How many veg*ns don't do it for the animals...?!


Question: How many veg*ns don't do it for the animals...?
How many of you just don't consume animal products because of the cruelty, but because you don't like it?

I used to love eating meat, but after having constant stomach problems and always being in the doctor's office, I stopped eating meat and within a week I felt better. I thought I wouldn't survive without meat, but then when I went back to trying it two weeks later my stomach nearly killed me and I felt kinda gross chewing through muscle and fat and gristle and...-shudders-

I know that I'll get a lot of flack for it, but I'm not really into the whole animal rights movement. It's strange coming from a vegetarian, I know. :/ I don't buy products that have been tested on animals or have animal by-products in them, but that's just because it kinda grosses me out that I might be washing my hair with pig pee or something like that (I don't know if that's true.. but yeah, my mind can wonder) and because testing products on creatures that won't use them is silly.

Fire away.

I cannot stand the texture of meat!!! It is tough and gristley like you said. I just don't like the taste either. But i love bbq sauce!! lol It sucks because i have nothing to put it on other than fries.

I'm a vegetarian for the animals. I think the way the animals are treated on factory farms is discusting and I don't think they should die for our taste buds because that's selfish.

My husband is. He and I are both vegetarian, but he had to move to a vegan diet because he discovered he had a casein allergy.



to each his own. you arent bothering me at all. but you should look into all beauty products. especially cosmetics. its horrifying what women will put on their faces, just because some star told them it will make them look prettier.



I personally do it for the outstanding health benefits! Everything that follows is an outstanding perk. ^_^



My brother wont eat anything that comes from an animal cause he's disgusted by animals.



Both...Health and for the animals.... It makes me feel great.



When you think of those egg that come from the chicken who spend their whole life in those small battery cells, you will not have appetite to eat it.
So, I decided to be vegan but later find that i failed whenever i am eating in restaurant.
i simply can't resist those food that have cheese in it.

So only at home i will not consume those egg/milk and daily product.
And i don't use any product that made from animal skin.(this one i am ok)

A vegetarian who failed to be a vegan!
