Vegetarianism

If one person chooses to no longer support the farm factory industry and gives up meat, it will not make a difference or impact the companies at all. But, lets says that it takes 10,000 people converting to vegetarianism to reach the threshold that will cause a reduction in poultry production. There is a chance that the lives of 250,00 chickens could be saved. If there is 9,999 people then you joining the cause does make a substantial difference. If you choose…

Celebrities are some of the most visible proponents for healthy living and eating well. There are many celebrities who promote vegetarian lifestyles, but some take it to another level and follow vegan diets.

However, a month after beginning a vegan diet, Bell found the lifestyle rewarding and she found she…

the topic of vegetarianism from the perspective of environmental concerns that are often associated with the production of meat. In the article, Vegetarianism and Planetary health (2000), Michael Allen Fox states that strict vegetarianism ought to be adopted in order to avoid the eco-destructive nature of the livestock industry. Although there may be some truth to Fox’s initial premise which claims that eating meat is harmful for the environment, I will argue that strict vegetarianism is in fact…

Herzog argues that meat is so tasty because we “evolved from a long line of meat-eaters”. He argues that like chimpanzees, humans enjoy the way that meat tastes. Humans simply eat more meat than chimpanzees do. Another reason describing why meat is so tasty is because, in the words of BoBo, “that’s how our ancestors…

When I was about 5 years old, I decided to become a vegetarian. I said goodbye to the life of chicken and eggs to welcome a life of vegetables and tofu. As a child, I never ate any kind of meat other than chicken and eggs. My love for butter chicken, tandoori chicken, chicken nuggets and omelettes was very real. Anyways, becoming a vegetarian was a decision that I made myself. No one forced me, pushed me, or even asked me. In fact, my entire family was shocked when I declared my new lifestyle.…

You scream, I scream, we all scream for… VEGANISM! Okay, okay, no we don’t. Let me just start off by saying this is not another vegan advocacy. Trust me, there’s already one too many of those. I’m not here to convince you that not eating meat will somehow magically let you talk to animals or that if you do choose to eat meat you’ll be condemned to hell, although, some people are so ignorant and/or gullible they’d probably believe it. I agree, some vegans are so angry at the world sometimes I…
