Anybody else not eat veal for moral reasons?

[Blondie]

I haven't eaten red meat in over 10 years now, and veal for even longer. I choose not to eat red meat for health reasons as well as compassion reasons. Once I gave up red meat, all of my IBS symptoms disappeared!

Veal is definitely for compassion reasons.

I rarely eat chicken or turkey anymore. I'm just not into meat. I don't eat eggs either unless they are part of a recipe as in a cake or cookie batter.

Eggs? Commercially bought eggs aren't fertilized. They would never grow up to be chickens or roosters.

my thoughts exactly and no i don't eat cavair but that's mostly because i don't like it.

i also don't eat fish i know to be heavily overfished - shark, swordfish, sea bass et. al.

So what happens to the animal that is true for veal, but ins't true for other meats?

Are you and I agreeing on something?

Not sure why you felt that comment was necessary.

No. I'm not against eating veal. It's no different than eating chickens, tuna, salmon, cows, to me. I don't eat it very often, but I will eat it.

Sorry Cardaway....I thought I was being nice. We usually don't agree and we've had some harsh words. We agreed on something and I guess I was trying to point out that with all we disagree on, there are some area's we do actually share some common ground on. Sorry I offended you.

It's probably been a good twenty years since I last had veal. I have moral issues with it. I try to buy free range meat and poultry as much as possible as well.

I just really want to make sure that Cardaway see's my apology.
