I am not currently a vegetarian (although I have been on-and-off), however, I do feel that vegetarianism is a good idea...after all, the act of feeding grain and vegetables to animals to fatten them up for slaughter to feed to humans seems disgustingly wasteful in the larger scheme of things when you have a lot of people starving in this world.
A wise man (Albert Einstein) once said that the natural evolution (psychologically and socially) would lead to a vegetarian diet.
Personally, I like meat, and I dont have a problem with eating meat for the reasons of "animals have feelings," however, I think that it is important to use food in the best possible way...and making cows fatter and more tasty to richer humans seems a bit wrong to me....
