bon appettite!
Mad Cow disease!
BECAUSE THEY'VE SEEN US EAT
I know 2 with real reasons, one doesn't like meat, the other is allergic to it.
Well here's a guess - maybe they think it is a healthier way to eat. Many of the studies on food and nutrition originate in the U.K. so perhaps Brits are better educated on the subject.
i think that personal choice ,,,and who decided do it will have own opinion and reason
For the love of animals and disease
I can tell you what I tell vegetarians when they say I should become one because I could not kill an animal.
I could also never work down the sewers, but it does not stop me using the toilet!!
Does this have to be just people in the UK, or could it be people anywhere?
One reason for being vegetarian is that it's healthier. You stop eating all that meat, which is bad for your heart. Another is that you stop being greedy, because growing a cow deprives thousands of people of food and water so you can have a good steak. There are also many people (like the Hundus) who believe that animals are sacred and should not be eaten. Then again, if you've ever studied the horrid and cruel ways in which chicken, turkeys, cows, etc are treated by the food industry (for example, cutting up cows before they're even dead), you'd be so horrified that maybe you couldn't eat meat any more. Then there are all the growth hormones, antibiotics, and really noxious substances fed to animals, substances which go right into your body. Then there's the fact that you feel better from eating veges (and fruits), you sex life improves, and you feel happier.
Lots of reasons for me:
1. I promised myself as a kid not to eat lambs. I remembered when I was 30 and stopped.
2. We are at a level of civilisation where we can produce alternatives to meat such as tvp and quorn substitutes. Why keep killing?
3. Unlike many, I would kill to eat to survive but I think many carnivores would baulk at the idea.
4. It is inefficient feeding grain to animals to kill them for a small amount of protein when the amount of grain required would feed us more than ten times' over.
5. You probably don't know what meat tastes like. By the time you buy it the flavour has gone and you use gravy or sauces to make up for it.
6. Why is some meat acceptable and others not? Why won't you eat horse or dog in the UK?
7. If you're a meat-lover, why frown on cannibals? After all, "You are what you eat."
8. Vegetables are delicious. Roasted, boiled, steamed, mashed or raw, they provide most vitamins, minerals and even proteins required for the human body. They provide roughage, have next to no fat (cereals excepted) and only good carbohydrates. They come in pretty colours too.
9. If you have a garden you can grow vegetables and salad to sustain yourself. Most gardens could not support enough animals to keep you alive for long.
10. Creating large numbers of mutated animals to provide cheap meat is also adding to climate change through methane expiation.
So, wake up and smell the coffee. At least reduce your meat intake.
Why only UK? There are vegetarians in most parts of the world. Anyway, I know some of them just don't like meat. Some convince themselves that it is healthier to not eat meat. Then there are others who don't like the idea of eating something which used to be alive.
