i wouldn't be far off, people annoy me with the 'why are you vegitarian?' question, especially because when you explain they turn it into a debate and to be perfectly honest, i don't want to be convinced eating meat is alright. and my gran always says, 'ooh, i would be a vegitarian like you.' but she doesn't have an answer when you ask why not. and my cousin is a vegitarian unless someone's making bacon sandwiches. evidently the animal-loving vein runs through my family.
It's even worse in the US because if you don't eat meat, not only are you weird, but you're unpatriotic or something. Fortunately in SoCal it's not so out of the ordinary so people don't harass you (as much, anyway) but there are also lots and lots of place to buy vegetarian, both shops and restaurants.
