That's silly, meat is great for your body. Its the best source of protein. And I'd like to put out there that eating eggs is not killing any animals at all, the eggs are not fertilized=no baby chicken in there.

Look at the statistic thick skull, refraining from eating meat is quite healthy for you.

Chickens are raised in crowded, unnatural environments. There are usually 3,000 or more in one pen. The birds are not able to move about freely or even spread their wings due to the over crowding. They use "nests" made out of metal and they are bred by unnatural means.

Thats called cruelty to animals, thats why I do not eat eggs.

Number of people worldwide who will die as a result of malnutrition this year: 20 million
Number of people who could be adequately fed using land freed if Americans reduced their intake of meat by 10%: 100 million
Percentage of corn grown in the U.S. eaten by people: 20
Percentage of corn grown in the U.S. eaten by livestock: 80
Percentage of oats grown in the U.S. eaten by livestock: 95
Percentage of protein wasted by cycling grain through livestock: 90
How frequently a child dies as a result of malnutrition: every 2.3 seconds
Pounds of potatoes that can be grown on an acre: 40,000
Pounds of beef produced on an acre: 250
Percentage of U.S. farmland devoted to beef production: 56
Pounds of grain and soybeans needed to produce a pound of edible flesh from feedlot beef: 16

There is more than enough vegetable out there for everything.

Umm.. I can get protein just fine without meat and vitamins.

And...
* In order for hens to lay mass amounts of eggs, artificial light is on 17 hours a day. Each hen averages about 300 eggs per year. Once a hen's egg production declines they are slaughtered. Most hens live an average of 5 to 6 years.

Hey, if we can talk about who is sick and who is not in general then can we talk about who is veg. or who is not?

I eat what is the cheapest to buy in large quantities and since Meat has been the cheapest by far I have been eating it. Yet I do not Like the guilt that is pressed upon me about how and where I am getting this steak from ..... If i could go without meat i would. Yet my budget and family would never accept that. Thats one reason why im only eating protien bars and energy drinks for the past week ... that and working for the whole day
