Is it worth to became a vegetarian?!
i love all animals,dont want to eat them,but some people say that we r natural meat eaters,we need it for our system!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
Oh it is absolutely worth it!.!.!.!.
It is atrocious how animals are treated in order for them to be lined up to be slaughtered for human consumption!. We have no right to breed them, cram them in little cages, take their basic rights away (to roam, forage, walk around, explore) - just because we want to eat them !
I might get all the thumbs down but, I sincerely believe we are not meant to eat animals!.!.!. human digestive system CANNOT digest raw meat - our tongues cannot carve out meat from bones, we have no claws no canines, how can people justify eating meat !?
Anyway, the truth is we need PROTEIN - and there are many sources of protein other than meat (beans, pulses, lentils)
end of the day it is your choice, i have been a vegetarian most of my life and perfectly happy and healthy!.
good luck with whatever you decide!.

Humans!? Natural meat eaters!? Whoever says that needs to do their research!.
Yes we have canines as do many other herbivores!. But ours unlike animals who eat meat are round and do not protrude much!.
We have molars and canines!.
Animals who eat meat have no molars!.
We have the ability to move our jaws up, down, left, right in a rotating motion to help break up plant fibres and bulky items to prevent choking!.
Animals who eat meat only have the ability to move their jaw up and down and have the ability to swallow large chunks of flesh!.
We have round soft and short fingernails, not suitable for catching or tearing at flesh!.
Animals who eat meat have sharp strong and long claws ideal for catching prey and tearing at flesh!.
We have a long intestinal tract to allow plant fibres to break down!.
Animals who eat meat have short intestines to prevent meat rotting in the gut!. The consumption of red meat increases the risk of stomach and colon cancer in humans!.
Can you honestly see yourself chasing down a cow and having the physical ability to kill it, tear off chunks of flesh and eat it raw!? Animals don't cook their meat to prevent themselves from getting ill, yet humans do!. Can you see yourself or anyone saying "yummy" and diving into a recently killed animal, ripping at its carcass with your bare teeth!? It usually repulses people at the thought of it so how can it be natural!?
Do your research and make your own choices!. I did and have been veggie for over 7 years and after recently having a check up at the doctors was told I was in "robust good health"!. Like any diet, it needs to be balanced but many people assume that just because they have a slab of meat on their plate, they're getting all the nutrients they need which is completely ignorant!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Humans are Born Vegetarians !!!
The body can digest fruits and vegetables, but not meats!. Not unless it is cooked!. So why go against the nature!. Let's be as simple as be Vegetarians!.
If you get to know the variety available in vegetariansim, it is amazingly high and you have far more tasty foods!.
One has to be very careful with Non-veg as there are lots of bacterias that spread from the flesh of Pig if not cooked properly (as most of the animals lack good sanitation) and Sea foods very quickly leads to food -poisioning!.
But yes, being vegetarian is not easy, and is more expensive too!.
However, if you want to go through a debate, then here is a site!.

This is no longer true!.
We need protein, which is from meat true, but the main ingredient in veggie food is protein!
We used to have to kill meat to live, this is no longer neccessary!. A vegetarian diet is so much more healthy than a meat eater one, if you go to www!.peta!.org and order a vegetarian starter kit, I found it great!
It takes a while to be delivered but if in the meantime you go to the vegetarian section in the shops, try all different types, and research it on the web, also looking into how the animals are killed!.
Good luck and please let me know how it goes! =]Www@FoodAQ@Com

You really have to decide this for yourself, if you can live without eating meat or fish and it would make you feel happier living that way, then just do it!. I have been a vegetarian most of my life, there is plenty to choose from these days and to be honest, a lot of people I know don't even realise I am a vegetarian, I never tell anyone unless I absolutely have to so most people don't even notice!. It's your choice of course and there are plenty of alternatives to meat/fish that you can find to get all the nutrients you need, just needs a bit of planning and research!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Being vegan is worth it for me!. Yes, it's a challenge at times, but I think I'm doing the right thing!.
And, no, we don't "need" meat; we can eat it--we are omnivores--but we don't need meat to be healthy!. And the way meat is produced, and the amounts in which Americans eat it, are incredibly unhealthy!. The folks who say you need meat are meat eaters themselves who don't want to give up their addiction and/or in the business of selling the stuff!. Ignore the protein myth--unless you starve yourself or only eat junk food, you're getting enough protein!.
Donald Watson, who coined the term "vegan" and created the Vegan Society lived to the age of 95!. He was vegan for 60 years!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

