I notice that no veggies have taken the bait yet.

none of us have bothered since u dont have ne good arguements for eatin meat yet..

Fart scientists have studied cows and concluded the methane from their farts are a cause of global warming

was gonna say turn every1 veggie so we could get rid of cows and therefore reduce global warming, but i forgot bout milk.. lol ah well

[Klebe]

Bring an end to global warming - eat cows.

stop eatin meat n all that mad cow disease / foot n mouth probs wudnt happen as ppl wudnt keep as many animals..maybe, plus uncooked meat jus looks / smells gross..and u dont get ill from eating undercooked vegetables

[brooner]

A sizzling, Sirloin Steak, blood oozing from it, practically still mooing, with a lovely green pepper sauce, and some potatoe gratin.

Now i expect any normal people will be salivating at the mouth.

If not, then try this

Eat Meat, be healthy[/img]

talking of sauce, i always find it amusing that at weatherspoons with the steaks they have the peppercorn sauce listed as being suitable for veggies!

uncooked meat jus looks / smells gross

How can you say that? You've hurt his feelings. Now who's being cruel to animals?

Would that be the lamb or gross's feelings being hurt?

As the subject of this topic was rigidly defined, I feel honour-bound to continue the insults to vegetarians.

For every animal you don't eat, I'm going to have three.

I'll warn your local heart surgeon to be on his/her* guard then.

This may well sound poncy, but after trying the extremes of vegan life (I volunteered on an Australian organic vegan farm for a fortnight), I have developed a meat-reduced diet. There are many reasons for eating meat or animal products, eg taste, texture, easy source of Vit B12/protein/calcium, etc (feel free to argue against these, veggies). However, there are many reasons to eat meat less often than once a day. They include:

1 Reduced methane output from cattle etc, therefore less glob warm input

2 Reduced water usage (it takes much more to raise animals than to grow veg/grains)

3 Reduced pressure on land** (in UK and abroad) (it takes many times the amt of land to keep meat-eaters alive compared with veggies) Esp imp re cattle. More forests mean more CO2 is 'soaked up' (simplistically)

4 Less likelihood of having high levels of fat in one's diet, therefore healthier (or at least I feel healthier)

5 Reduced sum of suffering in this world (except for those near a veggie farter - although meat-eaters' farts, whilst less frequent, are often worse smelling!)

6 The creation of space for more humane methods of rearing and killing animals, due to the closure of 'factory' farms. Or for (re)planting forests on.

(*Oh dear - clue that writer is wooly Guardian reader and possibly a vegetarian.)
(**Inc prime forests, that may be cut down before they are even mapped, thanks to over-zealous carnivores!)

My overall fitness plan:
Eat a balanced diet. Burn as much off as you eat.
Can I have a £1m book deal now please?
