    I'm doing my part in keeping the lesser species from taking over the world. Planet of the Apes was a direct result of an entire vegan society. *nods sagely*

    Because I'm at the top of the food chain and I'll eat anything I damn well please. Want a good argument? Here it is. It's my world, and the animals live in it so I shall eat them.

    Humans have been surviving all through evolution by being meat eaters...there are health factors in the meat we eat. Our species survived this long, so it must be a good thing. Science just makes sense in my book!

    I'm not a carnivore, but I can relate because I enjoy eating meat. It's fun, that's why.

    It put me through college...seriously, I didn't have to pay for my undergrad because my dad's meat distribution company did well enough that my college fund was full when I went to school.

    Oh, and because it's delicious, gives me sufficient protein, and did I mention that it's delicious?

    However, I just don't get it. There has never been a good argument presented to me why someone would want to eat a dead animal.

    Well, they dont like it when we eat them when they are alive. They move to much.:smokin:

    LOL :laugh: Good point!

    It tastes good, especially bloody! Plants taste like dirt to me.

    Ok, I am probably going to offend some, but it’s not my intention.

    However, I just don't get it. There has never been a good argument presented to me why someone would want to eat a dead animal. I figure because whenever I ask “why”, the silly carnivores almost always get offended.

    So why?

    And please remove all of the “I like my meat rare” answers. That stuff is just nasty.

    It tastes great. Besides that...........I try to stay away from Soy.....As a vegetarian......How would you suggest getting 180+ grams of protein in without eating meat or soy? for around 2k cals?

    XSport Fitness 100% Whey Protein - 60 grams for 3 scoops... egg whites for breakfast 12 grams... greek yogurt 12 grams ... assorted nuts 6 grams... protein bar - 30 grams ... fake meat substitutes 12-20 grams each... IDK how I do it, but I am over on protein everyday. I am pretty sure my diary is open if you are really curious and not just being a meany.

    Seriously.

    I eat meat, but not as much as I used to. I go meatless on weekends for my own health and to lower my carbon footprint, but I eat it because we are naturally opportunistic eaters. As such, we would eat meat, albeit not often, if we were still running around in the wilderness. Granted, it would be super rare for us to take down something as big as a cow, so when I eat meat, I tend towards things like chicken. Our bodies are built to consume both meat and plants. Though it's possible, it is difficult to get complete proteins without eating meat.

    We eat animals because they are made out of meat. I can't figure out why anyone would EVER eat a beet. Or a brussel sprout. Bleah.

    Because I just can't bear the idea of swooping down on some poor defenseless plant that lacks the mobility to attempt any form of escape, tearing it from the ground, deaf to it's tiny, agonized plant screams and them dismembering it brutally before eating it. That stuff just creeps me out. There's something wrong with those people.
