LACTO-VEGETARIANS: Isn't eating yogurt "wrong?"?
Is it OK to kill an animal if you need a microscope to see it, even if it is raised exclusively for consumption?

There is alot of mixed up reasoning with vegetarianism to me. Did you know that for every acre of wheat that is harvested, 30 animals (rats, moles, mice) are killed? This wouldn't happen if the land was left for cattle to graze on. Either way my friends just say "as long as it doesn't feel pain" its ok. Bacteria don't feel pain. Sort of seems odd to me.
For one, you need therapy. For two, yogurt replaces the good bacteria (flora) in our systems. Be happy thinking that you are just giving it a new life as it would have died otherwise. Think of your body as a big (fish=bacteria) tank. Feed the little guys well with lots of fibre and keep the sugars and starches down. Keep eating yogurt!!! It has so many health benefits!
this had nothing to do with your question ( my apologies) but you left me an answer that i wasnt really liking. you told me i spelled "passed" wrong and you suggested "past" but in my dictionary passed means to move on or proceed, to extend to gain passage through or to get through and past means event having existed in an earlier time, no longer current or earlier than present time so before you go trying to insult my spelling which is gramaticlly correct check yours ( just in case you didnt grasp this you used the wrong adverb wrong tense
BACTERIA IS NOT AN ANIMAL. BACTERIA GROWS WITHIN THE HUMAN SYSTEM TO ASSIST WITH ITS FUNCTIONS. THE LIVE ACTIVE CULTURES DO NOT COUNT AS INDEPENDENT ORGANISMS.
If people limited their food consumption to things that didn't have bacteria or any living microscopic creatures, they'd likely starve to death.
The amount of living creatures we eat, that we never know about or see, would be mind boggling if brought to our attention.
SOMETHING dies with creation/harvest/preparation/c... of most things we humans eat...it's just the way of the world and the cycle of life...
bacteria is an organism but not an animal it cant feel
if you think eating everything is wrong go anorexic
yogurt is grose. and also most kinds contain geletin which is made up of boiling animal skin and hooves.
murdering an animal is never "ok".
I don't suppose you bathe, wash your dishes and take antibiotics when you're ill. We kill micro-organisms constantly so I am not sure what the difference is between ingesting them where they get to feed on what we put in our tummies or washing them down the drain. Oh, bacteria aren't considered animals - they're a type of organism that is neither plant or animal.
What the hell are you talking about? There are no microscopic animals in yogurt. Bacteria are not animals.
Most woman need that. It keeps thei huhmmmm healthy. As it is to raise animals spacifially for food,I personally wouldnt do it or want to see it,but if I enjoyed eating it I would. You only live once,you and the animals, so I believe in sharing the experience.
no
bacteria is an organism but not an animal it cant feel! AND NO!
Enzymes are not animals, but they are living so I guess you have to set your own rules. Yogurt is vegetarian but you have to read the ingredients somethings they put gelatin, which is not vegetarian.
