Wed, 13 May 2009 22:02:18 +0000 http://www.ecorazzi.com/?p=16504#comment-305066 In my case it was something I watched on TV that made me become a vegetarian for good (now I'm almost vegan - I only eat honey occasionally and eggs from home-bred hens)... It was a documentary where it was shown that for each pound (it was in kilos but it's the 'same' thing) of shrimp fished 100 pounds of several species of fish were thrown overboard already dead! That shocked the hell out of me because I loved to eat shrimp. I loved animals and the environment but at that point in time I started thinking: well if I truly love animals how can I contribute to their suffering? At that moment I had 2 choices - I could either become a vegetarian or continue to eat animals and stop being a hypocrite pretending to love them... I chose the first. I never regretted it and if it's up to me I'll never eat another animal as long as I live!

When I was younger I was on and off but when I got a job I couldn't make any excuses. I had the money to buy what I needed. I can reate.
