If I were just now thinking about the ethical implications of my diet, I would probably take the path you are taking. I have thought about reintroducing a small amount of meat into my diet, especially at restaurants, but I am so happy with my overall health and well-being, which I attribute in part to my diet, that I am reluctant to change.<br /><br />Interestingly, I started out eating a lot of fish and have gradually transitioned to a nearly fish-free lifestyle, in part because I am confused and skeptical about what kinds of fish are sustainably raised and whether farmed or wild fish are really better. I think it takes more effort to do the research to figure out what meat and seafood is ethical and sustainable than just eliminate it, so kudos to you for doing the work while I take the easy way out!<br /><br />Thank you for a thought-provoking post and for letting me hijack your comments section with my own personal ramblings.Evelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08903667625039887922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835235152470153988.post-2915211066910861922010-03-23T21:44:07.246-05:002010-03-23T21:44:07.246-05:00Very thoughtful and informative post.

That stuff isn't cheap the way chicken or ground beef is. And for me at this point, it's not about not ever eating meat because I'm eating an animal but making sure that that creature had a life and ethical death.<br /><br />On a practical level, it would be extremely difficult to eat at many restaurants here if I wasn't at least flexible with regard to fish.Kirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02308984027153767244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835235152470153988.post-29036995526931207652010-03-23T08:15:35.022-05:002010-03-23T08:15:35.022-05:00I really appreciate this post.

I'm sure we've talked about how fish give me the creeps (they're so old!), but do you think of them differently from animals? I'm not arguing one way or the other, I'm just interested in your opinion.SoundsLikeCanadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04782621124047305910noreply@blogger.com
