Do you ever get the urge to eat meat? i am being serous.?!


Question: do all you vegitarians ever get the urge to eat meat. i mean do you walk by a hamburger shop and just think, that looks good. even for a second. i mean i understand that you don't eat it because of it being mean to animals, but if you ate meat at one point don't you ever kinda want it. like a craving.

Oh yeah...I've been vegetarian for about 5 years now. I definitely get cravings for meat. My weaknesses are BBQ in the spring/summer---and turkey, ham, etc. around the holidays...I got great insight about this from a wonderful Indian woman who grew up as a vegetarian in Kenya. She told me that when she first came to the U.S., the smell of McD's and BK made her sick to her stomach. I realized that we only really crave this stuff because we had it before....In other words, we are conditioned. Some smells, tastes and textures are related to comfortable and pleasant times in our lives--hence "comfort foods." Clearly, we do not need any of this to survive or live happily. It's just deep conditioning...Again, if you never had it, you wouldn't crave it--and your body doesn't need it....It really is all in our head....

yo i always get the urge to eat meat..........ya know what i mean

i was but it didnt last long. but i think anyone who is really serious about it is disgusted by the whole idea, therefore they don't get the urge to eat meat.

yeah, but i don't

Yes, sometimes I feel I need to have red meat. Most of the time i have the urge I do not eat it anyway.

i don't eat very much meat but like the meat i don't eat yea do get the urge to tyhou :( but i don't eat it

I'll tell you what. It's hard to walk into an
OUTBACK and order the chef's salad,
when they have all that steak on the
menu.

I have been vegetarian for 23 years and meat doesn't appeal to me at all.

I used to eat meat, but there's also candy I liked when I was a little kid that I couldn't imagine eating now.

Don't get the urge to eat meat
If i want a hamburger i eat a veggie burger

The smell off meat kinda bothers me now

I have been a vegetarian for 25 years, and No, I never have the urge to meat meat, actually even the smell makes me sick.

No. Sometimes I get the urge for Morningstar :D

the thought of it is sickening.

Well sometimes, we just see something and want it immediately, but it passes after several minutes.

No because as a flexitarian vegetarian I can eat meat.

no

Occasionally I might feel like I want to, but if I think about it I realise I really don't want it.

I personally do not ever crave meat. I think of meat I see differently than I once did(before I was vegetarian). Before I became vegetarian I didn't see the meat as a former animal, just food. I look at the meat I see much differently now. I can see the creature it once was and imagine the fear, pain and torment it must have went through. When I see meat I can't look past the fact that it is something dead sitting on the kitchen table. The thought of putting somethings dead flesh into my mouth is repulsive to me.

No, I had a craving for a cold roast beef sandwich in 1987, but none since then. I don't consider it food, so why would I crave it? That would be like craving cotton or mud or roses for lunch.

Yes. I usually cheat, like all vegetarians, and have some.

No sir. I'm not disgusted by it, but It doesn't look appetizing to me, either. I'm just indifferent.

Just because something smells good, doesn't mean that I want to put it in my mouth.

nope i never get a craving for meat, and im actually repulsed by the smell of say mcdonalds for example. it just smells like greese....greese was never appetizing to me and i dont see why it would to anyone else...sick

Not only do I get the urge to eat meat, but I will also get this crazy urge to drink water too. Weird huh?
