Vegetarian & Vegan - October 2007

I don't understand this because my friend lives on a farm and has cows and chickens. She told me that if cows are not milked they will die. Why don't vegans drink milk if it is in no way harming the cow? I also don't understand what the point of not eating unfertilized eggs is. What else would happen to the eggs if people didn't eat them? Other animals would probably eat them, but that's the same as people eating them, because people are animals. Another thing I would like to point out is the fact that animals do indeed eat other animals, so why is it considered wrong for people to eat animals? Please no rude remarks because I am in no way meaning to insult anyone. I'm just confused.

I noticed at the top of the V&V section, where it says Top Contributers, that he changed his name (made me chuckle) so I clicked on his profile and he hasn't been around for a month. What the heck? I disagreed with him on a few things, but he was by far the most knowledgeable and helpful regular here (there are very close seconds so please don't get offended, Michael H et. al.) and it would be a shame if he were gone for good. I certainly hope the trolls didn't run him off. For every troll there's still five good people just looking for some info on a healthier, more compassionate diet.

I'm a vegetarian and I want to know the types of candies that are gelatin-free and those candies that are not. Can anyone give me a list? Are the fruit-flavored tootsie rolls okay to eat? How about skittles?

I need to eat more protein, but i dont eat meat. I do eat peanut and almond butter, but not enough. What are some foods that are high in protein?
If you know exactly which ones and how much that would be even better. If not, it still helps.

1. what would vegetarians say about natural carnivores such as the Big Cats, bears, snakes, etc.? should they be allowed to continue eating other living animals?

2. aren't plants and vegetables living organisms? so just because they don't appear as animate as animals, they should be eaten?

3. do you agree that ppl in impoverished regions should not be able to subsist on animals?

I killed and skinned a rabbit last week while on a survival course, I felt quite guilty afterwards and even thought about becoming a vegitarian.
So, what do you think? If you're prepared to eat an animal then should you also be prepared to kill it?

what kind of vegitarian are you?
i just dont want to eat meat.

question 3
what are some ways that i can get into being vegitarian because i like meat, i was raised on it?

question 6
i dont like tofu. its seems like one of the things that vegitarians eat. help?

Okay, so I don't eat meat except seafood. I also don't eat gelatin. Also, I'm trying to become vegan. What is that called? I've been telling people that I'm pescatarian, but I'm not sure if that's completely accurate.

I just don't get it. If you eat animals or parts of animals then you are not vegetarian why would you want the title when it just doesn't fit you?

I'm learning to keep my mouth shut to my friends/family about my new lifestyle change. I've got everything from: it's too expensive, being vegan is not healthy, kids should eat whatever they want, to - "you are weird". Wondering if any of you have gone through this and still do?

Because Dairy and seafood are very healthy and nutritious and impossible to replace from plant sources. Of course if the dairy is organic and the fish is wild even better.
