I tried to go veggie once. It became too expensive, and my cravings for flesh raised tenfold.

I think the only reason anyone should be a vegitarian is if they are allergic, or for some some medical reason not able to eat meat.

Meat is really good for ya! And occasionally a burger is ok, but a balanced diet is what ya need Wink


I think if someone has made the decision to not eat meat, then the people they go to visit should respect that decision and offer an alternative. And the vegetarian shouldn't just spring it on the person they're visiting the day before they go. Usually some accomodation can be made, and if not there is usually a salad or fruit at least. No meal is all meat (unless you're on the Atkins Diet). One other reason people don't eat meat is relgious belief.

my mom dosent offer alternatives.
they either eat what she severs or they dont eat.
or they don't have to come. (side dishes usualy dont fill you up as a meal)
my mom dosent acommidate for people who don't eat what she spent hours preparing.
besides, there is only one non-meat eater in our family.
and dinners consist of like 12 people sometimes.
shes isnt going out of her way for one person.
but yea. they can jsut eat salad. but they cant hog it all. we want some too.

I take full credit (fault) for this not going away as it was destined to when I just had to defend the honor of the great state of Wisconsin 4 days ago. Whoever has not posted unwisely may cast the first stone.
