    Ah, vegetarians - meat eaters with extra steps. I was one to before I learned about milk and pregnancys and rosters in the egg industry. People that prides themself for begin vegetarian all their life baffels me how clueless they are.

      You might be surprised to hear there are other reasons for being vegetarian than animal welfare. Guess vegetarians aren’t the only “clueless” ones…

      People feel they are ‘doing enough already’, which I really don’t get. If you changed yourself after leaning that these animals have to die for you, why not change again?

        Yeah… mind blowing… Some that I have spoken with are born into it. They don’t seem as emotionally invested as someone that realized what your dinner plate causes all this pain and suffering. Its just a way of life for them… without and explanaition why ?
