Unfortuantely teh vegan message board has died - someone hacked in to it!

The truth is we are built as omnivores - yes - proven form tooth structure
Most eat too much meat for their own good - proven but research.
Meat is costly to produce as stated above! (the theory that the worlds food problems could be soved if we all went veggie or vegan is open to much debate)
It doen't hurt anyone to be veggie
It does hurt animals to eb carni or omni
We would not have some of the rare breeds whcih are nice to look at if we didn't eat meat in the past.
Production of these rare breeds was primitive GM research.
I don't like GM either.

Live and let live - I don't eat meat - I can't eat nuts and many oils so I have to compromise in some areas.

I cook meat for non veggies if I have to (in their houses when they don't know what to do with it).
I let my kids make their own decision - they both eat meat
I'd rather they didn't but

Live and let live!
