Do vegetarians ever really irritate you?

Question

sometimes they really annoy me with their preaching it makes me sick. like i had a friend that said she wouldnt sit with me at a restaurant if i ordered something particular at a restaurant. it was something like prawns so it wasnt even like suckling pig or a whole fish with its head on.

otherwise my bf is really irritating about his free range eggs, even chickens free to roam a barn isnt free enough for him. he always buys my stupid eggs for me since i wont pay more for some stupid eggs.

i also dont know if i "trust" someone that can stand not eating flesh for so long lol joke. mmm, i think ill go make some prawns. =)

Answer 1

a bit yes.

i hav to friends who r veggies so i try not to eat meat around them. i mainly eat chicken, eggs, fish. but what irritates me the most is that they start say bad stuff about meat eaters in front of me and with an added 'NO OFFENCE'

I can't help eating meat but my doctor said i needed some protein in my diet other than eggs. unfortunately some 'PEOPLE' (my so-called friends) dont understand.

So if you know any irritating veggies Red, then please take my word of advice. Tell them to GET STUFFED.................!

Answer 2

No, let them eat what they want. I do.

Answer 3

I'm a veggie

but i dont mind if other people eat meat around me.

I only dont eat it because i dont liek the taste and ever since ive become veggie i feel a bit healthier

But all my family are meat eaters and it doesnt bother me at all.

I dont preach at them and im not afraid to cook meat for them i just make sure i wash my hands before i cook myself something

Answer 4

no they just think a animal life is as importan that anything else

Answer 5

Sounds like they only say anything when what you are doing intrudes upon them, like eating around them. If you don't like them saying anything at those times, then either don't hang around them during those times or don't hang around them at all.

BTW you get to choose your friends, which includes your boyfriends, so it isn't as though you are stuck with them. Why make yourself and them miserable if you have such a problem with this?

Answer 6

Yes, only because I'm a vegetable, well a cabbage actually.

Answer 7

Be careful this is your RANT (TOS)..

you need new friends and BF

hook up with a  retired senior ☺

I agree with you.. I want My eggs laid by properly fed hens

the poultry industry buys formulated feed to insure the chickens health..and quality

free range,, eat bugs,, maggots  even their own chicks and any dead vermin and maggots found in the dung,,  my free range hens seemed to relish my dog's dropping.. sorry

xawedc ( any one else notice spell check is broken??)

Answer 8

That would annoy me, because if you can respect their choice of diet, then they should respect yours.  

Answer 9

no they don't irritate me. it's there choice and i can see where there coming from. anyway there diet without meat is healthier than ppl like us non-veggies who eat meat. i sometimes think bout going veggie.

Answer 10

As its been said it shows a lack of respect.

What would they say if you started talking about meat and chickens etc. They wouldnt like it so they shouldnt go on about their belief.

I work with a girl who has a strick belief when it comes to diet, she wont have milk or eggs cos its cruel etc etc.....I respect her choice and would not make her feel bad about it so why do people not respect my choice?

Answer 11

Actually, Red, "barn eggs" ain't from chickens "free to roam a barn". They are from chickens locked up in huge sheds, nearly as bad as battery sheds but without the cages.

No space to spread their wings, no sunshine, no fresh air, no respite from the incessant, noisy pressure of their fellow-prisoners.

Isn't this stupid?

They frequently fight - a free-range flock will fight for a while until the pecking order is established, then live in peace. In a "barn" the flock is too big for this to happen, and the fight just goes on, with no space for the losers to hide. Cannibalism is frequent, even when the "barn" is checked for dead birds.

Isn't this stupid?

A "barn" has no earth to dust-bathe in or scratch in for seeds & insects - just a floor of sawdust that is never cleaned, because the birds are too mentally ill to tolerate such a disturbance. This floor, of course, builds up a layer of chickens' excrement, whose ammonia actually burns their feet, bellies and hindquarters.

Isn't this stupid?

The laws that would have you in court for ill-treating a budgie in this way do not apply to chickens.

Isn't this stupid?

Some people believe advertising slogans without bothering to research the facts.

Isn't this extremely stupid???

Answer 12

No  because i don't no anyone  and i don't see why they should irritate anybody you eat what you like and they eat what they like  

Answer 13

I used to go to school with a girl who claimed she was Vegetarian. The only reason she said she was Vegetarian was because she only wanted to eat Cheese and Onion crisps, and used it as an excuse to get what she wanted. She was really pale, flabby, gaunt and really moody.

So to summarise, yes, at least one Vegetarian has annoyed me.

Eating Meat is essential to your body, as it contains Proteins that you can`t get from Vegetables. Eating a balanced diet of Meat and Vegetables is more healthy than just one or the other!

Answer 14

That would drive me nuts! Get a new friend to go shopping and to restaurants with! keep this one for other times!

Answer 15

Yes they irritate me alot especially since a large portion of my family are vegetarians and im not.Things like christmas and other holidays can get very irritating while they're  eating tofu or something and preaching at me for eating steak, like less cows are going to be killed if i dont eat it.  

Answer 16

No, but people like you do

Answer 17

My Mum's a veggie nd she's fine!!! She doesn't care (as long as she's not eating it! She cooks meat nd doesn't make a fuss.
