I've been vegetarian for 3 months; prior to that, I loved meat. Loved it. All my favourite foods were meat based. In fact, I rarely ate a meal that didn't contain meat.
Then one day, I began thinking about it, and decided that my desire to eat meat couldn't outweigh the fact that I thought it was wrong for animals to be forced into an unnatural life, and to be bred to die. I still think meat is freaking delicious, but morally, I just can't eat it anymore.
Ever since, I've done a lot of reading about vegetarianism and the conditions that animals are kept in before they end up on your plate. The meat industry is pretty disgusting, and that's putting it lightly.
I'm not here to push an agenda though - I'm just interested to know what it would take (if anything!) for the average lover-of-eating-meat to go vegetarian?
