I just realized I never answered the actual topic question.
Anyways, I basically have the same opinion as Lightnin on that.

then youre an exception lul.. well honestly, not eating meat because you dont like the taste is one thing, but doing it because of any other reason is ridiculous imo..
just remember this:
Attachment 32114
"because you dont like the taste"
"because you dont like the taste"
"because you dont like the taste"
"because you dont like the taste"
"because you dont like the taste"

What about these reasons?:
Allergy
Religion
Diet (eg weight problems)
I don't eat meat because I feel sorry for the animals. Some people might say 'I'll eat 3 for every one you don't', but people could also say 'I'll punch 3 babies for every one you don't' and I would still avoid punching babies :3
I don't eat meat because it spares animals, decreases my risk of getting diseases like tape worm and relieves strain from agriculture.
The more vegetarians there are the less food will be wasted and the more land for forests and wildlife will be left over.
I don't make big changes to my life for ridiculous reasons.
Raar!
that makes no sense.. if i dont like something it IS a valid reason for me not to eat it .. why the **** would i eat shit that i hate?.. also there are people that use this excuse for meat.
rammjet, i'd think you of all people would see past this moral faggotry.. animals eat animals.. youre not making a difference at all.. and you need protein from meat, it wont kill you if you cook the shit.. hell i eat my steak rare and im healthy as a horse. enjoy eating eating peanut butter and fish products for the rest of your life.
I'm fine with animals eating animals or people in hunter gatherer societies eating animals. However I live in a western society that is reliant on farming, and being vegetarian is benneficial in that context:
If more of us stop eating meat, this demonstrates that we will be able to generate more food per square kilometer, which means less hunger and more forest.
Not eating meat products additionally means the average pollution from the processes to produce the food I eat decreases, you can actually decrease your footprint by about a third if you don't eat meats- which is very important in a world where pollution is a serious concern.

Animals don't run battery farms and you don't need protein from meat, you can get proteins through other foods you know.
I don't mind if humans hunt for animals and only eat what they need to survive like natural predators, but that ISN'T what happens.
Instead you just sit on your arse while you wait for an imprisoned animal to grow fat and then eat it, and you grow about 10 times as much as you need.
