Absolutely nothing wrong with eating meat, just like there is nothing wrong with be vegan. What I don't like is when another person tries to force their beliefs on me.

Nobody has the right to tell me what I can and cannot eat. I know people who are extremely unhealthy that are vegans, the same goes with heavy meat eaters. I'll stick to the everything in moderation diet. There is a perfectly healthy balance in the middle.

How many vegans do you know? I only met one in my entire life, and he was healthier than basically everyone else I knew, he looked like he was in his early 20s when he was in his late 30s, smart, and energetic guy. Believe it or not he didn't influence me to become a vegan at all, he rarely even talked about it, it was years later that after doing some research I decided to try it out, and my mind was blown. My life was changed completely for the better. Money, health, relationships, energy, everything became clear, mind fog went away, my brain is now like a rocket ship filled with an unlimited supply of fuel.

I understand why you don't think there's anything wrong with eating meat, I come from that same viewpoint, but I learned to educate myself and learned the truth. The reality is, meat factories cause a lot of pollution, it causes animal extinction, worst of all it causes apathy and even sickness in people, forcing people to take pills they don't need when a diet cure is right in front of their face.

The society we live in is very delusional. No one cares about math or science, no one cares about education, no one cares about a healthy diet, no one cares about the environment, no one cares if their religion is wrong, people like to live in a fantasy world where meat is perfumed with antibiotics and drugs and think no animal has to suffer and get slaughtered, where taking pills and going to the doctor daily is a normal activity, where cancer, diabetes, and obesity are completely normal, where lack of energy so you need coffee and five hour energy just to move around is completely normal, where working a job to buy things you don't need to impress people you don't even like is completely normal. Just a delusional world. The diet cure that can literally solve all their problems is right in front of their faces but most people are simply the blind following the blind and everyone gets lost together.

Spend time educating yourself instead of going with the flow chanting: "Meat is good because I was raised to eat meat and my friends eat meat and everyone I know eats meat except for the healthiest people I know who don't but I have never tried removing meat from my diet, and I have never done any research on why meat is bad, or why a vegan diet is good, but I am right because I was born and raised into this society and people agree with me." - Your average meat eater's argument (I come from the same boat but I departed on the smartest island and left you guys stranded, lost in your own delusions and fantasies)

Fun facts:
Meat is full of cholesterol and saturated fats and consuming too much is not good for you. Fruits and veggies are filled with fiber, antioxidants and phytonutrients which are very good for your body.

What makes vegan food? Anything without meat or dairy. Yes you can still eat pizza, spaghetti, sushi, general Tso, hamburgers, bacon, etc, just vegan versions of them. I had General Tso vegan last night and it was delish. Every restaurant serves vegetarian foods, soups, tofu, etc, you just have to ask the waiter. So am I missing out on anything? No. Do I have more energy? YES. Am I smarter than before? YES. Am I happier than I have ever been in my life? YES. Do I take any pills? NOT ANYMORE! Try it out for a while and see the big improvements in your life.

I recommend watching these videos. So you will arm yourself with knowledge. Watch the first video, then the second, and you can skip the third if you want. You'll learn a lot from the videos.

I know far less vegans these days than I used to. I got sick and tired of their holler than thou attitude. It's gets tiring to be told that they are better than everyone else because of their beliefs.

I make very conscience decisions on wear I buy my meat and dairy. I only buy farm fresh eggs from a local farm a few blocks away from my house. I've become friends with the family over the years and I know exactly how they are treated.

I also only buy meat from my local butcher. I know the farms where he gets his beef, chicken, pork, etc. They are all relatively local and they are mostly family farms. I don't support meat factories. i choose to support smaller farms that treat their animals as ethically as possible. They also don't add a bunch of crap to the meat.

Frankly, I don't trust meat from anywhere else. I guess I'm lucky to have the luxury of making that choice, I wish more people did that have the option. Hell, same goes for my fruit and veggies, local farms as much as possible. I don't eat a shitload of meat, but I'm not gonna stop either. I eat fruits and vegetables daily and trust me, I'm healthy. Eating meat from time to time isn't going to change that.

In fact, tonight I will be BBQ'ing a nice juicy steak.
