[…] “It’s not even all about the meat juices. I don’t want to support or be associated with an industry I don’t agree with. If you’re vegetarian because you just don’t like the taste of meat then, well, meat is just your red pepper so pick away! But to the colleague that has been known to buy carbonara pasta packets and just pick the ham out, yet claimed to be vegetarian because she was ‘against the meat industry’, I say this – the meat industry doesn’t care whether the meat enters your mouth or not, they simply care that it enters your shopping bag. And whether you eat him or not, Babe has still died so that you can have lunch!” – More Than Greens […]

Thanks for reading!

Aww, that’s such a cute way of putting it! I actually wrote a post called “No, I Do NOT Eat Fish” a little while ago and had a rant about that too. 😉 I occasionally get chicken as well but it’s amazing how many people assume I eat fish because “it’s not really an animal”. I think they skipped a biology lesson or two…

Thanx for a great blog!!!! For some reason, do you know that some people still ask me when I tell them I am vegetarian: “But do you eat fish and chicken?”. My little girl, who is nine years old and has been a vegetarian all her life said to her granny once: “Gran, if it has a face and a mother – we don’t eat it.”. No more doubts after that. Bless my sweet child!!!!!!

Oh, dear! I guess sometimes people are just so used to things, it’s hard to see why someone may want an alternative.

That’s so good you got nice vegan meals in hospital! I guess I was just unlucky.

Along the same lines of “it’s just a little bit”… when I worked in a hotel and we had staff dinners provided, it was always a meat dish, overcooked veggies and rice. It was bad enough that my ‘main’ was mushy broccoli and carrots but they ALWAYS cooked the rice in chicken stock. I asked if perhaps they could cook it in veggie stock, or just have some plain and the response was, “Oh, come on… there’s barely any chicken in chicken stock!” Sigh…
