Going vegetarian * 1
    #26587348 - 04/08/20 08:56 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

So the more time passes by the less I can seem to justify slaughtering animals for meat. I say that I don’t care but I can’t in good conscience say that anymore. I want to stop eating meat but I’m not sure where to start. I know that with leafy greens I can’t really stomach them well and eating them feels horrid, but I don’t want to eat animals anymore. Any advice?

Yes.  Tempura, lots and lots of fungi and plant tempura.  Easy to make, makes everything exquisitely delicious and if battered lightly is nice and healthy.  Search engines will give you an easy recipe for it. 

I’m sure a staunch vegetarian can tell you what’s up.  But, I’m an omnivore. :discorex:

Learning to make Indian food is probably a good place to start because you get nutritionally balanced recipes and actual flavor, instead of defaulting to just bread and kale.

I regret to say I am not a fan of mushrooms. I’ve only ever had them in meat or gravy that had meat but without that they taste...bleh.

Honestly my biggest hurdle was the taste factor as I had many failed attempts to try and enjoy salad. But now I’m beginning to realize that I can’t justify eating meat unless it’s for survival, and I can’t support factory farming anymore. I can’t lie to my heart any longer

Are you eating eggs?

Can't really go wrong with rice, there's so much you can do with it. I make like 10 different fried rice variations. Can add beans or some other stuff to make a complete protein, olive or coconut oil for fat.

Like Patrickkn said if you're into Indian food, they crush it for tasty veg options. You can do a lot with pasta and noodles and stuff. It can be tough getting the calories without being super carb heavy.

Honestly though a lot of vegetarian products aren't all that great for animals or the enivronment. Per calorie the amount of farmland and therefore destruction to animal habitats is massive. Not to mention all the animals killedn during machine harvests and when they're working the fields with tractors and such... and all the pesticides/fungicides etc used that are horrible for bees insects birds and animals, even organic farms often use a lot of toxic stuff.

Probably best to hit up local farmers markets and even try growing stuff yourself if possible. I eat meat but I'm trying to eat less of it, and will be getting a grass fed beef and pasture raised poultry/egg CSA from a local farm this year. Still killing animals, but the animals are treated pretty well and have a relatively chill life.

Lots of thing you can substitute or there are lots of meals that are well rounded and have nothing to do with meat at all.

The healthiest and best i ever felt was when i went vegetarian. After several years i am now back to eating locally sourced chicken and fish a few times a month. I like to eat meat only sparingly no pork or beef at all. The daily consumption of processed meat is partly contributing to the rise in cancer and heart disease.

So the point id like to make is there are alot more reasons to go veggie than just for the animals.

OP maybe you should kill the animals yourself? Get some bunnies, bask in the cuniculture. You get cute little bunnies to hold on to and then eventually you snap it's neck or pop a pellet in to it's brain, then pull it's skin off like a sock and toss it's innards in the compost heap to help feed the next litter of bunnies. Thus, the circle completes, coming ever closer to god and you experience nature in its purest form - unmitigated growth followed by short periods of the ultraviolence. Which is also cost effective and delicious :cookiemonster:

I Have To Eat Meat. I'm Not Down With Eating Ungodly Amounts Of Nuts & Lentils Everyday To Match The Same Amount Of Protein In A Steak Or A Couple Of Burgers.

I Eat A Balanced Diet Of Meat, Carbs, Fruits, & Veggies. I Don't Think It Is Healthy To Go To One Extreme, Or Another.

Think Of Your Diet As A Pie Chart, Each Section Is A Different Nutrient. Eat A Balanced Diet & All Of The Slices Are The Same, Which Means All Of The Essential Nutrients Are Being Delivered To The Body In The Correct Amounts.

However, Cut Out Some Of Those Sections & Go To One Extreme Or Another & You Lose Or Reduce Sections. So The Nutrients Aren't Being Delivered In The Correct Numbers. Which Means The Body Is Not Running & Working To It's Full Potential.

This Can Result In Lack Of Energy, Lack Of Sleep, Lack Of Focus & Drive, Low Testosterone Levels, Etc...

Dont do it man. Plants lives matter. Save a tomato, eat a stupid cow :thumbup:

Edit: for my real reaponse: I'm with you. I CAN hunt but have chosen not to for ablong time now. I only eat meat from the store because I feel like NOT eating them is disrespectful to the animal. I'm at least going to give its life some meaning by taking in its energy to give back to the world. :shrug:

God doesn’t exist so you can’t really get closer to something that doesn’t exist.

Also if I had to kill the animal myself I would starve to death.

Which mushrooms have you tried? Look ontonsome recipes for sauces with mushrooms in them to add to your vegetable based meala. Chicken of the woods prepared just like chicken cutlets can taste exactly like a chicken cutlet if you do it right. On the whole, just be open to trying lots of different and new things and im sure you'll find foods that work for you.