well I used to eat meat, until about 2years ago!.
I dunno why but I just woke up one day and had a revolution!. I haven't eaten meat since!.
I though I would miss meat so much but you get so many non-meat alternatives these days that its not really a big problem!.
I still have bacon sandwiches (veggie option obv!.) chicken curry (quorn chicken pieces) and barbeque's with veggie burgers!.
I guess vegetarian stuff may be a little more expensive for me because the rest of my family are meat eaters, but in the end it is worth it!
I don't mind at all being a vegetarian, (My friend copied me! and became one recently!)
I say it's up to you, if you want ot do it then go!.
It does not hinder your food choices at all, and there is plenty of ways to get the proper nutrition's into your body other than meat!.
Nuts, seeds, beans etc all provide protein which you get in meat!.
I say GO FOR IT! lol :)

Nah, we're not natural meat eaters, we as humans can live without eating meat!. However, something like a tiger!.!.!. If you took meat away from it, it of course would die because it is a carnivore!. We are omnivores!.
i've been vegetarian for about a year now and I've already lost weight and feel a WHOLE LOT more healthier than I ever have before! It's wonderful and you are more energetic and awake during the day!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

We're not natural meat eaters!. Our closest relatives, fellow primates, are almost completely vegan, except for an occasional termite or on rare occasion raw fish!. FWIW, I've been a healthy vegan nearly 20 years!. I never miss meat, but do on occasion eat a seitan steak sub or vegan "chicken" dish at a Chinese restaurant!. I'm really not hurtin' for meat!. And neither are the animals!. :-)Www@FoodAQ@Com
Absolutely my friend read this, one of the major advantage of going veg
A 2006 United Nations report found that the meat industry produces more greenhouse gases than all the SUVs, cars, trucks, planes, and ships in the world combined!.2 Greenhouse gases cause global warming, which studies show will increasingly lead to catastrophic disasters—like droughts, floods, hurricanes, rising sea levels, and disease outbreaks—unless we drastically reduce the amounts emitted into the atmosphere
i hope this way we can in some way contribute to this land which has given us so much
Thanks

Don't listen to Katie!. It's absolutely worth it! I feel healthier than I've ever been, and I'm always happy because I don't have any guilt about paying people to mistreat animals (which is basically what you're doing when you buy meat)!. It helps people too!.!.!. if everyone were veg, there would be no world hunger!.
Don't stop at vegetarian though!. Go all the way!.!.!. go vegan!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Ultimately only you can answer this question!. I think you're already half way there!. "I love all animals, don't want to eat them!." Take whatever negativity you hear about vegetarian's with a grain of salt!. People are naturally going to defend their individual lifestyle!. If you want the facts, visit www!.goveg!.com!. Click and read on each animal under "Meet the Animals" on the left side!. You can even order a free vegetarian starter kit!. It's not true that we need meet!. That's what the meat industry wants you to believe and pours billions of dollars into maintaining this belief!. Use your heart and do what's right for you! If this is truely what you want to do, start slow!. Cut out beef one week, then cut out poultry on top of that on the next!.!.!.And so on until you meet your goal!. There are many different levels of vegetarianism and then there's the two feet in Vegans! Whatever you do, I believe we're all doing our part!.!.!.Do whatever you can do!. I'm currently a vegetarian that eats no red meats, poultry or fish!. I do however eat eggs, cheese and drink milk!. My goal is to someday reach Vegan! Good luck and remember to do your research before starting!. It's important you know what you need to keep healthy!. Make sure you have a good two weeks worth of recipes, as cooking without meat for the first time can be a little mind boggling!.!.!.If you decide to become a veggie -- Welcome and I'm proud of you! :)Www@FoodAQ@Com
I've always been a veg and i'm fine, although its not just meat products you get meat in, you get gelatin in most sweets, wine, Champagne, yoghurt's, some beauty products, vitamins, mediciens etc!.!.!.!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
I agree with the above person!.!.!.!.
I love animals and when we can lead a healthy life being a vegetarian then why kill those innocent,speechless animals just for the sake of our taste and hunger!.Live and let live!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You put a baby in a crib
with an apple and a rabbit!.
If he eats the rabbit and plays with the apple,
I'll renounce my veganism!
Tell him to ask his mom who fed him the flesh in the first place!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
