[rquote=2616781&tid=148326&author=Princess]Fom,Quorn do like EVERYTHING,steaks and all. But I've been told the only things that taste like meat are the mince and the chicken burgers. I don't remember what meat tastes like. As I said before I don't mind people eating meat as long as they don't think I should. It's a nice idea that everyone could be veggie but it's never gonna happen so no point trying to convince everyone to do it :P [/rquote]

Haha, I have had quorn mince before... it was alright. You could tell that it was getting there, but me being a weirdo could just tell, there was that slight thing missing. But if you have forgot what meat tastes like then I can understand how much you think it tastes like meat because its close. I am exactly the same as you, I have nothing against vegetarians as long as people don't throw it on me
I even want to try out being a vegetarian just as an experience, I could never do it because I love meat. But I still want to try it for a bit!

Woo for us being sensible You should,just for a go. A lot of people are silly though and go cold turkey(lol),I gave up a different meat every few weeks to phase it out,so it took me a good few months to become a veggie which was kinda easier for me.

This thread was created to pose the question of eating meat. You are posing a different question. You are saying we are wild. This is wrong. We are not. There is no opinion in fact. I have already proved to you how we are not wild. In fact, I cant believe I have to. I am thinking you just have nothing else to argue hence why you made that post, to try and salvage something.[/rquote]

I said that we are wild and we can eat meat.

Yes. I know. And then I gave you all the arguments and evidence to suggest we are not wild. Which we are not. Now your just going in circles. You don't have an argument. We are not wild. The proof is both in front of you and under your fingers, as well as everything I have stated.

[rquote=2616578&tid=148326&author=30stone]Why now should we not eat meat?


Either way i can't do it, I drop weight extremely quickly as it is without meat id look terrible wouldnt be able to gain too much size or muscle.

Tuna
Chicken
Mince

Are very important.

Ohhh and even my cat can tell the difference between Quorn and meat.

Quorn has less protein [/rquote]
Some of us care more about other animals dying than how big our muscles are, I am guessing?

No. What you are describing is called freedom. Being wild is functioning entirely self sufficient on a system of instincts.

Did you catch your dinner today? No. Society provided it for your. Your argument is incredibly weak. It's blatantly obvious. We are not wild.

Meat is not murder! Meat is delicious!

I love animals... but they taste so good.

Seriously though, I've seen what goes on in these battery farms and it's sickening. That's why I only ever try to eat free-range.

I think you'll find it's the lionesses who do the hunting while the males lay around on the Serengeti scratching themselves. Sounds about right...

Humans are onmivores. We're built to eat meat, but we don't have to support cruelty. I eat meat but make sure it's locally produced, sympathetically reared and humanely slaughtered. I never eat cheap, 'factory farmed' products and I don't eat eggs produced in batteries. It costs slightly more, I think eating meat from an animal that has been treated well tastes different. We have freedom of choice and we can choose not to support an industry that promotes suffering.

I don't know how we can see this as a serious subject when every day we're drowning in the filth and depravity that people do to people. Stop the bombings, the rape, the murder, the genocide, and all the other **** that we've become so accustomed to that doesn't even make us flinch anymore when we hear about it, then start helping Percy Pig.
