I have been contemplating on total vegetarianism for quite some time now. Although I have been a big poultry and seafood eater for many years, some introspection has been hinting me to lean towards a all-veggie diet. People who know me, know that I don't cook meat at home, not even BBQ. But whenever I go out, the first chance I get, I dig my fingers and teeth deep into a chicken dish or fish for that matter. My excuse, which by the way is a strong one, is "I need my Protein". That is the only reason why I am still a weekend carnivore.
Aptly, thus, I consider myself a flexitarian - trying to be a 100% vegetarian, but not quite there yet.
For those of us, who realized that unwatchful food habits are the worst thing that we could do to ourselves, in this fast paced 'live perfectly' generation, here are a couple of very interesting links that will tell you how "living green" and "what you eat" could be - quite common-sensically, and obviously - linked together.
