Why do people become non-vegetarians ? Because they enjoy eating it .
Same way, people become vegetarians/vegans because they are not able to develop taste buds for it . Apart from that , some religion condemn killing of animals .
Simple as that . No third reason .

A lot of people become vegetarians out of compassion for animals and having strong feelings on animal rights. I personally stopped eating meat after reading a book on slaughterhouses. It grossed me out. I still eat seafood because the book didn't mention anything about it so there was nothing to gross me out and turn me away from it.

2 they think that they are saving animals
3 they see those pictures of some farms that have their animals in tiny cages
4 their bored and want to do something to change their lives
(5 for the vegans, they want to do one up on the vegetarians)

Because eating meat is another name for eating "flavored" dead corpses...
Because without all the flavours, cooking and spices that people add to the decomposing corpses of animals... these would unbearable to eat. "Meat seasoning" is a big lie to cover up death and justify eating it.
Because there is no need to eat meat, there are plenty of other foods available without having to kill other creatures... no one will starve if they don't have an steak or a chicken for lunch.
Because there is so much cowardy around meat eating that people don't even see the killing, just the pretty packaging... slaughterhouses are filled with shady misery, suffering and murder.
Because people who eat violence generate violence for themselves and for others. How can I trust in a humankind that eats its weakest creatures and kills them hidden and coward from the view of others. Why don't they show all that on TV instead of the "pretty happy "commercials huh? all the suffering, cluttering, disease and death of animals. It's shocking... like a big collective lie nightmare people have gotten used to buying and living (or should I say dying) amongst.
Because we don't want all the chemicals, antibiotics, experimenting and genetic alteration they give the animals so they can profit more and more and which ultimately enter our bodies and infects our minds.
Because we don't want arthery clogging and fat gaining derived from meat eating.
Because we don't want bad breath and rotten dead food inside us.

Because you are to tread lightly on the earth, but by all means sometimes have that juicy steak at the five star restaurant. Mind you only do that every couple of years. In general, farm beef/chicken take up a lot of resources and land space to produce which is not a good thing.

Its a wise decision to turn into a vegetarian. As it is-there r so many foods which r veg. but can give u a taste of non-veg. stuff. Why feel guilty of murder when there r options available?Vegetarianism is precisely the option.

Apart from the cruelty of the way they are killed (some organic places aren't so bad), I developed a real fondness for animals and see all animals the same way people see their pets so I don't wan't to eat them :o)

Some people do it because of their affection for animals. Some people do it for health. Some people have trouble digesting meat. Some people just don't like meat.

Because they have decided to stop eating meat whether because of health reasons or just personal choices.
