Are you a vegetarian or vegan?

[SG19]

Personally, I'm neither. I hate animal cruelty, but it would be hard to give up meat, especially seafood.

[Metal Snake]

Yeah, I'm neither either (heh heh, "neither either"...). Although meat is something I could go without, I just don't feel any sort of calling to do so. That, and well-prepared meat tastes pretty damn good.

[Katniss]

I'm neither, though I respect people who are as long as they don't judge people who do eat meat. I did try becoming vegetarian when I was thirteen but that only lasted a few days because I started to miss chicken  

[Nosferatu!]

I'm neither as well, though I've known people who are. No beef (ha... hahaha!) against those who choose to be, as long as they aren't vindictive about it.

If I was a vegetarian, I'd die from hunger in less than a week.

I'm actually thinking about going vegetarian. Surprisingly, there's a lot of choices you can have while you're vegetarian, and a lot of vegetarian food tastes great, healthy, and affordable. In fact, when I went on a vegetarian week, I found that I was spending less at the grocery store because I wasn't purchasing meat, which can be pricy.

There's also a common belief that vegetarians are deprived of important nutrients (namely protein) that is completely not true. Americans eat a lot of meat compared to the rest of the world (I think I read that the average American eats 200 lbs. of meat a year), so there's a stigma that vegetarians don't receive the protein and nutrients provided by that meat, thus being unhealthy. This is far from the case. Most Americans actually have too much protein in their diet as a result of eating all of that meat. Vegetarians actually get a proper amount of protein in their diet.

A good challenge that I personally liked is having "vegetarian days". That is, pick two or three days in a week that you won't eat meat. It's actually not as hard as you think it is!

[WhoBibbles]

I'm neither. I like eating both, tho I prefer meat over vegetables.

[Cha]

i'd die without burgers and chicken man, no way

[The Drifter]

I think a good way to see whether you actually like meat or not is to go visit your local slaughterhouse and see the slaughter in all it's gory glory.

[Jane]

Neither. My parents won't let me.

[E.V.I.L.]

I need my burgers.

 

[illiniguy34]

Neither, I need my meats. 

[Guest]

Neither. This is a matter of loaf or death here. 

[CDCB]

Proud to be neither. Meat. Is. Life.

[Sauce Mama]

I have always said that if chicken and burgers didn't exist, I'd definitely be a vegetarian by now.

[crushingmayhem]

Neither, I eat meat on a regular basis but only white meat. We pretty much banned red meat from our house. Might be nice to go vegan but I can't afford it.

[Old Man Jenkins]

I'm a carnivore for life. The furthest I'd probably go would be pescatarian.

[NegiSpongie]

What's the difference between the two? I thought both were just terms for people who didn't eat meat.

Vegetarians don't eat meat but vegans abstain from eating any animal products, like eggs and dairy
