[Forensick]

sorry, clearly i am wrong....
a dietry specialist knows less about the diet than a GP, or surgeon... i should get a dentist to give me chiropractic advice!

and i didn't say meat was wrong.
i said a vegetarian diet is healthier....
and aside from your made up figures and being related to random doctors, you don't seem to have any evidence other than the fact that we are CAPABLE of it

Wheres the balance in a vegetarian diet? Sam Neill can't be wrong, he told me to eat meat at least 3 times a week and I will live longer and be healthier! And he wouldn't lie! Apparently we ate meat when we lived in caves too...

But I don't care about this meat and vego bolls... I care that I have a healthy, balanced and nutritious diet made from fresh meats, vegetables, fruits and preservatives... And MSG... and other wonderous tasting things that add to balance... Healthy is happy, and happy is enjoyment and I enjoy food and will continue eating it and loving it!

Bring on these shanks i'm having for dinner!

there you go, you'll find he didnt lie....
3x a week.... 100g MAX serves....
now a vegetarain comes closer to that than a meat eater!

they also got their time ling wrong in that.
believed increases in inteligence came both before AND after the commencement of eating meat... depending on who you listen too...
eitherway we didn't cook it till well into the neolithic

oh... cook em in guiness.... damn guiness shanks are good!

 

[slim6y]

You have vegetable friends too? I tried so hard to entertain a pumpkin one night - but it wouldn't have a bar of it... So I turned it into a squash...

Funny you dont even know what sort of doctors they are, but it wouldnt matter anyway, in a few years you will be a doctor so you know best I will leave it at that!! ohh and to suggest i am fat (if anything i should put on weight) because i eat meat on average 2-3 times a week, you will make a great dietry specialist!!!

"How many of the proud meat eaters here can honestly say they could hold a gun to a cows head and pull the trigger? How many could actually kill all the animals they eat? I say if your going to eat it you should be able to kill it. "

we do, have just put a cow, 3 sheep and a pig straight from our paddock, to the cool room then into our freezer. And these were all animals that my kids and I bottle reared. They grew out in our paddocks and even had names. The whole family is involved in the process of killing, gutting, skinning then cutting up the meat.

We will now sit down as a family and enjoy the fruits of our labour. Hmmm leg of lamb (formally known as Minty") with home grown veggies and home made gravy and mint sauce.

I grew up doing the same... Now I live in the big smoke but we still get some of our meet from family on the land and yes, I still shoot, bleed, skin and butcher the meat myself...

We (my family and I) are omnivors, we eat meat in moderation, probably red meat 2 nights a week and chicken 3 nights... No seafood for me due to allergy.

pfft vegitarians... we are omnivores! our closest relative the chimps go out and hunt down things like monkeys and eat them to eliminate a source of competition and get a feed. Wisdom teeth also back up the fact we are supposed to eat meat. their original use was to help chew raw meat.

what i wreckon all us proper meat eaters should do is all take up the pledge to eliminate vegitarianism. sponsor a veggie eater! for every animal they don't eat you eat 2. basically increase the amount of meat your currently consuming by 3 times! so if they start eating meat they will actually be saving animals!

come on guys we can do it

[waruikazi]

no we are omnivores

 

[Tatelina]

Tatelina, no i am sure of what i read, because it would be more likely vegetarians last 7 weeks as they get sick of eating plant matter!!
I am not going to argue that we humans are wasters!! that is true, but thats not why people become vegetarians, and if that is the reason and that is their protest, it will not change a thing!!!
Who says our diet is out of wack?? I am very healthy and I dont eat too many vegies!!!
cows are killed very humanely (Instant) but yes some do have poor living conditions, But so do some peoples pets, should people protest this by not having pets???

Hehe... we are all so different..which is why I won't dispute that you are very healthy. Have you ever detoxed to feel the difference of how you feel?

My sister was a full vegetarian for 14 years until she started eating fish 2years ago (so that's 16 years), my other sister has been a vegetarian for 17 years and refuses to change..although she cooks meat for her husband because he won't budge from his standpoint, I was a vegetarian for 5 years, and I have family friends who all don't eat meat and haven't done so since before their daughter was born.. so that's about 34 years.

It's actually been proven that animals (well cows atleast in the study that I read) can sense fear and death. When our beef cattle are herded into the abattior there is nothing stoping them from seeing the cows infront being stunned/killed/shot/whatever-it-is-that-does-it so even with that logic cows are not killed instantly without pain.
Just because my own decisions can't change the world doesn't mean I shouldn't make them and create my own opinions of what I do.

 

[Tatelina]

I eat red meat ........ and eat plently of veggies

and yet I still have to go and have B12 injections every 12weks or so.....

Ha! Sucked in! Your points have just been blown away!
You say:

Yes everyone has their own opinion kelly but in my opinion Humans DO need to eat meat...

The only reasons humans can go without meat is because of all the vitimins and supplements available.

and yet you still need to be supplemented?

Tisk tisk.
I've never had any supplements and was much healthier in the many years that I was a complete vegetarian...aswell as being 10kilos lighter.

P.s. This is not a nasty post...it's just....blunt.

 

[wicked reptiles]

I am not a vegetarian myself but my brother is, and he finds it quite offensive when people talk like that. Not everyone who is a vegetarian is one by choice, my brother for example cannot digest animal proteins and has quite violent reactions to eggs and some other dairy products. I myself though love meat, and would never turn vegetarian.

I hope your not a teacher..

I hope you're not one either.
