Answers:
Yes, my exboyfriend has been vegetarian for 4 years!.
My current boyfriend 1 year!.

Coworker A, 2 months ( probably will last)
Coworker B, 3 weeks ( don't have hopes it'll last)

Helps to save a bit of yummy dinner dishes to bring to work and offer them samples!.

(PS- Yes vegetarianism can be due to religion as well- 7th day christian adventists are vegetarians, so are traditional buddhists and hindus!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com

I haven't deliberately but I nearly did once by accident when my friend asked me what gelatin is made of and when I told her she considered becoming a veggie!.
I wouldn't try to convert anyone to vegetarianism, I think people should do it under their own steam and not be pressured!. I don't want to be like those people who go preaching and say stuff like 'If you don't agree with my religion you're a bad person!.'Www@FoodAQ@Com

I am not a veggie but don't eat a great deal of meat just because i am not a great lover of it!. This is my choice and my choice alone!. I do not have a problem with people "educating me" (if that is the right term) but i get well pissed off when people try to "convert me" I am an adult and i fully understand that some animals r treating very badly for meat which doesn't really sit comfortably with me and for this i do try and buy free range (doesn't always happen and i will not feel guilty about it) but i also respect that not every body cares or has the money to do this!.
Do people try and convert you to eating meat!?!?!? Www@FoodAQ@Com

No i eat meat!. Its beneficial!. I have anaemia, and i needa eat meat!.

You just made vegetarianism sound like a religion!.!. lol!.

Vegetarianism isnt making a difference in the world!. If you want to make a difference, go on a mission to africa to build orphanages or something!. Or do something for the environment!. This planet is crumbling!.


Have a nice day =)Www@FoodAQ@Com

I wouldn't even try to bring anyone over to the dark side!.

Joking, but seriously, it's a big deal and it has to be a personal choice!. It's not my place to criticise someone for what they eat!. I got my mam to eat vegetarian food for a week but that was just because I cooked for the week while everyone else was away!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No!. I try to avoid discussing my dietary choices if at all possible!. (As a raw vegan, it's too much to go into for casual conversation!.)

My husband no longer eats much meat- but that's probably because I don't cook it!.

I did consider it a bit of a victory when my parents quit ordering foie gras and veal in restaurants, however!.

And of course it makes a difference- everything does: what you purchase, what you consume, what you believe, what you drive, what you throw away!.!.!. everything!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I wouldn't want to convert anyone!. For them to stick to it, it would have to be there choice!.

I used to make animal noises when my niece ate meat!. She turned vegi for a few years then went back to eating meat!. I then realised that what I did was a bit immature!.

It's peoples choice!Www@FoodAQ@Com

You make it sound like a cult :D
I would never convince anyone into being a veggie!. First of all its unhealthy, secondly if you dont eat it someone else will so you wont make a blind bit of difference to the worldWww@FoodAQ@Com

4 of my friends!. Actually i just showed them a vid!. Of a modern day farm and they where all sick to three stomachs and have been veggie for 3 weeks now with my help!.=)Www@FoodAQ@Com

2 of my mates became veggie after I did
And now most of my family don't eat meat, I didn't force them to but they saw magazines and stuff I had about the conditions animals are kept in which influenced them!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, I don't "convert" anyone!.

If someone is genuinely interested, then I answer their questions about the diet, but I never put pressure on anyone to become veg!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

no cus i love to eat meat and trying to put me off eating meat by telling am pigs or cows or watnot is really immature it has happend to me a couple of times EATING CHICKENS PIGS COWS AND LAMBS IS GREAT Www@FoodAQ@Com

I haven't converted anyone to anything because I don't think it's my place to convince anyone of anything!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well there are two friends of mine who became a vegetarian because of me but I didn't force them to!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No because I'm not a vegetarian and i love my meat :P But if people want to be a vegetarian then don't let anyone stand in your way!Www@FoodAQ@Com

hahaha---- its not a belief!.
your eating veggies is a choice --not a belief or a religion!.!.!.!. you cant turn anyone----ha--"see this cow has feelings too"haha---im gonna go get me a mig mac---ya ever heard of those!. a cow died for my hamburger!.!.!.yummWww@FoodAQ@Com
