    Something I'm curious about.. have you eaten meat before? if so when did you stop and why?

    I became a veggie when I was 8, ever since my brother found something that looked horribly like a vein in his chicken XD That was enough to put me off for life. In addition I think I'm getting more and more squeamish at the sight of dead things, blood and internal organs as I get older D: One thing I really can't stand is dead insects/bugs *shudders* I'm moving to Australia in 8 months so I'll have to get rid of my tarantula cos I can't bring it with me :( But I'm glad in a way because it's really young and I won't ever have to see it dead. I don't find anything scary about my tarantula at all but I find a dead tarantula very scary indeed.

    I guess when it comes down to it, It is personal chocie.

    If you want to eat meat you can, and if you dont you dont.

    If an animal was killed in front of you, would you eat it?
    I sure wouldn't... somehow that's different...
    Yes. I've even seen a lamb being skinned, gutted, and butchered while hanging on a hook. Blood was all over the floor as well. Smelt kinda odd, but nyeh.

    I believe I ate some of it's meat that very day, fresh from the carcass o3o

    I could never do that, I don't like seeing things die at all.

    You're awesome, man.

    I've witnessed a chicken getting it's throat sliced, run around headless with blood squirting out its open wound, drop dead lifeless, put in hot water, had it's feathers plucked off one by one, cut up into nice pieces and cooked for lunch.

    But I couldn't eat it after seeing all that.

    I don't see stuff like that at all in the United States, but in the Philippines, just substitute a goat or pig for the lamb, and you're all right.

    Keyword: see. There are stuff that are not shown because people are not interested in things like and such as conservation of lambs. Eh.

    Myself, I have abstained from eating a cooked rabbit (yes, rabbit) after watching it slaughtered. However, I freely feasted on the chickens of which I have not watched it slaughtered. This was a family reunion feast by a livestock farm.

    That headless part would have been kinda neat. Did you know that the human head, once cut from the neck, still "lives" for just a few moments i.e. the decapitated person can still see hear and smell what's going on around them.

    Yeah, I was in Lebanon at the time. I think what I described above would be considered a health hazard in many countries ^^;

    I have never personally seen any animals being sacrificed before, but my Dad's family in another country did something like that. I'm not too sure as to the reasons but they did it to a sheep.

    I don't think I'd be able to watch an animal die, it's not that I'm squeemis around blood or anything but it's just so sad :< Esepecially if they're like in pain and crying. I couldn't quite handle that.

    I can't stand seeing my father prepare an already dead chicken for dinner. I wouldn't be able to witness an animal being sacrificed.

    Aside from putting live lobster into a pot of boiling water which kills them instantly... I've never seen anyone prepare something that wasn't already dead. :|

    I can imagine it would be a little off-putting to have to see it then eat it, though. XD;

    Wow, don't you know what has happened to meat before it gets on your plate?
