I would like to know the population of vegetarians in the United States because I think the Food Network really needs a vegetarian cooking show because as a vegetarian and a huge fan of Food Network I think it would be brilliant.

It's estimated that 1% of the US population is vegan and 2.5% are vegetarian. This number has increased as the population has increased.
By this (I think) reasonable and even low estimate, with the current population of the US at 300 million, that would mean 7 and 1/2 million vegetarians and around 3 million vegans.
Cool! That is a significant minority. Plenty to warrant a veggie cooking show on Food Network.
Oh, and let me recommend a veggie cooking show that already exists: The Post Punk Kitchen (www.theppk.com)
They have great cookbooks and an awesome website with forums and everything!

A 2003 survey estimated that 4-10% of people considered themselves vegetarian. Different polls had different results falling into that percentage range with one poll finding that only 2.8% of people surveyed said they never ate 'meat'.

I've researched and there would be about 5.8 million of them.
