Shit happens, I think most vegetarians are like that because it also helps them from falling back into the habit of meat.  I know those vegetarians would complain about how good the bacon smelled when I had some.  Go figure?

you again???

I think bacon smells dank but I'm a veggie.  My fister-gf eats meat all the time in front of me and i dont care.  I even eat pepperoni pizza i just take off the meat.

The guy who didnt want you to put meat in his fridge sounds like an OCD prick  

I like how you say most vegetarians are like that because it helps them from "falling back into the habit" as if eating meat is some addiction   I have no desire to eat meat whatsoever, it just doesn't look appetizing anymore.

Well young underaged impala  , most vegetarians I meet do act like it was a previous addiction, like it was something they indulged in and shouldn't have previously.  (This is especially true for those who converted from eating meat to vegetarian, rather than just raised vegetarian).

It took a while to come back to meat, and chicken and steak used to make me really sick..

Yeah I am kind of nervous about the switch back if I ever change my lifestyle, I've heard from a couple friends and now Pris1 that eating meat after a long break can really fuck your digestive system.  also since I stopped drinking milk, whenever I have diary products like ice cream or cheese I fart non-stop for dayzzz.  almost as bad as those damn protein powders

Pris is right about cows eating grasses as the main part of their diet. Beef cows that is and that is what we are talking about. Dairy cows are fed a mix of grasses, grains, soy, alfalfa or a TMR (total mixed ration); but not beef cows. This is common knowledge in farming communities, I am from Wisconsin man and worked on a couple different farms. The main one I worked on was Olson Dairy. They raise black angus for beef, and Holsteins for dairy and there is a very big difference in their diets.

Yeah I know; I've worked on ranches too.  But here's the deal, almost 80% of the meat we consume as a country isn't raised that way.  For those of us in areas like this, we have pretty good access to nice beef.  For everyone else,

Its raised this way: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factory_farming

Check out what they feed.. I feel like some of it has to be rumor, and propaganda, but they also force grains to a disgusting amount and I've seen that with my own two eyes..

I get beef local, and yeah, its black angus, and yeah, its the fucking bomb.

I don't think anyone can really argue the ethical implications of said factory farming practices, but what are you gonna do?
The country is mostly mindless sheep, with every bit as much voting power as we..

OH! and there was this part too:

"Livestock production is also particularly water-intensive in indoor, intensive systems. Eight percent of global human water use goes towards animal production, including water used to irrigate feed crops.[57]"

Also, I found this:

http://www.waterencyclopedia.com/Tw-Z/Uses-of-Water.html

I have to admit, its a lot lower than I expected it to be, so I'll hand that one to you, Pris.  It is, however, quite a bit higher than you thought too, so.... Call it a truce?

Still though, pris, its a far-cry from saying vegetarians are depleting the fresh-water resources..  That would be a tremendously difficult argument to win, but I look forward to spectating your attempt.
