response to angryafrican's post We eat meat - get used to it
I am not sure I could be a vegan, but to say "We don't look down at vegans. No matter how disgusted we are in their eating habits." is quite intolerant. You don’t want people telling you what to do or eat, and I can understand that. However, saying you don’t look down on vegans, and then insulting their eating habits as disgusting is not really being culturally sensitive.

I am a foodie, and I love just about all types of food, including meat. But I have often wondered if I would continue to eat meat if I had to raise and slaughter (or even just slaughter) the animals I eat. I don't hunt, and have never bought live animals for food - only meat. And I think that separation from the reality of where my food comes from has a large part to play in what I eat. I think I might miss meat since I am use to it, but more and more I am starting to wonder why I still eat meat when I have (the luxury of) other options… Thanks for giving me more to think about!
