I'm a vegetarian. And we were in a group, and a guy in the group who fancies me yesterday must have said about 3 times 'I don't like hurting animals ever' and I think he was probably just saying it because he knew I am vegetarian, but anyway, eventually when he said 'I don't like hurting animals ever' for the like 3rd time, I said 'But you don't mind eating them' but I wasn't being really serious, I just laughed. Was I justified? I know it's something I shouldn't be worrying about or anything, but I'm just wondering what you thought? If that was okay to say?

I have a bit of leftover firm tofu, but not too much time. Do you know anything quick simply and tasty I can make with it? Without any fancy ingredients -- I live in India, and available ingredients are limited...

I drive a truck to work. I use to much gas.
I eat a burger. Now I'm a killer.
I have a plasma TV. now I'm killing the earth.
I have a Classic Mustang. OK they love Classic cars to. Look at all the broken down POS they drive. But their still P.Oed I had the seat covered with leather!

I think it has something to do with the lack of protein in their diets.
Is it just me or is there really a reason for their behavior?

Since vegetarians don't eat meat, do eggs count since it's with the "meat" catagory? Also, how do vegetarians get protein if they don't eat burgers and such?

Sorrry if this has been asked before. But let's say you have a pizza and the only type left has pepperoni (yes, i eat cheese. i'de be vegan if i weren't only 14=/), would it be okay to just take off the pepperoni? I thought it would be okay, but my friend who doesn't eat pork won't do that because it's been "contaminated" or somethingg. Or, to give another example, yesterday someone told me to try this salad and right after I served it they told me it has bacon in it so I just tried to find all of the bacon and put it to the side and not eat it. But I still felt bad after.
So anyways, do you tthink that is okay for a vegetarian to do?
Thanks=)

We are having our Thanksgiving tomarrow. So almost everyone here who is going to celebrate has..so your recipe was tested on Thursday. If it was good can I have the recipe? I want to make a brown gravy for my tofu turkey. AND NO I prefer not to just buy one. I love to cook. SO since you guys have already tested it out for sure...spill. Now you have to include all the details unless they are a given. K. Thanx guys.

Oh a mushroom gravy or something like that would go good too. It's not a Tofurkey..I made it myself...but the seasonings are almost exactly the ones you put on a real dead turkey......rosemary..celery..oninon..herbs that are in a normally herb stuffing...not going to name them all but you get the picture of what it's going to taste like. If you think some other gravy might go good by all means share......always willing to try new things that sound tasty.

I'm thinking about becoming a vegetarian because I don't like seeing animals get tortured anymore. I'll probably go cold turkey for a while because I'm new to this so it's hard. I've been a meat eater and meat lover all my life. But now I feel a little uncomfortable & guilty when I eat a cheeseburger or anything that contains meat. I can probably give up meat, cheese, eggs, milk, and anything else that involves animals, but I don't know if I can give up yogurt (frozen too) and ice cream because I love them! Can I still eat yogurt? I can probably give up ice cream and substitute it for frozen yogurt because they taste the same, but yogurt is also dairy, so what to do? I've tried those soy ice cream and they're nasty so I'm never going to eat them again! Plus, one other problem is that I love this Thai curry chicken w/noodles dish and it's my favorite food but now I'm sad I have to let it go. I mean, I know I can eat it without the chicken but it wouldn't taste the same.

I m talkin abt the eating habits....is there any race that has a difference in eating habits or if v say whats the main idea behind that human is veg or non-veg ??

I understand the vegan diet avoids meat and dairy, and even honey. Why is bread (yeast) allowed? I would think that eating yeast as a living organism would be more of a violation of the tenets of the diet than eating something like honey. Can somebody explain this?

I see all these posts of people that don't eat meat for moral reasons, and many of these same people will eat dairy.

From a humane prospective, eating dairy is worse than eating meat. There is a sound reason for this fact. Few would argue that Veal is at the top of the anti-morality argument for meat. Well, Veal is a product of the dairy industry, not the beef industry. In order for a cow to make milk, the cow needs to be pregnant (I think we can all agree here). Pregnant cows have babies. So the dairy industry has this problem of baby cows being born, and wanted to turn a side profit on this aspect of their industry. Easy solution, Sell veal.

I understand that my comments only apply to dairy eating vegetarians and specifically those that are doing it for moral reasons (I won't bother getting into a debate on the health aspect of the equation).
It very much seems that this fact seems to be lost on a lot of people. What do you think?

Ok, while fish are animals they are not considered meat. There seems to be huge debates on this. Vegeterians can eat seafood and still refrain from meat ex. beef, lamb, pork... Most vegeterians are not for the moral side of it and choose to not eat meat mainly for diet/health reasons so eating fish, an animal, is not a problem for them.

The vegans on the other hand who use no animal products whatsoever don't eat fish as well because it is an animal.

Another thing to prove that fish is not meat is that if you are a Catholic and you're not supposed to eat meat on Fridays during Lent you are allowed fish/seafood. If fish was a meat then the law would be against fish too.

Why isn't a delicious plate of roasted vegetables with a roasted brick of tofu its own reward?
"It simply strikes me as a bit hypocritical to both condemn the meat industry (and I acknowledge there are great many reasons to do so -- no question) and eschew eating our animal friends, but then seek out "Tofurkey" (if it isn't meant to mimic roasted fowl, it would be called Roast Tofu, but marketing has obviously proven the buyers DO want something which resembles roasted bird meat), or fakey hot dogs, or fake "chikken" and the like?"



This question was asked on the following website:

http://www.slashfood.com/2006/11/21/tackling-the-tofurkey/

It's been asked before but IMO never quite as succinctly.

Intelligent answers only . .. would prefer those who are self-secure and genuine in whatever lifestyle they embrace and who can articulate a thoughtful reply.

Moral frauds, rigid thinkers, and verbal abusers, please go elsewhere.

What do you think?

Sure you can voice your opinion about meat eaters but when you start telling people there cold-blooded murderers for it then thats when its a bit OTT.

What do you all think?

FYI, I'm not trying to insult anyone I'm just asking a question that needs to be answered =]
