This thread rocks. Going to have a nice cheesesteak and fries for dinner to honor this thread.
Y'know, Morbach, every time you eat a cheesesteak sandwich a little piece of a vegetarian's soul dies.
So Bon Appétit!

I just personally clubbed and ate a baby seal while wearing a full length REAL fur coat. That's how I roll.

Rory- Please realize that more animals are killed when a large vegetable or, especially, a grain field is harvested.
Those huge diesel-eating machines rip through land that birds, rats, mice, gophers, snakes, frogs, squirrels, racoons, etc. have been living in for a year. Killing them and/or their nests. That is, if they're not already dead from the huge amounts of pesticides, fungicides and herbicides.
Thousands of animals are killed or maimed for every grain field that is planted and harvested.
Then after harvesting, more huge diesel-eating machines have to move the grain to a huge diesel-eating factory, where the crop can be cooked, flaked, made into O's, however it's processed, and then packaged. And packaged into what's generally a petroleum based bag. Then, of course, shipped, generally far away to your market.
How much bread do you eat? How much wheat? Oatmeal? Rice? Pasta?
If you don't like the idea of animal suffering, it is much more humane to support sustainable farmers who allow indiginous species to co-exist alongside their herds/flocks.
Sustainably raised animals are allowed to live on grass, in the sun, in huge fields the way nature intended.
They eat minimal amounts of grain.
The farmers also practice humane travel and slaughtering techniques.
Think about this:
For every *single* sustainably-raised steer I eat, a vegan has killed tens of thousands of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects.
And yes- I eat minimal amounts of grain.
If anyone out there truly cares about animals and the environment, this is the least hypocritical way to go:

You've made by far the best post on here. We've gone back and forth on her and made points and had some (alot) of laughs. But this is by far the most convincing point that holds alot of water. I laughed when I read it because I see how truely hypocritical they are. Great post.Seeing as the same issues keep coming up and also noting that no one commented on what I wrote earlier in the thread, I'm gonna repost it 'cause I want some feedback, dammit!

No matter what you eat, something dies. That's life.
I totally understand a vegans point of view though, and that's fine. I've never had a problem with it.
I have more of a problem with anorexic looking women staring at me in resturants while I eat. They're sitting there drinking their lemon water and eating salad (dressing on the side) watching me chow on pasta or ribs.
