Okay, I know this is a site about carnivores

, but I was wondering how many vegetarians are here. And if you are, when, how and why did you do it? How was the transition for you? I am giving it serious consideration for moral reasons. I really believe I wouldn't have a problem living without meat - I've never eaten a lot of it. However, I am an absolute cheese
fanatic, and I see that as a big problem for me. Oddly enough, I'm lactose intolerant, but cheese doesn't bother me. Forget milk and ice cream, but it's never been a big deal to forego those - I just take calcium daily and try to get it in other ways. I also love to bake, and how do you do that without eggs? Just wondering if anyone has any good tips/insights/stories on vegetarianism. (And in case you're wondering, no, I will not inflict this on my dogs!)
