Vegetarianism, or worse, veganism, has become extremely popular recently. Often associated with a more moral or benevolent lifestyle, vegetarianism has also become a feasible diet option for many in the last few decades. Many religious groups, political/social coalitions and even certain schools of philosophy agree that the best way to go about diet is to avoid eating meat altogether. Many cite health benefits and an ethical necessity. There are others who are not trying to persuade you to believe that vegetarians are guaranteed to live longer, happier, healthier lives. Though they don’t necessarily think that we are morally compelled to treat animals as we would treat humans, there are many who would urge you to cut meat out of your diet entirely for the sake of the environment.
