To go back to what ER said, why is eating what was once a living thing (cabbage, tomatoes, lentils etc) morally any different to eating lamb or beef? Does the lack of personality make it easier to stomach whilst murdering?
for the record im not turning veggie cos i give a **** about animals etc im just doin it for an experiment to see what its like. i'll post the pros and cons in jew course. name me some tasty vegitarian dinners
Precisely Jordan. None of the murdering vegeterians will answer it because they know it is cold brutal murder. Hypocrites, every one of them.
Just cook meals that you'd normally make but replace the meat with Quorn, but add some extra garlic/chilli/herbs to make it more exciting. Stir frys are always good too, they get pretty boring after a while though... I tend to eat loads of pasta because I'm lazy, but I have a shelf full of different cheeses and make my own sauce. Otherwise pimped salads are great, learn how to make vinaigrette and add random stuff in you wouldn't normally (apples/carrots/nuts/croutons/boiled eggs/grapes/...)
There are micro-organisms everywhere around you, so every time you touch something or eat anything that isn't alive (like an apple falling off a tree) you're killing something. I'm not some weird superhippy, I just don't eat dead animals (or fish), but you're probably too stupid to understand
cheers toby, well i'll do my best to stick to it and i'll even give quorn another go. bet i eat meat before monday.

This is a dilemma. Getting on for 7 Billion of us on the planet and to sustain the levels of meat & fish consumption has resulted in the depletion of fertile areas across the world and a reduction of alarming levels in stocks in our rivers and oceans. It makes perfect sense to eat more sustainable products such as pulses and vegetables as they take less resources to grow and harvest than growing food for domestic meat animals to eat. Obesity is spreading (no pun intended) to previously poverty stricken areas such as China and India and weight is going to be the over riding health issue of the coming century. On the other hand.......
