[LSK]

:shrug:

1. Nah.

Avoid it if you want, but there is no reason to be a martyr about it and swear it off for all time.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

20. Why would swearing it off forever make him a martyr?

Unless a rabid hunter killed him for being a vegan.

24. Nero will probably feed him to lions.

Just a figure of speech, dude.

[genie_weenie]

2. Yes!

More Steak for me!

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

3. Sure, and quit smoking while you're at it!

[LSK]

7. id have to start 1st

4. You could

but make sure you eat a balanced vegan diet. It's easy to be all french fries and Boca Burgers, but that won't cut it (any more than fries and regular burgers will).

Your body will reap the many rewards, as will the environment, the animals, etc.

Look, I had to post this. It's in my contract.

5. That would be a good thing to do.

And you've got friends here to back you up with good information and moral support.

If you decide not, or not yet, we'll still be here for you. :)

8. thanks

[Redstone]

6. If you want to. Or don't, if you don't want to.

(How's THAT for great advice? That's me, always helpful.)

R. U. Ok?

:hi:

[LSK]

12. nah, i always type like that

[Xipe Totec]

13. Hew! That's a relief!

I tend to lose my ability to think clearly when I limit my food intake to veggies.

carry on, then :thumbsup:

[LeftyMom]

10. All the cool kids are doing it.

:evilgrin:

[LaurenG]

11. As the saying goes, just do it!

I'd do it if I hadn't already done it... I'm vegan, that is.

[dysfunctional press]

14. yes!

more meat for me!

[Bassic]

22. And me.

Hey, keep your hands of my steak. :D :hi:

[Deja Q]

15. I haven't had meat in a long time. Maybe I'll join you.

:shrug:

[LSK]

16. made it through the day again meatless

Lets see how long this will last. :popcorn:

[mykpart]

17. Just make sure you eat plenty of calcium-rich and iron-rich foods.

[XemaSab]

18. Totally.

[Nicole]

19. I'm not vegan

but I often go for days without meat this time of year. So many fresh veggies out in the garden right now that I'm living off of them for the most part. The last meat I ate was at a Memorial Day cookout.

If you really want to go vegan I'm sure this is a good time of the year to be doing it.

[Bassic]

21. Nah,

Meat is good. :D

[Orsino]

23. Your inquiry may be casual...

...but if you're serious, then what do you think would be the benefits of going veggie or vegan?

Me, I think we evolved to eat meat when we can, and so I don't condemn it out of hand. I assume that we need some meat, but modern diets can provide all or nearly all of the required nutrients without any need for butchering animals.

I just finished my first serving of meat in a week--three strips of bacon. A week ago, I had a helping of beef. I would probably miss meat if I never ate it again, but I think a good moral choice can be to minimize our carnivorous choices.

Going vegan is a different issue. Do you feel strongly that domestic animals shouldn't be kept for their milk? How about wool?

25. id be doing it for health reasons
