Are you a vegetarian ?

No. It's terrible for you, the environment, third world countries, and hundreds of species of animals.

BQ: I can't. I have food allergies, so I'd be living of little more than lettuce, assorted fruits, eggs, milk, and water. I'd die.

BQ: No and I don't plan to. I can't have soy.

I consider myself semi-vegetarian. I don't generally eat meat, it's too heavy of a meal for me. However, I do like cheeseburgers and rotisserie chicken and chicken tenders, I just don't eat them often. Actually I probably only have meet once or twice a month. Mostly I stick with lean meats (other than burgers, they're just too darn good) and a heaping side of veggies and fruits. I get protein through beans and other sources. I do not believe in the "it's cruel to animals" side of vegetarianism though.

BQ- ya, I've done it before. I went a solid four months and had no problems, but I already don't eat a lot of meat, so it was quite easy.

BQ2- I like veggies burgers. I actually like bean burgers better though.

Yup. Well, technically I'm a pescetarian, but most people don't know what that is. :P And I don't eat fish very often, either. I love it, I feel much healthier than I do when I eat meat.

I'd never judge people for eating meat, as it's a personal decision, but I just don't like eating meat. Especially after reading The Omnivore's Dilemma and watching Food, Inc. and really understanding where meat comes from, and the horror of factory farms.

BQ: Obviously, as I am now.

BQ: Yes, I love veggie burgers!

I have been a pescetarian for 5 years (but don't eat a lot of fish and no shellfish) and i love it. Veggie burgers are very tasty and if you look at different brands you get ones with 60cal/1g fat each. Bean burgers are also great and full of protein. If you can find them or go to a veggie restaurant, you also get tofu burgers which are so good if cooked/flavoured right.

Almost every basic recipe can be adapted to vegetarian and are almost always healthier with a much lower fat content. It can be quite challenging to be a vegetarian to begin with if you’re used to eating a lot of meat, but in the long term it’s very rewarding.

As for not having a lot of animal fat in your body, most vegetarian products have far less saturated fat in them and I know that vegetarian’s have white fat cells rather than yellow (though I don’t know the specifics of why).

To be honest I doubt being vegetarian doesn't really make you 'healthier'

To be healthier you need to just eat the right food. No McDonalds crap.

You need the protein. Like fish, and chicken.

No crusty hot dogs or bacon.

LOL I cant STAND Tofu.

Like the texture is really weird :/.

BQ: No, I could not live without Chicken and Honey Ham on Thanksgiving. To be honest, even if I wanted to go I couldn't. My parent's don't support it and wouldn't purchase things I need to get the Iron I need and the protein. Being vegetarian can be a little expensive you know.

Your body was made to hunt and kill and eat meat..

BQ2: Yes, I can't stand it. I don't even like real burgers. (Don't eat beef because I actually don't like it, not because it's a life style)

I am one!

Bq: Well yeah, i'm actually thinking of becoming vegan :)

Bq: OMG I love veggie burgers! Vegetarian sausage is the worst though, Ew.

No. I don't eat much meat, but that's just because I don't really like it. I'll have chicken like once a week though. I could easily become a vegetarian, it wouldn't be changing much.

BQ: Maybe

BQ: No I've never tried them. I'm kinda afraid to

Yes, I've been one since August or October of last year (nearly a year, still going strong!) I never had a real love for meat, after my early childhood years of McDonald's waned down, and thought it would be good for eating healthier alternatives.

Since then, I've grown to love different vegetables, grains and soups, and love cooking more. And veggieburgers. Always veggieburgers.

BQ2: I love them. The good ones, anyway, because there's good ones and bad ones. Good news is, from the good kind there's many different flavors you can get. And they're cheap to buy. My go-to brand is Morning Star, which is easy to find (just any frozen food section).

Nope! I don't eat much meat, but I could never give it up. And I personally don't think that being vegetarian is healthier anyway.

BQ: no

BQ: never tried them

No I'm not.

BQ: Not really. I love animals sure, but I love meat too.

BQ: Never tried them but I would if I had the chance.

I couldnt give up my meat. I LOVE my meat!! Hmm now Im hungry for some chicken...

BQ: Hell no!!!

BQ: Nope and never will! I only like the beef burgers.
