Not Ranked. Helpful AND tactful post? : 0 I've been a vegetarian for 5 years. My mom used to sneak meat into my food, and I pretended not to know. Until I learned how to cook my own food, I threw away her food without her knowing and went to bed hungry for weeks until she realized I was being serious about this "vegetarian" thing and cooked 'veggie meals'. My mom thought it was going to be the end of the world and that I should've waited when I was older to turn veggie (she must've thought I wasn't sensible enough).
I guess some people think being vegetarian is a temporary diet thing. Almost no one adheres to a diet plan. Or maybe they think that no one can live without meat. Meat may be just too good to give up (I disagree). That's just the way people think when you tell them you're going to be veggie. |
