i didint argee with the inhumane treatment of animals, this is where me an johnny clash.

I don't agree with the inhumane treatment of animals either. But I can't worry too much about it, we should be sorting out the inhumane treatment of other humans around the world before we start doing anything about the animals. Just a matter of getting the priorities straight.

I did a similar thing with one of my payments the other month. Half way through the conversation with my bank I realised what it was for and felt a but stupid.

thats a bit of an irrelevant statment really, at no point have i argued that the treatment of animals needs to be put ahead of that of humans, althrough the thought is quite appealing :-)
To be honest the world is slowly going to pot really isnt it, stopping the inhumane treatment of humans is almost as realistic as stopping the inhumane treatment of animals, its allways gonna be there and its a harsh reallity but its too late to stop it.

the two are linked if you think about it.the massive consumption of animal products is having a major impact on thr planet.the first people to bear the brunt of it are the poor and needy.
the land used to produce meat vs the land needed to produce plant food.methane etc,etc.

I've got some vegetarian mates and i completely understand where they come from when they mention the death of animals, as a reason for not eating it. I hate cruelty to animals, i hate animal slaughter, i'm such a fucking woolly woofter i can't even watch programs like Trawlermen without feeling sorry for the fish.

I know some say stuff like, "Well if you can't stand it being killed, or couldn't kill it yourself you shouldn't eat it." They've got a point, because if i had to catch or kill anything i ate, i'd be veggie because i could never do it. But i have a choice and I don't have to kill it or to remember where the meat came from. And I fucking love meat.

I don't understand vegans purely because Moby is a cunt and ruined Play with some meatist diatribe.

Ditch her Mr T.

There is no point asking them as them as they don't get it and so there could be god knows what in any of their dishes

So, no Oriental restaurants of any stripe whatever understand the concept of vegetarianism? Wooohhh, would you like to be a bit more sweeping? I once gave up trying to explain to an Italian restaurant in Swindon that minestrone soup with chunks of bacon in it wasn't veggie, so does that mean the whole Medditerranean area can't do veggie food either?

I only wanted an idea of where to go

 

Go to Rendezvous mate - really nice food and it'll piss jobby off

That isn't what I said, you've taken my comment out of the context was made in.

You said that if they had fish dishes in the veggie section of the menu that you should ask if any of the other veggie dishes contained fish. I said there was no point in asking them as if they got it wrong in the first place they couldn't be trusted, as they didn't understand what veggie means or just didn't care.

I can speak with some authority on the matter having been veggie for over 20 years now - I was of the original converts before it became hip and trendy and all those other fuckers jumped on the bandwagon.

I am going to have a 14oz fillet steak so take that you fuckers

With the greatest of respect, that's utter bollocks.

Oooh, get him on the high (soya) horse. I've managed to eat out as a veggie for a similar amount of time and have found common sense and simply asking when in doubt enormously useful in that time.

[Arriba]

eating out has improved massively for veggies and vegans in recent years,but i know of many occasions when non veggie or vegan food has been served up with the resturant completely oblivious to their mistake.

i've seen it first hand as my parents and two of my siblings are vegan.my dad wont eat out as he doesn't trust resturants to get it right based on past fuck ups.

Me : No. I don't eat any meat. That includes burgers. If it used to have eyes I don't eat it.
