I was vegetarian for two months before I changed to vegan!. And I did it purely for animal rights!. It breaks my heart to know that animals are tortured, slaughtered, abused, mistreated and exploited everyday - it's a personal choice - and I chose not to take part of it!. It made me feel better knowing that no animal was harmed for my food and clothing and products that I use!. I've always been an animal lover and I guess I couldn't handle the guilt anymore!.

Simply put - despicable food production practices!.
I do not have a problem with eating another animal who was humanely killed and raised in an environmentally sustainable way - my issue is with the way that most animals are treated throughout their lives and the portion of earth that was destroyed as a result!.
Of course, technically, this makes me NOT a true vegetarian!. I do eat meat produced, hunted, or caught in ways I approve of!. Just not very often because meat doesn't really excite me anymore, anyway!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Animal rights!.!.!. i don't think any animal should be treated that way!.!.!. we as humans are sickened when other humans are slaughtered by murder and such why are animals any dif!?!?!? We after all are animals!.!.!. no better then the cows or the ant's!.!.!. just because we, by nature, have the ability to process right from wrong doesn't mean that animals should have to suffer everyday just for our pure pleasure!.!.!. Just because we can't effectively communicate and they can't fight back well doesn't mean that they don't feel sad, pain, fear, loneliness, etc!.!.!. one person once said that animals are just resources!.!.!. well these "resources" are someones baby's, moms, dads, cousin, sister, brother, etc!.!.!. how would they feel if their parents, siblings, or relatives were treated as these animals are!?!?!? not too good i suppose!.!.!.
Other then animal rights (which i feel strongly about and could go on and on but i decided not to as to not sound all grrr lol!.!.!.) i do it because after looking at meat i see it's just flesh which doesn't sound too appetizing and i don't crave it and i see the poor animals behind the meat!.!.!.
But i also do it for my health!.!.!. I can fight off diseases and obesity and such!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
