Many nonvegetarians wonder what drives vegetarians to give
up meat and adopt an entirely different lifestyle.
There is no single answer to this question. Nonvegetarians
become vegetarians for a number of different reasons - some
even for multiple reasons.

Most vegetarians claim that they became a vegetarian for
one of three reasons.

The first reason, which most vegetarians claim, is that
they have ethical problems with eating meat. Most disagree
with how chickens are debeaked, forced to live in small
cages, and are then slaughtered when they do not produce
eggs fast enough.

Most vegetarians also disagree with the crowded and
stressful environments animals are forced into; and
the hormone-laden feed used to make them grow faster
and produce more.

People who become vegetarians for this purpose often
draw ethical boundaries in different spots, depending on
their personal beliefs. For instance, some staunch vegans
wont consume yeast, wear wool, or even eat certain
vegetables, such as carrots, that require killing the
plant to harvest.

On the opposite side of the spectrum, some vegetarians--
sometimes referred to as pseudo-vegetarians--will actually
eat fish and chicken on a regular basis.

The second biggest reason vegetarians claim for not eating
meat is that it conflicts with their dietary preferences.
Some of these vegetarians simply do not like the texture
and taste of meat; others do not eat it because it is high
in cholesterol and often contains high concentrations
of hormones and preservatives.

The third and smallest group of vegetarians cite
environmental reasons for not consuming meat. They complain
that consumption of meat causes farmers to continually
deforest land to create grazing land for cattle.

In addition to these three major groups, there are a number
of other smaller groups of vegetarians who stopped eating
meat for entirely different reasons.

Gilbert happy to know that the article is helpful to you.

It is good to be Vegetarian but there are also some good health benefits of Non-vegetarian foods which are essential for better health. So it good that you take Non-veg food once or twice in the week but not daily.

there are reasons why red or yellow paprika tastes better than green paprika. most vegetables are green, at least the ones I can afford, and therefore not so appetising. ironically, the green stuff is supposed to be the healthiest. only if I knew how to prepare them so they would taste as good as even simply boiled salted meat, I would eat them everyday. Respect to all those vegeterians and aspirants!

I am non veg. Non veg mainly contains protein which is very useful for making our body strong. Minerals keeps you fit. 

I think this happened mainly because of the trend. Isn't it? Some are doing just because they hate animal violence and some are thinking it is one way of becoming healthy and to gain beauty. But personally for me it's so hard to be a vegetarian.  I have tried but I am failed.

thinker, what do you think was your reason for the failure as a vegetarian?
