Well, my mother has been vegetarian for around 20 years, and she seems just fine from it. I was vegetarian growing up, until I was maybe 15 or 16, and I still grew up big and strong.

Meat is extremely useful for certain things, but it is far from the exclusive source of anything. A sensible vegetarian diet can provide everything necessary to be healthy.

I was a vegetarian for nearly a year when I was 16, I believe. I feel like it could have been a good thing, if I wasn't such a picky eater and so used to eating chicken with everything. As a result, I couldn't eat many things beyond pasta and rice, and as a result gained quite a bit of weight. I wasn't an educated vegetarian, so it wasn't good for me. But oh well, it was a good experience. I think being vegetarian can be VERY healthy if it's done sensibly.

I don't eat very much animal meat now anyway, honestly. Chicken is the only thing I have very often, since my family is hooked on chicken. That aside, I rarely have things like burgers, spare ribs, etc.

You, me and a boxing ring says carnivorism comes out top.

There's a difference between eating a plant and the inhumane treatment of animals before they are brought to your plate.

I think this is what non-vegetarians say when they are in denial. I've grown up with vegetarians and I've been one for most of my life. And totally since 1993. My doctor can tell you that I am not suffering or lacking anything. All vegetarians that I knew/know were/are strong, healthy people.

Given that I've been eating meat happily for about five years now, I'd hardly say this would teach us anything.

Except that I can kick your ass

Most of my cousins are vegetarian, but I need meat.
