i'm sure this has been mentioned a lot here. but i've recently decided to become a vegetarian & would really like to learn more about. the thing is that i can't find a good website that will give me the information i want (i have bad eyes -_-). does anyone mind giving me a url to one? & it would be great to get advice from others out there who're vegetarian too.

& also, when i say recently i mean like 2 days ago. nobody's taking me seriously or thinks i'll last >:l i didn't expect less anyway, i just wish they'd shove their faces down the drain cause the bashing is pissing me off.

Well, protein is the big one from meat, but we can get that from other places; vegetables and vitamins alike. Unfortunately, meat comes with a whole lot of bad stuff like saturated fat with those vitamins we need, and vegetables, fruits, etc. lean a lot more toward the healthier side.

People also do it because they're against the killing or eating of animals. This could be religoiusly (i.e. Hindus do not eat steak) or ethically motivated, or both.
