It's a dumb commercial. I can't wait until Wendy's tries to pimp out a Veggie burger or a portebello something or other and the Wendy girl has like dyed green hair or something.

I'm a Neanderthal, and proud of it. I prefer to eat things that once had parent's. If it lived, I'll eat it. I'm not big on stuff that comes out of the ground. Potato's, tomato's, corn,, lettuce, cucumbers/pickles, and that's about it. I'll eat other veggies sometimes, but it's a case by case basis.

I'm a vegetarian, but getting into arguments with people that eat meat is totally silly. I don't eat meat, you do...that's great. I'm not militant.
But the whole "I EAT MEAT BECAUSE I'M A MAN AND I ONLY EAT MEAT AND BLAHBLAHBLAH' thing is REALLY tiresome.

I think its just backlash. I haven't had to endure it in awhile, but I do recall a good number of vegetarians preaching at me an awful lot about how wonderful it is to be a vegetarian and how wonderful they were for making this "moral" choice. It wasn't the fact that they mentioned it or even thought it, it was that they would just go on and on about it.
Now, I've got some friends of the vegetarian persuasian. Some do it for dietary reasons and some just can't stomach the thought of eating dead things. What they all have in common, and what keeps them as friends of mine, is its they're personal choice and they don't pass judgement on me for mine.

You vegearina s say you don't wann eat animals. You won't eat anything with a face. But you'll suck the eyes right out of a potato, munch down on an ear of corn. You'll chop up a head of lettuce, rip out a heart of artichoke...
*finishes up channeling the spirit of Harland Williams*
Seriously, my dad's a butcher so eating meat isn't a problem. You have to eat both in order to really be healthy, though. I had to eat a salad or some vegetable to go with whatever meat he decided to cook that night.

Vegetarians shouldn't judge meat eaters for eating meat, and meat eaters shouldn't judge vegetarians for not doing so. It would be so awesome if it worked like that.

I'd like to know (totally related issue) when commercials stopped trying to make me want their product and just concentrated on being as annoying as humanly possible. The girl in this ad looks at him like it's a rational conversation, when I'm at home wondering why she's not winging her drink off his forehead for being a gibberish-spouting knucklehead.

I don't get why people just don't eat what they want and keep it to themselves. This! Proud ____ eaters are annoying, no matter what food they're flaunting to eat. But to be honest, I'm slightly more annoyed by "Lisa Simpson" vegetarians/vegans. Man have been killing and eating animals for millennia, other animals kill and eat animals, so I don't see the big deal (as long as said animals are killed with as little sadism as possible). Nutrition elitism has come into fashion just after eating enough, twice a day, had become a rule and not some sort of dream... I bet people who are starving couldn't give a smurf about the poor animals suffering.

But the whole "I EAT MEAT BECAUSE I'M A MAN AND I ONLY EAT MEAT AND BLAHBLAHBLAH' thing is REALLY tiresome. I hope you don't think I was acting like that, because I'm not. I'm just simply stating my thought process on food. if you don't eat meat, that means there's more for me! I don't walk around championing my self for eating meat, I just can't survive without it.

I only make fun of my roommate for being a vegetarian - and that's only because he's a vegetarian who wishes he could eat meat. Dude craves bacon all the time.

Nah it wasn't you. It was more of a general statement involving people I've encountered in my day.

First I have to say that because I'm such a degenerate I keep thinking of the title of this thread in other terms.
I can't stand any self-righteous person. All of them are full of crap and their own "self-goodness". Give me a break.

Vegetables taste like vegetables, but meat tastes like murder and murder tastes pretty damn good.

Anyone ever eat Boca burgers? They're pretty good really, it's like vegetables that taste like beef almost. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) ![](http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f352/erisi236/bocaburgers.gif)
