Omnivores unite! (no offense to all the vegetarians out there, I just want to know how many fellow omnivores are here)

You could call me an omnivore because I eat meat and vegetables, but I have so many digestive issues that there is a lot I can't have. But yeah, technically I'm an omnivore. Actually, all humans are technically omnivores. Some just CHOOSE to be vegetarians.

Indeed.

I personally think that vegetarians and vegans sort of deprive themselves of a fully healthy lifestyle- I mean, no offense to them, that's just me. But I think that to be truly halthy, you need a balanced diet that includes all food groups. I'm also not a major animal lover, which might shape my opinion on it.

Sorry, BellaTrix. I forgot you're vegetarian. And I forgot that I decided to stop starting debates. And I'm sorry if that offended you. :)

No, it's okay, you didn't offend me.  I just don't agree. :) But I should really stop arguing with everyone all the time about everything. :)

Hehee. Me too. And I have to stop saying things that other people could read as offensive. Luckily you're nice and can agree to disagree, but if I said that to someone else, I could be in trouble. And animals are fine and everything. They're just not my thing.

I am an omnivore, mainly because I love meat. (Sorry!!!!) But I also think that if you don't like the idea of eating dead animals, than it is probably a good idea to be a vegetarian. But I certainly would not eat SOME animals, like deer, and rabbits, and horses. I can't believe my mom wants to raise rabbits to EAT!!!!

To vegetarians, dead animals are not food groups.  I can't stand taht people think that dead animals are food.  Ugh.  So if you want to be healthy and you don't have any 'meat' -as you call it- then you should eat your hand?

HI!! I AM COMPLETELY AN OMNIVORE!!! (If anybody objects to my eating meat, I am happy to explain.)

Yes, I guess you could call me an omnivore. I

don't eat that much meat, just some, but I still

drink milk and such (which most vegetarians

dislike because it comes from a cow)...Anyways,

yeah.
