Vegetarians?

Okay, I understand now. :cool:

Never heard of a pescatarian before. Oddly, I know quite a few people who will eat nothing from the sea. They eat meat and vegetables though, so I guess they are just lazy omnivores.

Me, I love veggies; but I love meat too, especially chicken & bacon. I will eat anything in a shell except oysters. Other than Bumble Bee solid white tuna, I don't like fish with fins. :no: Hate lamb though, and it's not cause they are cute. I just don't like the taste. :yuck:

Read an astrology book years ago and the author touted the health benefits of being a fruitarian. Is anyone into that? All you eat is fruit, no veggies, legumes, nuts, or meat. I think that's way too restrictive nutritionally speaking but that's just me.

Fruitarianism is actually not as strict as you think...but I still couldn't do it. "Fruitarianism is a diet of only fruit, nuts, seeds, and other plant matter that can be gathered without harming the plant."
 
I tried it for a while, but was beaten by a bacon sandwich.

I do enjoy veggie food, but I couldn't give up meat and fish completely.
 
If I could have a steady diet of Indian food then I might consider converting to being a vegan. However at this time I would have to call myself a Cullenesque Vegan ( I only eat the meat of animals other than human) LOL!
 
I'm primarily vegetarian (I can't say exclusively). I'll eat a fish taco here and there, but otherwise, I don't eat anything with eyes and a mother! My kitchen is strictly vegetarian. I've been into healthy eating since the mid '70s and have found innovative ways to make vegetarian meals that are cost effective, gourmet, and healthy at the same time. I worked in the grocery business for 11 years and in the restaurant business for 18 years. I'm glad to have learned what I've learned about food preparation and nutrition as there is no substitute for good health. Eating sensibly along with regular vigorous exercise are 2 components of great health. My plan is to live to be at least 100. So far, it's working!

Now even Tube Steak??
 
I try to limit my meat intake to a few times a week, and when I do eat meat, it's usually chicken or turkey. I stay away from fish for the most part, mostly because it's my belief that are our oceans have been overfished in the first place- and the commercial farms are nastiness. To say nothing of the mercury that taints the fish supply. I do have a weakness for bacon though. Good lord, I love my bacon.:biggrin1:
 
I flirted with varying degrees of vegetarianism over the years on and off, and settled on something that works for me. I pretty much completely restrict my animal protein intake to that which is produced free-range organically. I was never much of a dairy person anyway, so using soy milk wasn't that difficult of a switch. Once every couple of months or so I indulge myself in a purchase of a meat package from localharvest.org. It's much more expensive than conventional meat, but being as I don't believe we need to consume as much meat as we have been in the last fifty years or so, I figure that paying more less frequently balances out economically. I do enjoy fish, but I try to be selective about the species, trying to eat lower on the food chain. I do not have a problem with animals being used for food, but I do choose to use my dollars to vote for the producers who raise animals more humanely and not intensively. For me, the benefits are health and environmental awareness. I'm not perfect, but I do feel my choices make some difference.

i tried doing the pescatarian thing and it was short-lived. my GP, cardiologist, and even my surgeons put me back on a balanced diet, which included meat. i wasn't getting enough protien with just fish so back to chicken and beef it was.
 
I am. I never really liked meat anyway, so when I was old enough to make my own choice (my parents wanted me to eat meat growing up) I became vegetarian. I don't see the point in eating it anyway. I know a lot of people do, for example I accept that my boyfriend does, but I don't like it myself. Each to their own. There is a lot of nice tasting food without meat in, so it's no problem.
 
Lived on a macrobiotic vegetarian diet for several years. Got tired of fussing over balancing the yin and yang of everything that went into my mouth. One day outside of Gumps (the old location) in San Fracisco, they had a street vendor selling dogs for 10 cents each for some sale promotion. I bought one. Ate it. I had the runs for a week.

I've been a vegan off and on for years at a time. Yesterday I had chorizo ranchero con huevos divorciados. The chorizo was the traditional and very authentic Mexican stuff made of chiles, lymph glands and a bit of lard all ground up and stuffed tight inside pig intestines. Hmmmm. . . . delicious! I love egg dishes, pork roast, ribs (pork and beef, dry rub and wet), I eat at least one ribe-eye steak a week (red and juicy). Chicken and fish, shrimp, oysters (raw), and Iranian caviar with raw egg .... hmmmmm. Good stuff.

And my combined cholesterol when last checked (2 months ago) was 122 -- that's LDL and HDL compbined.

Oh, and sushi and ceviches, grilled octopus, calamari, fish head soup, shark and swordfish steaks.

But I eat more fruit and vegetables than I do meat. It helps when you live in parts of the world where minutes ago fresh mandarin, orange, grapefruit, mango, guayaba and melon juice is common and the idea of "frozen" doesn't exist.
 
Happily vegetarian for 5 years as of the new year. No cravings and can't imagine going back. My diet is closer to vegan because I hate dairy products and eggs for the most part, and I look forward to becoming fully vegan after college :)
