Quote by: Waychel  I hate the term, but my diet is what some people call "pescotarian" - meaning that the only meats I regularly consume are chicken and fish. I don't have any health or animal rights reasons for my diet. Chicken and fish are just the only two meats I have a taste for. If I'm going out to eat with someone though and they want steak, I always go along with it, because I do not want to be an inconveniance by being offputting.
I find strictly vegetarian diets to be extremely unhealthy. Having your diet consist entirely of vegetables, fruits and grains is just as bad for your body as having it exist entirely of meat products. I don't know where people came up with the notion that depriving your body of the nutrients and proteins it needs from a certain foodgroup was "healthy". I think the real misconception among vegetarians is that they overlook the fact that what kills people is not meat, but an over-abundance of it accompanied by a lack of exercise. |
Lol...no vegetarians eat only fruit veggies and grains...what do you think tofu is for? its high in protein. You can be a vegeterian and be just as healthy as a meat eater...you just have to be alot more conscious of your diet though. Its definitly a pain in the ass.
