I would like to try being a vegetarian again?!


Question: I would like to try being a vegetarian again!?
Over the summer my friend became a vegetarian after we saw this video on animal slaughter and i tried it too, after about a month i cracked when everyone was shoving chicken wings( my favorite food) in my face!. Well my friend is still holding strong and i would like to try it again!. My family eats meat just about every night, and we all eat together so i cant avoid it!. Any tips on how to hold strong!? also i hate boca burgers so what are some good supplements!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Congratulations on your decision to be vegetarian!. It's mostly little kids that shove food in your face, so if you can survive that for a while longer, it gets much easier later on!. Hopefully you can get your parents to support you at least enough that they can omit the meat from a portion of what they are cooking, because that's pretty easy to do!. Often you can eat what they are eating and just change it up a tiny bit!. For example, if they are having pasta with meat in it, heat up some sauce and use the same noodles!. If you're having burritos, use refried beans instead of the meat!. I don't like Boca Burgers much either!. Try Garden Burgers, they taste a whole lot better!. If you don't know how to cook very well yet, learn!. Some things that are easy and healthy are: veggie and cheese sandwiches, bean burritos, stir-fried veggies with rice or pasta or tofu, eggplant parmesan!. In between meals snack on some veggies with dip or any fruit or a sandwich!. I suggest taking a multivitamin every day!. Good luck!.

@Daniel: how about you just answer the question or shut up dipsh**!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Animal meat is flesh just like Human Flesh (with cell, blood etc), so carcass = human corpse … we are eating corpse!

When we eat meat, our stomach function like a cremation process …

Our refrigerator (freezer where we keep frozen meat) is just like mortuary …

Do you like places like mortuary, crematorium!? Yet we are living with it everyday (our refrigerator & stomach, intestine …)

If you don't like how other treat you ljust like how the animals are treated, might help you to stop eating meat!. There are lots of other substitues, we do have mock ham, mock steak, mock stuff in vegetarian shops or stall which help vegetarian to stop their craving if any!.

Build on your compassionate heart, you will be able to hold strong!. A vow to help you to stick to it!. At the end of the day, if you can stay on being a vegetarian, you can assure yourself, I have the determination and it is an achievement!.

All the best !.!.!. your friend is great!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

the best thing you can do is cook your own food!.!.!. are you old enough to work!? If you have the money, buy your own groceries and look up vegetarian recipes online or get a vegetarian cookbook!. Take a look at the vegetarian food pyramid, and make sure you eat beans and nuts (figure out how much protein you need daily) and vegetables are really important too! Do a lot of research and have fun!. And don't make that one PETA video your only reason for not eating meat, not eating meat helps the environment too! Think like "by not eating meat there will be less pollution and less world hunger"!. It always makes me happy and proud being vegan!.!.!. And just have fun with it!. I'm always looking up new recipes!. You can also go on youtube and watch videos where people talk about being vegetarian/vegan and you won't feel so alone!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There are a LOT more factory farm videos NOT posted by pets!.
Not one thing can suppliment meat, a few things can!. Try to follow this-http://www!.vegsource!.com/nutrition/pyram!.!.!.

And if you ever feel like giving up, watch the documentary earthlings!.
omg!.!.!.!.!.its not by peta and it shows you all the horrible things we do to the innocent creatures of this earth!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I hate boca burgers, and my whole family eats meat around me every day, too!. Usually I have to make my own meal or if we're having spaghetti or something my mom just leaves the meat out of the sauce and I put some tofu in!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Maybe you could just eat the side dishes instead of the meat main dish!. Or cook dinner yourself some nights, like make a vegetarian stew or stir fry or something!. Your family can eat everything all together then and you won't have to worry about it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

vegetarianism is like a stupid colt!.!.!. seriously get real!.!.!. if a lion saw your a ss, he would eat you!.!.!.!. so its only logical to say that you do the same!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Cheeseasy ,girl!. Look, so long as the animal is slaughtered with mercy, it's ok!. I know what you mean by those animal slaughter videos!. My brother, he eats meat!. He LOVES meat, but if the place the animal is slaughtered act more like animals than the animals they are killing, then he won't eat it!. Just get on the internet, find out how the company kills its beasts, and go from there!. By the way, being vegetarian isn't all that healthy!. You NEED meat!.
also, you think WE'RE bad!?!! Look at what animals do to EACH OTHER! Talk about brutality! We can be WAY more merciful than they are!. Trust me, just look for the company that treats its animals most kindly when dealing with the beasts death!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You might be happy to know that that video you saw was most likely a staged peta video!. Peta's videos are no more "reality based" then the Star Wars movies are!. Peta was even found guilty of clubbing seals to death because the initial "shock footage" they shot was not shocking enough!.

Be happy and eat your chicken wings! =]Www@FoodAQ@Com
