I hope you don't mean that slaughtering what humans breed is better than slaughtering what human don't breed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I mixed it in rice and ate my first mouthful, I vividly remember that I have teared up a bit.

But I craved more for egg than meat during that period. Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the western view, the world is for human consumption, exploitation. Our view has always been different, we have the notion of animal rights, earth rights , nature rights.

Outside India, particular places where English is not native language, its so difficult. There are many vegetarians have whi turn to non-veg due to the lack of food options. coffee_rules and randomGuy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muloghonto Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 11 hours ago, Shaz1 said: I am assuming you have been living under a rock. Eating veggies without doing any research? I have done enough research on this manner. Rather they feel more pain or none is irrelevant. Fact is you are eating a living being rather you are eating plants or meat. You can’t sit there and believe you are pure when facts go against your logic. So it should be easy for you to cite a scientific article that states plants feel pain. response to stimuli != pain/pleasure. And yes, as a devout meat-eater, i have no problems admitting that eating a living organism incapable of feeling pain, is a much more human thing than eating something that feels pain. However, i don't consider this 'humane-ness' necessary except in small doses, as the entire point nature illustrates very well, is that the natural order of things is to victimize other species for the gain of one's own species.

Lokayata has always been the most popular form of belief system in Indian history and they are A-ok with natural exploitation. So were the Charvakas. The world is for exploitation of a species as capable as exploiting it. That is the empirical evidence of the natural world, bereft of any ideological tilts.

Agree, I was one of those who became non veg in NA due to being lazy and tired of looking for veg food. Back in India, I didnt feel like eating non veg for 2 years. People craving for meat in India , I feel they crave for the cuisine, the base , the masala, the veg food you get in India is equally palatable as the meat alternative.

Vilander Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 In TN only some of bramins( iyer/iyengar) and certain hindu casts like saiva vellalar/pillai/mudhaliar ( <3-4% ) are vegetarian, rest are all NV, even in the veg folks most current gen eat poultary/fish. The percentage of red meat eaters though if they did a research will be lower as thats really restricted to lamb/goat/pork..some fringe beef but limited.

I have seen ST koravas hunt and eat squirrels arnt they non vegetarian lol and would the squirrel meat provide all the nutrition ? folks who eat any variety of food that is balanced and has all the nutrients will not be stunted these two are not related.
