"I will have occassional vegetarian dishes. I will not go vegan. I'm a proud carnivour."

Many people who don't like vegetarianism have never eaten at a talented vegan's home. They do tend to work more with flavorings and spices, creating tasty dishes, rather than bland meat and potatoes. There are lots of misconceptions about their diet. The actually do have vegan meat and cheese sandwiches with lots of protein, and they are quite tasty with nayonnaise. I also believe it is a healthier diet, provided that the vegans make sure to get all the nutrients.
In general, I prefer home grown meat and organic stuff. Poison, preservatives, growth hormones and antibiotics in my (or my cats') food is disgusting. So is all that disgusting bad fat. This is "American" and I do not like American food much.

If some of you reading this hate other countries out of love for yours, then the patriotic thing to do is keep sending our fast food joints overseas. That's the most effective way to kill your enemies.

I've cooked vegan dishes. I don't like vegan dishes.

I do enjoy many vegetarian dishes; but only occasionally.

I also don't like fast food. IMO, it is not food.

I'm a proud carnivour.

If YOU are reading this, I seriously recommend you find a different place to post this B.S.

 

I do not believe anyone on this forum "Hates" any other country. What kind of foul puke are you trying to incite? Most FReepers are very tolerable even of our enemies. Your post suggest you are  lousy DU troll. Either that or a PETA plant. Which is it?

 

Sending out a PING for the Viking Kitties. I will let them decide.

You are by far the most pacifist conservative I have ever run across. Are you sure your talents couldn't be used on a more liberal site? Judging by your posts, your "friends" are more than likely Democrats.

 

Are you into that kind of tolerance? Most of us here can hardly stay in the same room. You seem to be tight roping the fence, don't ya think. You remind me of Kerry, "I voted for it, before I voted against it"

 

Your History

 

Oh, and there's this little tid bit, that says a whole lot. Tell me do you have your own opinion about anything, or are you just here to stir sh!t up?

Your Reply:

Yes, you guys have quite alot in common.

1) You both love war, but have different targets for different reasons. 

 

2) You both love big government when your party is in office, and hate it when the other party is in control of it.

3) You both spend our taxes like crazy. Dems tax, repubs borrow. Dems spend on social programs, repubs on weapons.

4) You both love immigration--repubs for cheap labor, dems for cheap cause.

5) You both love free trade for cheap trinkets.

6) You both want to enforce your morality by law.

7) Few repubs or dems question their party line.

8) Both hate third parties, because they address the issues you won't.

9) Both love the Constitution, when the other is in office.

10) Both have sexually active, drug-addicted teens.

11) You both love the UN, but dems want submission to it, repubs want to control it.

12) You both love the world court. Dems want us subject to it, repubs want only others subject to it.

13) You both oppose child labor, but neither has written a law banning imports from nations that use it.

 

Hey I just figured it out! You just like to piss everybody off, right?

 

Ya know, I think I'll invite a few FReepers to take a look at your philosophy.........

 

If this is what defines an independent, no wonder you guys can't find a candidate that holds up.

You say that only because you have never experienced one of my BBQ's. . . .heaven couldn't BBQ a better steak, and my twice baked potato is an experience and a half.

You bet. . .always like a safe place to eat. Even in the mid-east or a few places in Africa, a McD's is very much safer than some street vender who knows nothing of sanitary practices.

Other than an occasion food item (off a hotel restaurant menu) the third world has nothing to offer.

Besides, we don't MAKE the locals eat at McD's or KFC, they choose to on their own. They are allowed to make that choice for themselves, are they not? I mean, they are responsible adults and not mere children needing our guidance and firm hand to ensure they eat "right."

I've had the vegan dinner experience with a family of vegans. Yuck. Wasn't impressed. Give me a steak, rare, and bread to sop up the blood. . .now that's great eating!

Vegetables and plants have feelings too. How can you eat a tomato? Potatoes even have eyes!

Eat what you want and leave the carnivores alone.
