The Flesh You so Fancifully Fry

Is not succulent, tasty or nice.

Why is it, in the 21st century there is still a need to eat meat?  You would think in this modern culture with all of the inventions, supplements and variations of cuisine there would be no need to kill animals to eat.  Is meat eating so ingrained in our culture that we cannot change to a different diet?  A society should be judged on how we treat those with no voice.  Well then this society is doing a miserable job.  Why does a person with a pet dog think it disgusting to eat dog but more than happy to eat a cow or a pig or a chicken.  They are beautiful animals with a soul too.  Do they deserve to die and then be eaten?  Is that what god intended for these innocent creatures?  Now I can see hundreds of years ago when man was much less civilized and did not have the options that we have today that animal flesh was one of his few options.  In our modern world of 2013, there is no reason or excuse for killing and eating animals.  Vegetarian and vegan cuisine is quite delicious and its very healthy for you too!!

I was once a carnivore and for that I am truly sorry.  Animals did not need to die so I lived.  Meat eating was part of life for me, it was how I was brought up.  I never questioned it.  Some type of meat was always part of dinner or lunch.  It took a lot of thought and reflection to realize there was no need for me to eat meat and it was wrong to do so.  A big part of my decision was the adamant stance of Morrissey for animal rights.  He  has always been an advocate for animals and vegetarianism and I so respect his views.  He sings the song "Meat is Murder" at each of his concerts along with a video showing how animals are slaughtered.  Its a very powerful riveting performance.

In conclusion, I hope our society can move to a culture where people no longer need to eat meat.  A vegetarian diet is not only healthy for you, it is also very tasty.  Unfortunately, I don't see people changing.  Most people are too caught up in their own pathetic lives to think and reflect about how we should treat those with no voice.  Vegetarians and vegans are seen by a lot of people as strange or weird, so most people would never consider going outside the mainstream.  I hope there will be more movement to meat free diets but I don't have much hope of anything changing in the near future.
