| Are you a vegetarian, vegan, meat eater? So, just as the title suggests, are you a vegetarian, vegan, or meat eater?
Feel free to explain.

| White-meat person, or I think it's called "pecto-pollo" something. Basically, birds and fish, but not shellfish, pigs, cows, rabbits, etc. But ducks are cute so I don't eat them. I know it's weird, but I've been eating like this since I was a baby, partially because of heart disease in my family.

| I'm a meat eater. I can't resist juicy breasts and thighs. Neither can I resist a juicy slab of flank oooouuuieee...
I just usually stick to chicken, steak, sausage and bacon.

| I'm vegan. I became vegan because I was scared of mad cow and prions. hehe, It's fun telling people that I'm vegan because after that they look at me weird... and they don't bring up certain issues becuase I have a bit more knowledge on the subjects. I also feel cleaner, more lithe, and just happier. (though, a question of when have I not been happy should be asked...) hehe.

| I am a vegetarian because I love animals and don't feel it is necessary (in our great modern lifestyles) to eat meat. But I must admit, I've broken a few times since I started about 8 years ago. I do eat fish mostly because I love sushi and sashimi.

| I'm a carnivore to the bone. I like my steak rare, along with my women.

| I am 100% carnivore. I have a hard time trusting people who don't eat meat. It just seems wrong for some reason. BTW for those that do not partake for their love of the animals do you wear leather shoes, jackets, belts? Sleep on goose down or wear wool?

| I don't use leather if I can.. I'm worried about the prion transfering through sweat. But I'm not in it because of the animals. It's just a plus.

I do admit there are some things that are next to impossible to find a vegan alternative for, and in those instances I do buy leather.
BUT, the point is to limit my purchasing of leather goods. It's like sitting down and having a beer vs. drinking a 24 pack.

What's the point of being boss species on this planet if we can't be the top of the food chain, too!
