Answer 2

I can't make you change your mind into eating vegetable. I can only provide you with more information, and then you'll have to make up your own mind. I became vegan at 17 and I'm still vegan 20 years later. The animals you eat were kept in battery hens, in the case of chickens, feedlots in the case of cows, and cages stacked three high in the case of pork. They've had more anti-biotics in their incredibly short lives than you will ever have in yours. These make their way into your body. Animal agriculture is where the majority of anti-biotic resistant diseases are developing.

A vegetarian's risk of developing breast, colon, and stomach cancer are significantly lower than the norm. Oh, and don't forget prostate cancer, which currently affects 60% of men.

Then there is the everyday advantages. I know several asthmatic people who have been able to stop using nearly all their medicines because when they gave up milk they didn't have any breathing problems. The new study that says that diabetics who maintain a vegan diet have lower and more stable bloodsugars than people who use the american diabetic association diet. You have a lower risk of gallstones, you are more likely to maintain a healthy weight, the list goes on and on.

You have to decide that you want all the benefits to go through what many vegetarians go through, not being able to find food everywhere. Having to worry about eating at friends' houses, etc. However, I've cultivated a network of vegetarians, I know all the best places to eat and I am a good cook. I eat a wider variety of foods than I ever though possible. I didn't grow up eating thai, chinese, vietnamese, ethiopian, british, and Indian. I have more options and more variety of foods than any of my meat eating friends. They think my diet is restrictive, but it's they who end up eating the same 6 or so meals while my repetoire has probably 40 in heavy rotation. Being a vegetarian opens you up to new experiences, both culinarily and culturally, than you ever though possible. Being a meat-eater does none of that. Meat eaters aren't encouraged to be adventurous because then they end up eating monkey brain or dog, so civet cat or something weird like that. I'm happy with my choice. It's your choice too.

Answer 3

As you age your taste will mature. Honestly, things will take on subtle nuiances that you never tasted before. Also the more vegetables you eat and the less meat, dairy and processed foods you consume will also change the flavor of certain foods. I defer to some of the others as to why you should definetly go toward veganism, but wanted you to know that the more vegetables you eat the less foreign tasting they become. And fortunately they are multiple varieties out there to choose from. But make sure you get quality organic produce from your local co-op or Whole Foods. Trust me, the extra price is well worth it!

Answer 4

Go to an Indian restaurant and eat them in a curry. The flavor overwhelms any individuality of the veggie and all you need to overcome it the texture. Also, I find many veggies improve with toasted peanuts, unsweetended coconut and salt on them.

Answer 5

Well, let me tell ya. I am 38 and still am not too crazy about those veggies. However over time young fella, your taste buds could change quite a bit or you will realize that you need to eat something healthy and want to live a longer life.

Answer 6

Try different things. Keep in mind that veggies that you think you don't like or ones you hated as child (mine was spinach) might be ok to you know. Check out of few recipe sites and see what interests you.

Answer 7

If I can go ahead in time and show you how you will look and what dieases you ended up with just because you did not eat your veggies.

Answer 8

Its called seasoning and condiments.
When you cook them, use a lot of flavoring and seasonings.
Or use condiments such as sour cream, hot sauce, mustard, etc.
But hey, if you don't like them now, you'll like them eventually.
I still don't like plenty of veggies.
It's just because I think they're nasty.

Answer 9

Gianne, sorry, but if u have first blood group that would be difficult to totally switch to vegies and abandon meat consuming.

...cuz 1st blood group are Meat-Eaters.
I guess only 2nd group are meat-indifferent.
2nd blood group are Vegie-People,
.....so them may feel only occasional urge for meat.

Answer 10

Try different veggies until you find something that you like. Cole slaw is a veggie. I like Vegetable Tempura (Japanese). It's veggies batter dipped and deep fried. Experiment until you find something that you like and then "go for it".

Answer 11

Try different toppings like barbecue sauce, ketchup, A-1. I did, its surprisingly tasty. I know its weird, sorry. Worth a shot though, right? :)
