I am so sick of closed minded carnivores coming up to me saying "umm, you really need to be watching your diet. Where are you getting your protein? Where are you getting your calcium? You know, you're totally not getting your nutrients"

you know, i am SORRY but i am getting every nutrient that those people are, and youknow what? My arteries are

i know exactly what you mean. i tried to explain to someone what veganism was the other day and they were like 'oh my god, that is so stupid and so unhealthy.'

if done correctly, being vegan/vegetarian is so much healthier than eating meat.

it kills me when people are close minded. its a personal decision, and in my opinion, a very very good decision.

are you going to stick with veg?

Just today someone who used to be vegan but now eats meat again asked me why I didn't eat "real" food. The fact that this person once undersood why I do what I do made the question that much more confusing.

Also, some of the people I live with are continuously saying things like "Man, this cheeseburger is REALLY good!" while they glance over at me and my fellow meatless friends. I hope one day they realize they're pissing me off; not because I'm jealous of them, because that's not the case at all, but because they're ignorant.

Katie, you, me, the world. It's on. Just to weigh in on this, I don't know whether vegetarianism is healthier or not, because I'm not a dietician, and I've heard convincing arguments from both sides, so I won't voice a judgement.

I will say that I quit eating meat, not for health reasons, just because I think its the right thing to do.

You should come to morehead, and stay at my apartment. We'll have a nice vegetarian meal together.

In food news I bought a rice cooker the other day, and its amazing. I am seriously cutting back on the meats hardcore, and should eventually eliminate them completely.
