True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
From what I've read on the Internet, I can be classified a semi-vegetarian. That means I eat meat, but only rarely (as in, usually no more than twice a month). I'm kinda proud of myself, though, that I can make tons of different interesting meals for dinner without meat in a country where everybody eats pork with potatoes every single day and herring on Friday because we're mostly Catholics and if you can't eat meat, you eat herring
The dish I'm most proud of in that respect is my lasagne bolognese. The thing is, instead of minced meat, I use soy beans. But it still looks and tastes like meat, which is super awesome because soy beans are much cheaper than quality beef.
I try to go meat-free 2 or 3x a week. It's a little difficult though, because of my boyfriend's dietary needs.
I am by no means a vegetarian but I do like fruit and vegetables very much.
It seems a great deal of people think vegetables are boring but those people are stupid and need to learn how to cook. Vegetables are extremely flexible and can be prepared in a zillion different ways. Even the gross ones can be delicious (screw cauliflower and brussels sprouts tho, ive yet to have either of these prepared in a way that makes them tasty)
My favorite meats?
Spicy Italian sausage, breakfast sausage, ground beef.
I'm not... proud of my eating choices, I guess? xD Nor am I ashamed of them. It's just what I eat! Proud vegetarians and proud steaketarians are on the same level of "hellishly annoying" to me.
Get out. Your kind aren't welcome in these parts.Originally Posted by Shorty
I've been a vegetarian for a little over a year and I'm awful at it. Not because I cave and eat meat, but because my diet is probably terribly unhealthy. That being said, that's more a side-effect of being a broke university student than anything.
My room-mate and I the other day were talking about how substitutions for meat have more or less been mastered, but not the taste and texture of skin. I miss skin.
What parts, sugar? The middle? Fence-sitting?Get out. Your kind aren't welcome in these parts.
I'm not sure I could really say that I'm "proud" of what I eat, so much as that I'm really grateful and lucky that I am able to spend time and money researching, preparing and eating the foods that I do. Eating a vegan diet has never made me feel deprived or as if I were eating anything less than food - I enjoy eating lentils, beans, rice, kale, tofu, etc., so it's easy. Nixing gluten will be an actual test of willpower, though. I imagine that how I feel about bread is how most people feel about cheese or bacon.
Proud is the wrong word so I'll go with happy (point me to someone who takes pride in making the choice to eat meat or not and I'll happily punch them in the face for you for being a douchebag).
And the food that makes me happy to eat meat? Meat. All of it. Except ham because I don't really like any meat from a pig. Strange thing that. But all that other meat? Gimme, gimme!
Off topic: I wish I had known eggs werent fertilised when I went through a stage of meat eating guilt in highschool
On Topic: I like Steak
Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
Still, eating chicken ovulation might be icky for some
I like ham on occasion and i love bacon, but I'm not the biggest pork fan in general. I make pork chops for my dad and boyfriend sometimes though cuz they're usually pretty cheap.
Oh. I love ribs. Memphis dry rub ribs.. With a side of bbq.. And I dig pulled pork.
I don't eat much meat anyway, so I sometimes find myself thinking I could easily become a vegetarian if I so wished. But then I remember chicken parmigiana exists.
