<p>^Vegetarianism = pro.
@Milan, I’ve never had a vegan pizza. One day I should. O_o</p>
<p>Vegan pizza…meh. I like cheese and chocolate too much to go entirely vegan.</p>
<p>How do you guys feel about “picking the pepperonis” off a pepperoni pizza? Do you guys do it? If you don’t, what do you say to them in that situation?</p>
<p>^I prefer not to. I used to do it until I felt guilty about myself.</p>
<p>Of course, that’s my personal opinion.</p>
<p>^^You still have all of that gross pepperoni tasting grease though. Which is meat, in a way, if that’s what you’re worried about, but mostly is just grody.</p>
<p>^^^ I don’t do that because there will still be that meat smell. I’d just get something else to eat.</p>
<p>Chocolate pizza tastes SO FREAKEN GOOD. you cannot even IMAGINE how good it tastes, and how well the melting of the chocolate goes with the chewy-ness of the bread.</p>
<p>I’m only vegetarian because my parents are pescetarian (sp?) and I grew up not even seeing meat as food. It just looks so icky… Then I realized that fish is just as icky so I stopped eating that too. I really don’t like that when I mention I’m vegetarian (which only happens when someone offers me meat) and I feel like I have to explain that I have no moral qualms with killing and eating animals. Lol :)</p>

<p>Damn, I missed this. I love being right, so I had to quote. 
Well, I’m an Indian, but I’m a vegetarian for non-Indian reasons.</p>
<p>I recently (reeeally recently) decided to become a lacto-ovo-pesco-tarian diet. It will last at least for Lent, and I will then decide whether I plan to continue eating as a semi-vegetarian or simply adopt a typical omnivore diet once more.</p>
<p>For the record, I don’t think eating meat is inherently wrong. However, animals in slaughterhouses aren’t exactly killed humanely. Wouldn’t people be prosecuted for inflicting those same acts on a dog or a cat? It’s so skewed. If animals were simply gassed or even injected so that I could be reassured that they felt no pain, I would have no trouble eating meat.</p>
<p>I wish I had the will power to become a vegitarian…</p>
<p>I don’t even have the will power to give up ranch dressing…</p>
<p>Why would you give up ranch dressing? o.O</p>
<p>lent, one had to give up something that was important to them. a food item. technology. for 40 days</p>
<p>^ ooh, I gave up facebook!</p>
<p>But my little sister gave up meat. She’s been wanting to go vegetarian for a while, and then she did a research project on the inhumane treatment of animals in slaughterhouses and that pretty much pushed her to do it. She’s never been a huge meat-eater though.</p>
<p>I love meat so much I don’t think I could ever give it up, but I understand why she’s doing it.</p>
<p>^Isn’t it pretty weak to give up meat for Lent when one doesn’t like it in the first place? In the Christian view, Lent is a time of sacrifice, so that our suffering might remind us of Jesus’ 40 days in the desert, and to remind us that we are not self-sufficient and depend on God for the happiness those indulgences give us.</p>
<p>I’m a vegetarian for purely ethical reasons, but I wonder what adcoms think of the belief. It shows a lot of willpower and drive, IMO.</p>
<p>“willpower and drive”
Lol, how?</p>
<p>I used to eat meat all the time… then one night in October 2008 I realized how disgusting it is and arbitrarily decided to stop.</p>
<p>I think it’s funny that people want to put this on applications. People will put anything on applications.</p>
<p>“I’m a vegetarian, oh and I’m double jointed, oh and I’m on a lot of medicines for many imaginary disorders.”</p>

<p>this pretty much says it all</p>
<p>^ Was that really necessary?</p>
<p>Btw, humans aren’t carnivores. :rolleyes: (General statement to people who say they are).</p>
