Vegetarians: What did you think about vegetarians before you became a vegetarian?

Ok first of all I'm 15 and have been vegetarian since I was 9 and I am perfectly healthy. My skin is not pale (well not particularly but I am English) and you're right eating any animal is not vegetarian. You won't need to skip pizza anyway because it is allowed for you to put vegetables as a topping.

I think don't think it's wrong to drink milk and eat eggs after all nothing is hurt or killed in the process. You can buy meat substitute products like Quorn or soy which supply all the protein that meat can gives and tastes the same (some say they prefer it) and comes in many different forms from sausages to nuggets, steaks to fillets. Becoming vegetarian is a great idea and I insist you try it.

Congrats for looking into making the switch! You seem a little overwhelmed! First of all- a vegetarian can mean a number of things.

Usually the term refers to people who eat no meat, gelatin, rennet, or anything that is directly associated with slaughtering animals. However, this main type of vegetarian will eat milk and eggs. Less common forms eat only dairy, only eggs, or neither.

A vegan is more extreme, they avoid all animal products in every aspect of their lives. Someone who eats fish or chicken is NOT a vegetarian. You will not become pale and sickly if you learn to eat the right things.

A vegetarian diet is healthier than a meat filled diet. You just have to know what things to eat. There are tons of articles and information online about a healthy veggie diet, just google it and look around!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
