These guys never fuck around.

Cheers for the shout about this, I had no idea!

so i was reading Metro just now and there was a report on a new trend called "flexitarianism", which apparently consists of a vegetarian eating meat only every now and then. WOW, WHAT A RADICAL DEPARTURE FROM THE REGULAR DIET!

half-assed vegetarianism is what i call it. jesus.

where do these people get off, making up terms like metrosexual and flexitarian? i wish i could strangle these jerks.

I try to eat less meat than I used to, so I guess that term kind of describes me, but it is really annoying and idiotic trying to give it a name. Why must everything have a stupid label?

Azrael

and to me it sounds like a nicer name for would-be vegetarians who can't stick to their commitment. it describes a "vegetarian" (probably complete with holier-than-thou attitude) who occasionally eats meat - so not really a vegetarian.

My mom is playing shitty music in the next room and it's pissing me off.

What's the shitty music?

And I've never heard "flexitarian" before. That's just pathetic. Want the same feeling of unwarranted superiority, but don't want to make a commitment to not eat meat? Call yourself a flexitarian!

I like meat too much to give it up, even though I keep meaning to try vegetarianism out.

Legacy_Of_The_Night

Meat is indeed too good to give up, but I never really felt the compusion to be a vegetarian.

If I ever did, though, I'd move to India. That's the only cuisine I can think of where the vegitarian food doesn't suck.

I just ate Reindeer. Yummy.

i guess i'm kind of a flexitarian because i never cook meat for myself but if i'm at someone's house or whatever and food is being offered to me, i won't be like "zomg that's touched meat i won't eat it." i usually do my best to pick the meat out because i don't like the taste or texture

it surprises me people have a hard time cooking a dinner without meat, and i support people who try to just eat it once or twice a week rather than every day. giving them a name is probably pretty silly though. not as bad as people who are "vegetarian except they eat fish," though. fuck them. especially since they're common enough that people actually ask me if i eat fish when they know i'm a vegetarian

Azrael

and wtf people distinguishing between meat and fish? except for health reasons and maybe resources used to get them there is no difference, and you're still eating animals.

as for giving up meat i think it would be very easy, but then again we don't eat meat in my home so it would just be a matter of replacing less than 20% of my diet.

lol i'm indian 😛 and what about Italian food? if you like pizza and pasta with meat, you'll almost surely like it without.

Fish aren't cute, is what it is. I support PETA as much as the next lefty, but for god's sake, support an animal that you can't call Cassie the Cow or whatever braindead nonsense you're trying to put together to humanise something so clearly not human.

Legacy_Of_The_Night

PETA is so full of shit it's not even funny.

There are some good vegetarian pasta recipes, and maybe some good veggie pizza recipes, but I honestly can't imagine eating Italian and not having at least a bit of meat with it.

noodles

vegetarian pizza and pasta are great, especially because tofu works really well in them because there's so many other things for it to absorb flavour from

Legacy_Of_The_Night

Pasta with a pesto & walnut sauce tastes really good.

This is why I hate people who care about whales. Way to root for the biggest creature in the sea :rolleyes:

To give their drab meaningless lives a sense of belonging and being... 😃
I'm not a pansy, I'm a metrosexual.
I'm not a douchebag, I'm a flexatarian.
Souinds like some kinda cult.

Rhys

I'd rather be in the cult of the pansies than the cult of the metrosexuals 😛

Bastards. I hope they're ok, Chabad is looked at as slightly odd, but they're harmless and generally some of the nicest Jews I've ever met.
