Vegan, vegetarian or omnivorous?

Which are you and what is your take on the healthiest things to eat? I'm just curious so tell me all about it!

Why do you choose the lifestyle that you do? Is it purely about a diet or does it involve other things like politics or religious reasons?

edit: To clarify for everyone, a vegan doesn't eat anything from animals (ie egg, cheese, milk, meat) and a vegeterian eats no meat but still other animal products, and an omnivor or all-eater eats a mix of both animal and vegetable.

(to PETA-fanatics and animal-munchers alike: keep it clean, guys)

I don't understand. What's the difference between a vegan and a vegetarian?

And I only eat children.

Omnivore...best of both worlds :D

No meatitarian?

Nevermind...I found it.

Or maybe I'm a meatan. I don't use spices on my meat as they contain some kind of dried plant.

Omnivorous. If we shouldn't eat meat, then why did God make it taste so good?

Omnivorous. I haven't been vegetarian for a long while.

i consider myself a carnivore. veg is not my thing

I'm a vegetarian.

Omnivore all the way.

The only thing I like about vegetarian lifestyle is that the fact that 1 field of vegetables can keep a lot more people fed than any meat form of food. It takes a ton of energy and land to make meat.... With that said good luck convincing me giving up a sirloin for a field of potatoes. Human-after-all

to make meat according to industry standards...yes, it takes a lot.

But to make meat (beef) all you need is a field to pasture the steer on. For swine, all you need is basically any food waste, of which humans make quite a bit of even in lean times.

As for the topic, well, I like everything...I am omnivore, like my totem animal the bear. I dont eat much beef though, I prefer fish and chicken. I really love good, practical vegetarian food, specifically Indian cuisine.

Do not ever show me a Tofurkey or a vegan burger, though, that is vegetarians having the completely wrong idea.

Wow, not many Vegans or Vegetarians in OT.
I'm a Omnivore (I feel like I'm talking about dinosaurs)
I eat meat, but I'm not very big on red meats. If I do eat like, steak it has to be really lean because I hate chewing on fat >.> Call me picky.
Most of the meat I eat is like hot dogs, lunch meats, bacon, shredded chicken, tuna, etc.
I LOURVE Almonds, and Pineapple.

My take on Healthy would be eating Almonds, Pineapple, White Peaches, Plumbs, Tuna, and Oatmeal regularly.
I'm not big on vegetables, though if I had to choose, I would go with Lettuce, Celery, Cauliflower, Carrots, and/or Broccoli.

Maybe cut pineapple out of there, throw in spinach and cabbage and yeah! That's pretty healthy.

Pineapples are much too acidic for your body (in large amounts,i should say).

The less acidic your diet is, the better.

Being vegan makes you better than everyone else.

I'm a vegetarian :o. I never, in my life, had a steak, hamburger, meatloaf, etc. I just can't stand the thought of eating a poor, innocent animal :(Paramorexx
