For me it's like this:

I'm a vegetarian because I believe that animals shouldn't be treated horribly because they can be. However if I -needed- meat to survive then I'd eat it. The fact is that I can live without it so I do.

But if I was on an island with no eatable plants or something then hell yeah I'd kill a fish and eat it.

I'm terrible at expressing myself but basically I choose not to eat meat; that doesn't make me better or worst than someone who does eat it.

It's not that we don't have food (I'm at Agriculture major, and we have a global issues class that deals with hunger repetitively...), there is actually a surplus and much of it goes wasted every day. The problem is, food is not always so easily accesible to the people who need it most. This can be because of politics, regional bariers, food costs, or many other important factors.

Your tongue at the beginning still makes me laugh. Why has my standard of humour not increased in over 4 years?

@MakeEasyonYourself Chickens actually don't have to be fed in the summer if they're free range

It would actually be better if people didn't eat meat period, it would feed those who died from starvation this year twenty times over and would free up 2/3 of the land currently used for agricultural means.

I'm pretty sure that overconsumption of meat is a CAUSE of world hunger; like meat-animals consume more edible food in grains and such than they put out as meat. That's why I'm a vegetarian, among other reasons: because meat production is wasteful.

As Hank Green said, "Vegetarianism isn't about saving cute animals, it's about saving the world."

Thumbs up if, if you found a way to eliminate grumpy videos, but it required unfriendly to frezned methods, would you do it?

I wish I could like my own comment.

Hahaha I totally thought this would be you preaching against animal abuse... Not that I'm for animal abuse, but I'm quite selfish and I'd rather have a happy me than a happy chicken.

I like you less now that I've watched this clip, its tainted my view of you, cant enjoy your clips anymore

[slamslamohhawtdamn]

I'd like to become a vegetarian but I love chicken too much. :/ and also I hardly eat any vegetables..

[khillertubes]

we could easily feed everyone in the world without harmful pesticides and fertilizers or mistreating animals. People need to stop being greedy and wasteful. People should a get max of 10% of their calories from animals. People need to stop feeling entitled to eat animals. People need to eat healthy food and not get fat on rubbish food. Everyone needs to stop breeding like bacteria! BTW I'm not vegetarian, but I'm against animal abuse, over consumption and entitlement.
