the lowest incidences of osteoporosis and breast cancer, that 18 ounces or more of red meat a week increased my risk of colon and stomach cancer by 30%, and there was no safe level of processed meat, it raised my chances by 40%, !.!.!.that doctors will go to wellness centers and eat diets of fresh fruit and vegetables and GET WELL, but at the same time, refuse to send their patients there, subjecting them to radiation and chemo, and that patients with cancer who ate a strict diet of fresh fruits and veggies recovered more wholly than those who drank milk for their bones, managed their stress, and ate a healthy diet!.!.!. that antibiotics and growth hormones fed to animals actually were being absorbed into my body, into MY muscle tissue, well, suddenly it did seem like one person could make a difference!. I don't need to start a revolution to live with a decreased risk of cancer- I can do that all on my own!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I did it purely for health reasons, my digestive system was giving up the ghost on me!. As I never ate alot of meat to start with it wasn't too hard to eliminate it altogether!.
It now feels a little strange that I used to eat some of the animals whose passage I had helped into the world!. I'd never thought about it that way before!.
I'm stilll a big supporter of free range farming though, and I believe it's everyone's right to choose whatever diet they wish to!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
