Will you convince me to go vegetarian?

Question

...without using Peta2 videos or personal feelings whatsoever?

it's been in the back of my mind since seventh grade and the only meat i really like is turkey, so if you manage to convince me it probably wouldn't be too hard. tips would be great, too.

Answer 1

No one can convince you. You have access to the internet, so you can see all of the information that we have seen.

If you really want to be "convinced", watch Earthlings. That is all that you can ask of anyone, the rest up to you.

If you heard that vegetarians cannot be healthy or strong, know that it is all a lie. You just have to eat right and stay committed to a certain fitness level.

Answer 2

No. Why would you just want to east vegetables??? Just eat alot of vegetables and non-meat stuff and not call your self a vegetarian. That away you can eat meat whenever you feel like it. Which you could anyways even if you was a vegetarian but then if you did you wouldnt be a vegetarian.

Answer 4

Well what i did was first i just didnt eat red meat or fish. so the only thing i ate was turky and chicken.

That works really well, because you still feel like you eat some meat, so you dont have to stop all at once. You can always find something at a restaurant or snack bar (durring summer) like a turkey sandwich, a chicken salad, a chicken pasta dish, ya know. it doesnt close all options completly.

Then, in a month, a year, or three years from now, whenever ya want to, you can always just stop eating meat completly. I still eat chicken and turkey, its just alot easier for my lifestyle than going completly.

Also if you try to only eat organic chicken and turkey when you CAN (at restaurants its like mad impossible) thats a good way to feel better about it too.

Hope I helped! Good Luck, whatever ya decide to do.

Answer 5

Only if I you choose me for the best answer :)

Vegeterian, is healthy food, without animal products, I meen meat.

Anyway... you can eat eggs, milk, cheese... Im doing that (exept the eggs)- Lacto-vegeterian.

It is healthy, and there is low risk of atherosclerosis, hearth attacks,  tumors, and HTA, and ect...

You're life will be more quvalitative :) also quantitative.

If you wanna be veggeterian, do it.

Enjoy!

Answer 6

Not peta, but just put both your palms on your heart and ask - which is "right" and which is "wrong".

Answer 7

I want to go vegetarian but its really hard for my parents to find food that I will eat so I don't eat red meat, sausages or mince, I still eat white meat which I have been told is better then  eating red meat. My parents respet my desicion and when they have these things for dinner they will be my meat replacement foods like vegetarian hotdogs and vegeburgers.(All made with vegetables) I also eat tofu, cottage cheese and other meat replacement foods to get enough protein and stuff. When I move out of my parents home I hope to become a vegetarian.
