=  Reasons Why Being Vegetarian Rocks! =


 * 1) Livestock is not a sustainable source of food. Cattle production around the world consumes enough grain to feed the ENTIRE world's people.
 * 2) Slaughter houses are cruel and inhumane. Regardless of intelligence, no animal deserves to suffer through life.
 * 3) 'Meat' can include the tail, head, feet, rectum, and spinal cord of an animal. YUCK!
 * 4) Animals are pumped full of growth hormones and fat to become bigger faster, as well as antibiotics to fight off potential infection. Do you really want that in your body?
 * 5) Rainforests are constantly being cleared for agricultural land to grow grain to feed livestock. Do you condone cutting down the forest for a steak?
 * 6) There are millions of cases of food poisoning recorded every year. A huge majority of those cases are caused by eating meat.
 * 7) African countries export grain to developed countries to fatten animals up for dinner, yet millions of Africans die from starvation annually. where's the humanity in that?

**Here's an interesting article on human physiology and why eating meat at every meal is really not necessary! ** []
