Ish... Not really. I scarcely eat meat like less than once a month. This is in part because of limitations on vegetarian meal options, Most vegetarian meals in restraunts are exactly the same as meat ones except meat is substituted for mushrooms.
Hate mushrooms... v_v how can you eat something so ambiguous in it's own physiology, Like a plant insect fusion dammit they are full of animal type proteins.
Mainly I am simply because I want to appreciate it when I do eat meat not for any specific moral or political reason instead of just eating it cuz it's there it makes me smell bad honestly.
And no you don't have to eat meat to have a balanced diet Americans and Europeans and there oh so precious scarcer and scarcer vanishing proteins are a myth. unless you intentionally sabotage your diet you won't be deficient EVER on protein
Where do you think animals got there "proteins" from eh? Iron loss is actually abit of an issue but can be accounted for.
I do personally enjoy heckling my friends who are real political/moral vegetarians with awkward questions because "Morally speaking" Typically is a synonym for "Speaking out of my a** for a second"
1: How can you justify not eating the animal kingdom yet you have no problem eating kingdom FUNGI!! o_o It's half animal and half plant... surely too risky... They have Chitin just like insects! And digestive enzymes just like insects. And there excretions are all mixed up... Organic acid... similar to an animals but a plant like twist.
If your fine with fungi... What about the ones that move and crawl about the floor... Oh they do exist.
2: Do you have qualms about eating invertebrates? Would you eat a Queen termite say? What about a prawn? What about a small spider that's in the bit of salad you just ate?
3: Ok fine. But I must ask you... Do you have a problem eating a carnivorous plant that eats animals?
These are all questions I extend to vegetarians on this forum now.
