    Okaaaay. I'm a pescatarian. I do what's right for me and keep my mouth shut around others. However, if the subject of factory farming arises, I'm not going to keep my mouth shut. I don't have qualms with people eating meat, I have BIG problems with industrial farming. Still, I don't want to eat meat even if it comes from a lovely little family farm.

    This year I'm working on finding humane sources for dairy. And seafood that isn't overfished.

    Good luck finding any type of seafood that is not over- fished! Humans are very, very good at fishing.

    I wonder what sparked this thread??

    That had better be non-dairy butter on that popcorn, buddy. Don't make me go "that vegetarian" on you.

    I love this ^^^^

    In my personal experience, most people that are the loud judgement types when it comes to ways of eating are more into it just for that reason. The people I know that do it for themselves rarely bring it up, and then only when it applies such as a food conversation or something.

    Some people just like to judge other people. Sadly it applies to people in all walks of life, and many ways of eating. It seems to me the worst offenders often judge others in a much different way than they judge themselves. What a waste of energy IMO.

    I like vegetarians, but I can never eat a whole one.

    To be honest, If I were hungry enough, and if it were legal - I would turn cannibal. Lets face it, humans are over-populated anyway, lets thin down the population by eating them. Apparently we taste like chicken

    And we're the only animal aside from pork which makes crackling.

    If somebody doesn't eat enough may well get leukemia, giving them some small portions of fish could help them not to get it.

    Same all over (except I'm lacto ovo veg). If they don't bring it up, I don't bring it up. :)
