<p>lol, I love Hindoo's post!</p>
<p>For every animal you don't eat, I'm going to eat three.</p>
<p>Pass the panda-fried koala bear!</p>
<p>fine then... and that means you'll just die a LOT sooner... that's a lot of animals.</p>
<p>Yeah, true. Maybe I'll just kill them then.</p>
<p>Time for bed, kids.</p>

Meat's just great unless you think about it too much. Those bacon burgers are just yummy chunks of dead, fatty, decomposing flesh jammed between two nutrition-free pieces of white bread.

Sounds tasty!</p>
<p>did anyone see fast food nation? I wanted to, but it didn't come to any theaters anywhere in the area.</p>
<p>"Sounds tasty!"</p>
<p>As disgusting as it sounds, millions, maybe billions of people eat it.</p>

<p>Have you ever noticed how dogs and cats act when you have raw meat around them? They go nuts. They salivate and go wild for it. Give them a piece of raw meat and it is a major treat for them. They are obviously designed to eat meat because they have the sharp teeth for tearing into flesh, and they delight in devouring raw, bloody carcasses.</p>
<p>Do you feel the same way? Does the sight and smell of a bloody, freshly killed chicken excite you?</p>
<p>Humans must completely disguise dead animals to make them palatable - they must cook them and dress them up with lots of seasonings to hide the fact that they are in fact DEAD ANIMALS.</p>
<p>it's funny how the OP specified that discussion should be to a minimum....everyone did the exact opposite.</p>
<p>anyway, i'm for meat-eating. That's what meat is for. (not all meat of course).</p>
<p>^ haha yea. </p>
<p>I eat meat but i honestly can respect any view. I understand why people become vegetarians and I respect their views completely. I have thought about becoming a vegetarian many times, but it is really hard to when you don't cook your own food. I think that there are many veiws upon this. </p>
<p>it isn't a "your-wrong I'm-right" kinda thing. </p>
<p>so just get over it.</p>
<p>Here's a great site about meat-eating being 'natural' in the animal kingdom, along with other interesting 'natural' behaviors:</p>
<p><a href="http://michaelbluejay.com/veg/natural.html%5B/url%5D">http://michaelbluejay.com/veg/natural.html</a></p>
<p>add me to the veggie list. there is absolutely no need to kill animals, especially in the manner used. i think if one sat down and watched a PETA video or two, their attitudes might change. or actually saw differences in the body in terms of cholesterol, heart health, etc.</p>
<p>-meatless for almost 12 years, and will stay that way forever.</p>
<p>Meat is freaking delicious. Vegetarianism is great—it leaves more steak for me!</p>
<p>huskem: 12 years! That's awesome!</p>
<p>apple: Is it really the meat you think is delicious, or the way it is prepared? Would you say plain meat with nothing on it, no seasonings, is delicious? Actually I think meat is rather bland. You really have to spice it up to make it APPEAR edible.</p>
<p>I routinely make such dishes as lasagne, enchiladas, chili, burgers, and lots of other meals that are typically regarded as heavy on the meat, but I make them vegetarian, and they have the same seasonings used in their meat counterparts, so even meat-eaters often don't even miss the meat. Sometimes they can barely even tell the difference! </p>
<p>It is a myth to think that vegetarians live on salads and celery sticks. You don't have to feel deprived or give up your favorite dishes to be vegetarian. (Though it is a bit more challenging to give up cheese. The vegan cheeses don't always satisfy. But I am referring to being vegetarian, meaning don't eat anything that once had a face. Lots of people are vegetarian without being vegan.) Nowadays lots of restaurants have veggie options. If you have an E-Z's in your area, try their veggie burger - you will be pleasantly surprised!</p>
<p>Actually, I don't need to add a lot of spices or whatnot to make meat taste good. Perfectly grilled steak with a bit of salt, or nicely broiled chicken breast with a little salt and lemon juice = delicious. Veggie burgers are ok, but they certainly can't compare to luscious, juicy ground beef with some crispy bacon on top ... mmmm. Ok, this is making me hungry. I think I'll go have some leftover Christmas turkey with cranberry sauce.</p>

I like smell and sight of raw meat. Doctor, is there any chance? :o</p>
<p>By the way, last time I took biology class plants were part of life as well. Is it more fair to kill plants just because they are immovable?
Having said that, I have nothing against vegeterianism.</p>

I completely agree. Junk/fast food is not good -- in fact, I don't see how anyone can eat it: my stomach reacts very unfriendly to hamburgers and I can't eat french fries at all (too much fat). However, meat should not be associated with fastfood.

Where should I sign?</p>
<p>Personally, I don't think there is anything wrong with vegetarianism. However, I eat meat, and feel there is nothing wrong with it. As long as no one attempts to tell me that meat-eating is unnatural, I'll be fine.</p>
<p>And I agree with with Mr. Chipset, it isn't a right-wrong thing, even though some people try to make it that way.</p>
