I'm not having a go at vegans as I am all for pro choice, but our bodies are made this way in order for us to be meat eaters. We have teeth that are there for ripping and chiewing teath and we have strong stomach asids to digest. We are meat eaters by nature and I think that's forgotten sometimes.
Sorry any vegans out there, but I don't understand it - maybe i'm nieve!

I used to be a HUGE meat eater I ate meat with everything and since I started to watch what i eat - I rarely eat meat in fact haven't for the past 6 months - I only ocassionally eat fish/seafood and even though we are meant to be meat eaters, the thought of all the steroids/antibiotics etc the animals are pumped full of well personally I can do without eating that and so i dont.
I also saw a prog once on channel 4 which saw 2 people debating about the pros and cons of Gm farming and organic farmig. I only caught the end of it but that put me off.
In all honestly since I've stopped eating meat I've lost weight, in the first month i lost about half a stone and since then its been coming off steadily and I haven't changed anything else to do with my lifestyle and rarely get the chance to exercise. If I did I could prob knock even more off.
But they are my reasons for not eating meat and i dont miss it in fact i feel better.

Rats cats and dogs, why not?
In a seige any thing is game, i just hope i am not beseiged in the near future!
I used to work in the poultry industry, removing the battery hen system and replacing it with a barn egg system. How the british public ever accepted intensive farming i cannot imagine.
There would be 5 hens to a cage the size of a microwave, only three could eat through the bars from the conveyor that delivered their grain, liberally laced with chemicals etc. Whilst the first three ate, the other two would constantly peck at the back and necks of the three until they were let forward to eat, then the three would do the same to the two. Their feet were distorted by never having a perch (it is a natural thing for a bird to roost) walking on bars big enough for their droppings to drop through into a pit that was bulldozed clean every 18 months. The grain they ate was contaminated by the droppings of literally thousands of mice that swarmed everywhere. The sheds would house a number of hundreds of thousands of birds laying 3-4 eggs a day every day.
My friend is a shepherd, he once had to assist a farmer that runs a farrowing house with a birth,he was horrified at what he saw. The barn was full of sows suckling their young, they lay down to do this, trapped in a pen. they cannot stand or they will crush the piglets. This goes on for weeks then they are inseminated again and it starts over. The sows have sores on the sides they lay on. Sickening really.
Consequently i have absolutely no faith in the farming industry and their products when i suspect it to be from an intensive yield system.
Viva les Vegans!!!
