I am the Warrior clan in India"The Marathas" we are meat eaters, But I have stopped eating all that since last 11 years. It's no force or any myth in it, a small incident changed it all , I was invited to a Party where it was a barbecue, and while eating a few of them were staring in my plate as I had the best of the piece of the mutton, the next day all that was eaten the earlier night was not for my body,I had to see the Doctors, & it all changed my mind to give away meat in my Life for GOOD. I am a Happy Vegetarian now.

It'd take an awful long time to adjust - as long as the meals were hearty and flavorful, it wouldn't be that big a deal.

Well, people do it all the time so I suppose I probably could too but I wouldn't do it by choice. I like eating meat.

What a lie. Vegetarians on average are of slightly better health than meat eaters. There is no huge difference, but vegetarians are less likely to die of heart attacks or strokes, which are really common causes of death.

You look like a lovely girl with a sweet, sweet dog. So I wonder if you have ever asked yourself, why do have animals I call pets and eat animals called dinner? does it make any sense at all?

Sure I could survive, but I really would not want to have to. I like my protein from dead animals particularly cows, chickens, turkeys, and pigs.

Sure I could, I love meat, but it is not essential for me to eat it. My daughter is a vegan and an excellent cook. It takes practice and a bit of creativity, but it can be great.

It's certainly possible, people do it all the time. A vegetarian diet can be quite healthy if it is done correctly (vegan, not so much). However, I'm a BIG meat eater. I love it and I don't plan on living without it. I'd be extremely unhappy as I don't particularly like fake meat foods. I'll eat them with the family members I have that ARE vegetarian and they can taste quite good (tofu can be awesome), but they never actually taste like meat and I can really tell that.

Possible, yes. Happily, no.

I could but I'll miss a lot a good "churrascada gallega"

Cochinillo al horno

Cordero o espeto

And I wouldn't be very Spanish if I wasn't able to apreciate the amazing variety of embutidos of my country
