Of course I turn this into more reasons not to have children. I am vegetarian, I made a poor attempt at vegan but will get there once frozen yogurt stops being a love of mine..

To be perfectly honest, I haven't managed vegan yet, I do try though. I haven't eaten meat for 13 years...and I find the whole concept of meat eating completely distressing. I just don't understand it at all.

I don't want to preach to people, but there is no good argument for eat animals, not one.

I kinda figured that with your cheese sandwiches. But that's not the flesh of an animal.. I find that pretty icky. I watch my roommate prepare steak and see the blood with a slight fascination and curiosity... How does it not seem disgusting? I would really not like preparing meat. We'd all be better off eating more veggies.

The health nuts I know that eat meat and question me always bring up protein. I just give up arguing there are plant based forms.

Well tofu, beans, nuts and seeds, and 'meat free' alternatives like quorn have on average, just as much protein as meat...only without the bowel cancer! It baffles me. Protein is not a good enough reason for murder. I hate people.
