    My daughter is one. Wont eat meat after watching an undercover documentary about one of the Bernard Mathews factories where the workers were kicking **** out of the turkeys.
    Nee bother with that but she wont eat veg but eats lots of fish.

    Vegetarians, not sure about weird but some...well quite a few in fact...do it for some unknown reason on a whim, but then sometime later, maybe days, weeks, months eat meat again for the craving.

    Funny part about it, albeit vegetarians are of many categories, yes they really are, some proclaimed veggies have not got a clue what they are actually eating, as that so called vegetarian. Just mention the word gelatin contained in many products, and eventually they will begin to realise they are not as vegetarian as they first thought. Maybe that good old veggie loves a tipple, not realising that it may be made from animal derived products!

    And for the good ole vegetarian that thinks they are safe with stuff like peanuts....oh dear, they best do their research and think again :)

    Now yes they could just eat vegetables and drink water as said above but what about those all important other vitamins the body requires, hence supplements required.

    Might have to go into more depth than that unless you're alright with us thinking that you think peanuts are meat.

    Haddock-atarians! <laugh> Well, a fish diet's good for the heart and circulation, Billy. I'm told Eskimos didn't know what a heart attack or stroke was until they met white men. The danger is, if it's taken to Eskimo levels, the blood-flow from e.g. a cut won't haemorrhage - you just keep bleeding! I hope she finds a happy medium.

    Veggie meals are cracking if you go to the right restaurant.

    In my experience, vegetarians cannot stop farting. Smelly buggers...

    Just goes to show the old saying about "fish for brains" has credence, bet she does not need specs either if she is into carrots as well.

    You've got a decision to make now old son, ditch your pies and get into fish and change your name to Piethagorous.

    Good idea mate but she does wear contact lenses.
