I know this gets asked a lot, but I am 15 and interested with the vegetarian lifestyle. I have thought about this on and off for the past 3 or 4 years, and have finally started to look into it. I have a lot of unanswered questions though:
1. What can I eat? I know that I cannot eat meat, but in terms of easy acces things like fast food, chips etc.
2. How can I deal with cravings?
3. What steps can I take towards my new lifestyle? (ex.-transition foods)
4. How can I tell my family? We eat meat on a regular basis and it is an important staple in family gatherings.
5. What are good substitutes for meat in terms of health and similarity in taste?
Of course I have many other questions, so anyone open to sharing their stories of how and why they became a vegetarian would be very helpful. I have done some research and decided that, for now at least, I would like to become a lacto-ovo vegetarian. I am doing this for moral reasons.
