Thank you for the comment!
My vegetarian fr...Kathy,<br />Thank you for the comment!<br />My vegetarian friend does not wear anything leather; however, he eats meat sometimes, so I would have to say he's not a true, hard-core vegetarian. I would say he is MOSTLY a vegetarian.<br /><br />We are going to have to decide (soon) what we are going to do because as of this morning, one of the roo's is crowing like crazy. I dont want to be the reason our town bans chickens! :-) <br /><br />Thanks again for the comment! They are always appreciated.

I'm not much of a meat eater but I do eat some, just not big chunks of it. My daughter/son are basically vegetarians. I think we can get by with a vegetarian diet if you are very well informed on nutrition and lead a non-active lifestyle. By this I mean we work in an office, have appliances to do our work, machinery, etc. If you had to work by hand, let's say construction, farming by hand (1800-early 1900s), live off grid doing hard labor- you need more calories and those are probably best achieved with meat. The raw foods advocates and some vegetarians/vegans don't get enough calories assuming they are not eating cake and donuts. I don't like hurting animals but we definitely process deer, purchase a hog and process our own meat, small game, etc. I think home raising and butchering is much more humane than big business meat. I would not worry too much about their opinions. Does your vegetarian friend wear leather or anything else made with animal byproducts? I'm not sure how you can be vegetarian (other than just preferring vegetables to meat) if you also use animal byproducts.
