Tomorrow is Thanksgiving; the celebratory feast between friends and family. This will be my 26th Thanksgiving, and all the ones that preceded this one were enjoyed with a traditional turkey dinner, whether I was with family or alone. Well, I've been a vegetarian for several months now and I haven't really made any exceptions... But I'm considering making an exception for tomorrow. My reasons for vegetarianism are ethical/spiritual, but in the event of this Thanksgiving dinner with friends, I feel it's an important enough ritual to celebrate in a traditional fashion, especially since the blood has already been shed and many others will be partaking in the animal's flesh. (Whoa, sorry for making it sound so dramatic) Anyways, I'm going to see how I feel about it tomorrow before I really decide what I'm going to do... In the meantime, I'd love to hear your feedback. Also, will eating meat actually make me sick if I haven't had it for a while? Thanks.
