Much of the climbing community is big on health and nutrition.
There seems to be a large community of vegetarians, so I was just wondering who out there are veggie-eaters vs. meat eaters. Also, if you are vegetarian - what are your reasons? Health reasons? Ethical? etc....

As far as meat goes I eat Chicken and turkey only. Gave up red meat about 15 years ago for health reasons.

Wow I really expected more than 0 vegetarian responses (only 8 votes cast so far though..)

I for one am a meatitarian

I am with SCIN on the chicken and turkey, but, since I started climbing I've developed an addiction to the Mingua. Won't touch a steak or burger but don't leave a bag of hot Mingua around, go figure, its just that good. Didn't ape evolve into man after he incorporated meat into the diet?
Vegans- they're just so privileged to have the luxury of maintaining some picky ass self satisfying diet- that shit wouldn't fly in most of the world. Their malnourished asses wouldn't even make a good meal for a panter- but one of those fat ass extra cheese pizza vegetarians would!

p.s. to whom it may concern, I don't think Moccasyms are very vegan :cough: cough:

I like the saying that if God didn't want us to eat cows, he wouldn't have made them out of beef.

There isn't much I won't eat, I just do so in moderation.

I am not big on veggies and "Theo" (as in "the old lady) is a vegetarian. Meals can be interesting at our house, or a pain in the ass it depends on who you ask. She stopped eating red meat because she simply does not like the taste. I find this strange but hey who am I to disagree? more steak for me!!

I think we are all talking about swallowing here. I definitely don't swallow. :shock:
