Ditto. I have not eaten meat or chicken since 1991. Clean arteries and outliving my dad and his dad are the benefits. I do not miss it at all.
Same with me as well. Whole food, vegan diet for about 4 yrs now. Best decision I ever made for myself. The health benefits are almost countless. Would never go back.
That being said, I do believe the customer's discussed in this article were being aggressive asses. But, of course, as usual, the people commenting here cannot stay on topic, and drift into attacking the lifestyle itself. Lack of focus.
Oh, and I enjoy mocking angry vegans as much as anyone, but posting a picture of bacon just isn't witty. It is an insult not to vegetarians, but to humor.
I quit eating red meat because my father died of colon cancer and I believe the studies that suggest red meat increases that risk.
I am certainly NOT dogmatic about it and don’t ever tell people what to eat or not eat.
