Answers:
VEGAN!!!!!!! HERE and here is one reason why
Meat contains too much fat, too much protein and no fiber. Meat is the greatest source of fat in the American diet. Excessive quantities of fat consumed are linked to heart disease, cancer, obesity and diabetes. Too much protein can contribute to calcium leaching out of the bones. Lack of fiber can cause constipation, hemorrhoids, diverticulitis and colon cancer.

Too much protein is unhealthy, because our body does not store protein. The protein that our body does not need is broken down and excreted. However, for every molecule of ammonia or amino acid cleansed from the blood, the kidneys lose an atom of calcium through the urine. This is called "protein-induced hypercalcuria". The calcium that leaves the blood is taken out of the body's vital storehouse of calcium, the bones. This calcium loss over the years can cause osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is usually not caused by calcium deficiency, but by protein excess. Osteoporosis is most severe in the people who consume the most protein.

Favorite veg... Eggplant and snap peas

My children were getting sick often and had Allergies, so doctor would say no diary as it produces mucus. So I cut out all dairy all allergies and colds went away, i gave it back allergies came back. I did some research came across a book called "Dont Drink The Milk". That made me seek out more info 6 months ago we all became Vegan, kids have not been sick since and no allergies.
Also you feel healthier and if you do slip up as i have done you get sick. BTW I have 4 children so it's not like I have one and can claim my little study if only one got sick after letting them have dairy again I would have thought s/he was just different, but it was 100%.

hell no

I didn't fight my way to the top of the food chain to become a vegetarian

no i'm not a vegetarian and here are my answers
yes
pizza

all in order. happy?

Yes I am

I have been an animal lover since I was young, watched one of the inside of a slaughter house video, and automatically gave up eating meat.

I love being vegetarian, it gives me a self satisfaction that I am not contributing to animal abuse and lessening my activity of global warming.

My favorite vegetable is brocolli, but cauliflower is a close runner up

I am one and have been for 10 years +

I became one because I think all live is precious.

Yes I like being a vegetarian, but I do still drink milk and eat cheese

My favorite vegetable is a tie between carrots and broccoli

I love vegetables and I don't mind eating all vegetables for a meal. But I also like eating animal with vegetables.
Lamb with Garlic, feta and a big salad, with wine.
I don't think a vegetarian diet is healthy, so no it will never happen.

Yes, I am a vegetarian. I actually am because of my religon which is Hinduism. If I wasn't hindu, would still be vegetarian. Yeah, pretty much, except when people say that vegetarians are frail and meat-eaters are stronger.

Favortie vegetable=Cucumber

I cam from the "Dude whats that tattoo" question. Can I get the 10 points you promised? Cool. I'll answer your question now.

Not a vegetarian. Like vegetables. Favorite food is beef but I like salad, corn, brocolli, okra, onions, mushrooms etc
Not really. I like meat too much.

Im not a vedetarian but i hate the fact that i eat animals and im a huge animal LOVER.I do like to eat vegtables, suprisingly, like esparigus,carrots,brockly,all except calla flower, spinach,andcabbage.

You have got to be kidding. You eat what animals eat. I eat them. Nothing better than a thick juicy prime rib steak, rare.

1.yes I am.
2.I am an animal lover and don't beleive in eating them.The way they are killed is often cruel and I can't bare it.
3.I love being vegetarian! I feel contempt about not harming God's beautiful creatures.
4.I love carrots and potatoes.

No, I'm sure am not. I like my meat. :)

i would be a vegitarian if i could but i need to eat meat becuase i get to hungry otherwise. my body is not slow and i need to eat a balanced diet including meat. i eat alot of tofu and seads as well. i think its a healthy way of living and people should try to be vegitarians.

No, I'm not
Yes I like vegetables
I don't have a favorite, if it's edible, chances are I'll it eat
No, I don't

Yes! I have been a vegetarian since I was eighteen. I am now 28, ten years already. It was one of those decisions that you just come back to them, in your mind, and say to yourself, "You are wise." I decided to let go of pork, initially, because I was overweight. I noticed how good my body was responding, so I started researching the effects of meat. I then stopped eating meat, then cheese and eggs, and then stopped eating all animal sources completely. I really enjoy being vegetarian. Trust me, you don't get "weak." I had never ran over a mile. I now run 6-8 miles daily, six days a week. I feel good. My favorite vegetarian meals are rotini pasta, mixed with fried tomatoes/green peppers/onions, oatmeal with peanut butter, and last, but of course not least: banana/peanut butter/ and soymilk shakes(the best).

im not a veggie, but i love veggies, my favorite vegetable is broccoli.

