Vegetarianism!!

There was quite a bit of stuff discussed on Jimbo's carb post (VSG forum) the other day and I just found this article on vegetarianism that I thought some of you might find interesting!

Clearly if no-one finds it interesting we can all get on with our day! 

P.S Am not, have never been and never will be a vegetarian - just love meat too much!

Thanks for the link.  I have nothing against vegetarians......It can be a very good/healthy  lifestyle .  I also feel just being "vegetarian" or  "vegan"  does NOT  automatically equate to "healthy"  Like the one person posted she does not believe people get "fat"  on  a "vegetarian" diet!  Really?   I'm glad Brandilynn and Lee chimed in.......as I was never  The "V" word!  (I am now!  VSGer!)  Several years ago.....my niece who WAS a total "meatatarian" went "veggie" on us ( her BF/ fiancee was)  I told her "you will come back to the 'dark side' some day!".....like a year later...she did!  We celebrated W/ BBQ ribs!
(I hope this next part doesn't "offend" anyone  so I'll apologize in  advanced for what follows!)  
    I am an Omnivore.....leaning towards carnivore!  I consider myself.....an "equal opportunity" eater!  If the food/meat gives me an opportunity....I'll eat it!  I know there are many reasons people choose not to eat meat( I won't get into that debate.......too much like religion....and politics!)  SOOO,   ....I track ALL my food (mostly animal flesh and byproducts!)  in a PETA  notebook! ( people for the ethical treatment of animals)  I have nothing against PETA!  It is just my twisted sense of humor/irony!   My friends and family know this.....and "get" me......and they are my "target" audience!  It gets worse!  I also get "smiley" faces on the days I eat an animal from "land,  sea, and  air!"(like steak, fish, and  chicken "they fly!")   OK......so now you ALL know how sick and twisted I am!  Again for any "V" people out there I'm sorry!  I need help.....I know!
 

 .. but they really don't fly well.. which makes them just that much easier to catch & eat!!

Ok, off to bed with me..

Tee Hee Jimbo I love that you food journal in a PETA notebook. Such a hoot.  Where I live I might get bludgeoned for doing such a thing as there are some pretty rabid PETA people around. I do love and respect animals of all kinds and worship our dogs who rule our lives. But still chuckle at your PETA notebook. My food journal is called "Fat B Gone" and is in volume 4.

No animals were harmed in the writing or posting of this message.

I LOOVE animals too.........BBQed.....deep fried.......sauteed etc!  Hey.......I feel there's  room on earth for ALL of "God's"  creatures..........on my plate......next to the mashed potatoes and gravy!  OK that might have gone too far!

PETA - People for Eating Tasty Animals

I have a hat that says...."I support PETA".........people eating tasty animals!"  I used to wear it to BBQ competitions!

I will be adding this to my ever expanding reading list.. thank you!

BTW .......Fleurs.......how are you doing there in N.Z.?  The latest "natural disaster" in Japan  reminded me of your recent "event".  I hope all is well W/ you.....and yours.....and my condolences for the loved ones you lost.
