Your thoughts on Vegitarianism

I used to think that, so on a KLM flight to Amsterdam I booked the veggie meal, and while my fellow passengers tucked into a meaty starchy ham and lettuce sandwich - I chewed on my lettuce sandwich.

I try not to eat meat because of, well, the horrendous things I saw at the end of the film Fast Food Nation. I don't know anything about the intelligence and feelings of animals on the part of life, family, and such, ... and I'm just going to assume the worst. And if I do have to eat meat in front of my mother, I'll just ... "take one for the team", so to speak.

I like the way vegetarians taste. 

I have no real considerations one way or the other. Certainly no condemnations. What people choose, as long as they don't interfere with me is a-okay. But I do appreciate anyone with the conviction to stick to the positive choices they make, and I view making a dietary, and often, philosophical choice as positive.
Vegans have a tougher row to hoe when it comes to easy sustenance choices, and I could never put myself through that. Too lazy. Though I do tend to run across the rare militant vegan who wants to interfere with my life and I want to trip them into a gutter for the smug moral superiority lectures about my choices. Vegetarians tend to be more docile and non-confrontational, live and let live.

I don't practice Vegetarianism but I don't disapprove of it either