I am an animal lover and love to eat animals including those that are vegetarians. I am an omnivore, and l love vegetables too. I have to admit that I am a bit squeamish about the screams of vegetables being pulled from the earth..

hell no, i dont wanna be a vegetarian. i need meat, i love me some chili, hot dogs, burgers, chicken, steak, ribs....it aint healthy to just eat vegies n' fruit, i like to eat em soaked in with the meat....i'd have to say bbq is my fav food, mainly watever the black ppl cook, their fried chicken, meatloaf and all that is good as hell!!! ohhh! now i wann go get me some of that babtist food!!

i am NOT :D .... animals were put on the Earth to be EATEN haha

yes i like veggies...especially peppers and cucumbers

my favorite food [group] would have to be Italian because that's what I eat the most...my favorite food... is Chicago Deep Dish Pizza

I think that being a vegetarian for a month would be cool...a nice way to cleanse your body from meat toxins

I'm not a vegetarian, i like to eat fruits more than i like to eat vegetables. My favorite food is chicken potstickers, and that would be a hell no i could never give up meat. Did u know that we never would have evolved into modern humans if our ancestors never ate meat? We would have still been chimpanzees, swingin in the trees. I learned that in anthropology class.=)

i"m not a vegetarian
*I do LOVE TO eat my veggies
*umm...I don't know what my favorite food is ( something that taste good but is healthy for me ) oh I LOVE LOVE LOVE jelly belly jelly beans even though their not good for me LOL
*I'm thinking I won't ever be a vegetarian because I like to eat beef sometimes, chicken more, and almost ANYTHING seafood

Yes, I am
i just didn't like the taste of meat
Yes, It's fun
I like fruits.

Ive tried so hard to become a vegitarian, but i dont like vegtables, so while i didnt eat meat, all i ate was junk food, so i just decided to eat meat, but not as much, and i gave up wearing leather clothes.

I would like to be a Vegitarian one day, im just not sure i could....meat is just so good!

My favorite vegtable is celery, it doesnt taste like anything, but did you know you burn more calories chewing the celery than the celery gives you its self....pretty cool

No, not a vegetarian.
Not too fond of vegetables.
I love desserts, so probably cake.
I'd consider it. It seems like a very healthy lifestyle.

No way there will be nothing greater than meat.

I am not a vegetarian because i like veggies but i have big issues on the texture of them

*NO
*i hate veggies-i wish there was a way there was healthy junk food
*JUNK FOOD of course!
*NO WAY IN H*LL!!!!! u have got 2 be freaking kidding! i respect any1 who choses that lifstyle but...... i could not LIVE without meat!!

Am not vegetarian, eat most things

Evolution is survival of the fittest, we are surviving by eating what we need to.

Ok so a rack of barbequed ribs, or some nice steaks are not normal things in nature, but we are still animals and part of nature.

Also where can you draw the line with killing things, if we did not kill animals to eat, we would only be killing plants instead. Which if people think that killing animals is murder plants is too.

Forethere, thus or I conclude

We eat to live tis nature, and if I am dead the morrow tis not gonna matter to me whether I had Lamb or lentils

1. The pain that we put other living creatures through.
2. Finding it hard at the moment after 15 years.
3. Potato

To the person above regarding plants being the same as animals - When was the last time you seen a plant give you its paw, smile at you, show any emotion at all to you?

An animal has a memory and emotions. To have a brain is to have all the capabilities of ourselves. To take the life of something with a brain is to take the life of something thats related to us.

I'm not a vegetarian, but I do avoid meat because I don't believe it's ethical or healthy how much of the meat in our food sources is raised and processed.
I like eating meals without meat because there is more variety and I'm finding I feel more nourished if I eat less meat.
My favorite vegetable is the potato - white or sweet. They are just so versatile.
My favorite food changes over time - right now, I love pizzas from Proto's Pizza :)
And I think I might become a vegetarian one day because I keep finding more reasons not to eat meat. But for now, I still don't know how to balance my diet without meat so it's a work in progress.
