I look down on people who see meat as a red piece of muscle sitting on a white Styrofoam try in Costco and think nothing of it. The only way I would ever go back to eating meat would be if I were the one to raise the animal and slaughter it/catch the animal and kill it/hunt the animal. Personally, I can't justify eating an animal that serves no other purpose in live than to be pumped full of growth hormones, sit in a stall all it's life, then be killed inhumanely.
That's my opinion, if you want to bash me for it, be my guest.
You started bashing people's opinions, so take what comes back to you. The OP showed us his monster burger, and those of us who enjoy our meat looked on with longing. You assumed that it was super-processed crap pumped out of some farm-factory in Iowa, obviously not even looking at the OP's location, which clearly states he's from New Zealand, where, as we've learned, the vast majority of meat products come from humane sources. In fact, if you even look at the burger, you can see that those patties are not mass-produced disks from a factory, they're fine lumps of probably home made burger meat, or at least from a company or butchers that makes them with a bit of consideration.Commie Chipmunk wrote:

You manly man you.
You leapt to assumptions, and were wrong. You got smacked down for being a veggie after you attacked the OP for enjoying meat. Deal with it. It's not bashing you for your opinion, it's bashing back, because you bashed first. Next time you want to attack someone, make sure that you have your facts first, you'll look less stupid.
In case you weren't aware, humans are top of the food chain. Every food chain. We evolved the most lethal combination of natural weapons the planet has ever seen, and we used those tools (the human brain, opposable thumbs, leading to abstract language and advanced tool use) to exploit our ecological niche. We're omnivores, and we eat meat. So do chimpanzees, y'know. It sucks to be a cow, I imagine. Don't be the cow, people.
