Vegetarian's out there?

quote:

I am a vegetarian and I wanted to know if there are any others of you out there? It's hard to hold a good pairing conversation with someone when they talk about steaks and cab's, when i haven't eaten any animal products for almost 2 years.

I am, but I suck at pairing food to wine. I eat what I want and drink what I want and it doesnt ever seem to bother me. That said, if I am eating something spicy its Gwertz or Reiesling time.

Life without meat isn't worth living.

I'd suggest a closed garage, a garden hose and a 1972 Buick.

I was a vegetarian for 14 years and recently started eating meat. Despite this, my diet is still primarily vegetarian.

You mentioned in another post that you were interested in a career in wine. I think it is important for you to understand meat/wine pairings as well, despite your personal food preferences.

being vegetarian ='s being too stupid to realize there is a food related section to post food related questions in?

btw, welcome!

Nope not wrong for the first time.

You should thank us carnivores for evolution. If it wasn't for us, we'd be just like you, slow, fat, lumbering and only smart enough to sneak up on a carrot.

Yes, I'm a quazi veg., and I agree the Dining and Cooking forum might be better for a reposting of this.

Let's just hope Gigondass doesn't snap to, and figure out how to work the garage door opener so he can drive his Buick over there.

I am very grateful. Thanks to all early humans for eating all the fish protien and Omega-3s so our species developed a cerebreal cortex and thus have the forsight to plant Pinot Noir in the Russian River Valley.

I've never seen a healthy looking vegetarian.....

You people are fooling yourselves. Not to mention missing out on one of life's little miracles, gravy.

Your welcome by the way. Thanks for contributing to the downfall of mankind by creating less intelligent humans that think eating only plants it normal or even smart.

BTW its FORESIGHT. See, you're getting dumber already........

That's pretty funny! Bernard Hopkins thinks that's pretty funny too.

Most vegetarians eat too many french fries and other crap.

I was never the type of vegetarian who was offended by meat. Instead, I looked askance on meat eaters who ordered their steaks well-done.

Yes, I think eating plants it normal too, and even smart.

Actually my girlfriend is a certified nutritionist from RIT and anyone who knows anything about nutrition will tell you that a vegetarian diet is much more healthier than a carnivorous one. You cut through all of the cholesterol and saturated fats of meat.

C'mon now, get with the program. A serious take? Puleaze! This is Carnivore vs. Livelongavore 101.

MUCH HEALTHIER......

Only a moron would say MUCH MORE HEALTHIER it's a redundancy......

How smart can your girlfriend be, she's dating a vegetarian.......

See, you guys are all a bunch of dopes....

I can't argue with that......

Natalie Portman, Alyssa Milano and Alicia Siverstone are vegetarians. They are healthy enough for my tastes.

I lived in Italy for six months. It taught me that you don't have to eat meat twice a day. Italian people (especially the women) are among the healthiest looking I've ever seen. I read somewhere that they are the thinnest in the civilized world.

Hmm good debate. I've seen that you have mastered the art of circular reasoning. Really, great job supporting your side. Calling a college graduate and me a dope is a really relevant argument to our debate here. Where did you get your "meat is healthier information?"

Pass the popcorn.

Oh and GA - when you've finished nailing this guy on his spelling don't forget to have a go at his punctuation. Vegetarian's indeed.

I'm a vegetarian by proxy. I eat things that eat vegetables.

That was an incorrect use of the possesive...FYI

Wow, glad to see it's the usual cacophony from the resident group of lefties.......

Alyssa Milano et al may be hot, it doesn't mean they're healthy.

BYW veg boy, a college degree doesn't necessarily equate to intelligence. Plenty of stupid college graduates in the world...

Meat is goood. Me like meat..... Killing for fooood is gooood.....

Tofu farting vegetarians smell funny......

Humans are omnivores. Take a look at your teeth, or tooth as it may be.

possessive. I prefer the term "Grocer's Apostrophe". Pick up a copy of "Eats, Shoots and Leaves".

Thanks for the correction. If your gonna follow me around correcting my spelling you are gonna be a busy guy.

Have a nice evening.

Look, I wanted to see if there were any veg wine drinkers out there. Not see how many uninformed comments you have. I do not care if you eat meat.

And RIT has one of leading nutrition programs in the nation. (I bet they let alot of idiots through there.)

Sorry. You've probably heard of militant vegetarians that follow people around and throw blood on fur coats, release infected lab animals, ban foie gras, and other meaningless gestures.

You just happened to run into their omnivorous opposite. Just a bad day for you I guess.....

I don't care if people eat meat. I dont care if animals die. I do care if people go around attacking someone for not eating it, and I also care when people think not eating meat is unhealthy.

Not all vegetarians agree with PETA tactics. I found (and still do find them) them really pompous and annoying. When I didn't eat meat, I had plenty of militant meat eaters giving me crap for something that had nothing to do with them and it got really tiresome.

I've never understood why other people have to get so upset about what others eat or don't eat. Sheesh. We're all lucky to have a choice.

Relax, have some vino. Think of GA as the Patron Saint of, well asses. Everyone gets this sort of treatment from him. Think GA like you would a Mike Tyson press conference, where he's vowing to eat your children. You want to, but you just can't look away.

Now that's the GA I've grown to know and luh...luh... l. Enjoy...

PH

I've had the same thing happen to me and I'm not even a vegetarian. What possesses a person to rag on someone else for NOT eating meat every day?

Please see above instructions. Now if you excuse me, I'm going to get some sprouts and arugula with my "fat" 5'10" size 6 girlfriend. I'm sure GA will be here when I return.

all this vegetarian talk made me go make an avocado/cheddar/onion sammich ! with turkey bacon . that's not real meat, right ?

How does she walk upright? 5'6" tall, 375+ pounds and such little (size 6) feet?

Nevermind. I figured it out. Weebles wobble but they don't fall down...

You people need to get a clue. This is the internet for crissake, it's just like the old west, only with keyboards.....
