My girlfriend is a vegetarian and has been for about half of her life. I am not a huge meat eater, but I must say that for the most part this is true.
I don't get mad at her, but I do laugh at her from time to time. The only health issue I see with meat is the amount of hormones these factory cows receive, no way that meat can be good for you. Grass fed is something I wish I could buy all the time.
But please, don't tell me humans are not supposed to eat meat. That is where I draw the line. If you don't want to, I don't care, but It does get under my skin when I hear that we aren't made to consume meat.
Because of her though, I have been going down the road to healthy eating. Fast food, and soda have been completely removed from my diet.
