[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will never understand this all-or-nothing attitude about vegetarianism. Why can’t people eat less meat or almost none but not be so militant about it? Do they need the capital V Vegetarian label? Choose to not eat meat, don’t join a cult. If someone makes soup with chicken stock or someone puts jello in a dessert, eat it if you want to. If you try to live your life in such a moral black & white way, you will fail at every turn.

Agree that this is a bizarre post. I'm PP with the veg husband. He's Hindu. He respects his religion, culture, and family by not eating any meat and fish, including things like chicken stock and gelatin. Why randomly criticize his personal choices? BTW he's never labeled himself Vegetarian with a capital V...it's just a part of his overall identity. Good grief.[/quote]

I think religious reasons are different than ethical reasons. OP didn't say this was religion-related. (But some could argue that all religions are a cult and so the PP still has a point.)[/quote]
