Yes, that's true, Us plants use our leaves to take in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen so you humans can also breathe.

Actually, that's not correct.

Plant respiration involves taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide, exactly the same as human respiration.

However, plants also carry out photosynthesis, an activity entirely unrelated to their respiration (and more closely related to food production) in which they take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

In bright light, they will produce more oxygen than they use.  At night, they produce no oxygen but still use it.

Re: Vegetarians unite!

Bacon is not food. It's a privilege. If no one has eaten bacon, then they are missing out on life. *light shines down on plate of bacon, with angelic music playing*

Tofu isn't flavorless the way I eat it  big_smile  I put soy sauce on it, it's good. With my dad's fried rice, it's delicious. I could go vegetarian if I wanted to, though I don't want to  tongue

Re: Vegetarians unite!

We are designed to eat both veggies and meat. It's not all that healthy to be a vegetarian, you don't get enough protein, which you need. Plus, it's already dead. They were going to kill it anyway, so you might as well make use of it's death and eat it.

Yup. Too bad we aren't like natives and use every single part of the animal

Re: Vegetarians unite!

i couldnt live without meat, definately a carnivorous being, though some of my favourite dishes contain no meat whatsoever, i find a good balance is good.  it would be too difficult for me to become a vegetarian.  i should try some time though, just to see if i can  big_smile

Every human has eaten meat in their life
Therefore we are all omnivores

Re: Vegetarians unite!

Being vegetarian isn't too unhealthy. You can get your proteins from eating beans, lentils, nuts, etc. There are lots of asian foods (I'm asian so I know) that have lentils in them.

Re: Vegetarians unite!

I'm an extreme veagan. Anything that used to move I can't eat. If a piece of tofu even remotely looks like it has 2 eyes and a nose, I won't eat it. If a piece of soy bread is shaped like some animal I won't eat it. If this piece of paper-like bread that I sometimes eat has a picture of something that could have a face (for example, a picture of some eggs) I won't eat it.

Yes, but the less people who eat meat, the less animals they have to kill. If 11,000,000 people out of 12,000,000 people ate chicken, they wouldn't kill 12,000,000 chickens. It's based on the market.

Re: Vegetarians unite!

But what would happen to all the cows and chickens if nobody wanted to eat them?  Nobody would want to pay to look after them, and they couldn't be let loose in the wild without causing an ecological disaster.

I don't think so, because chickens still give us eggs, cows give us milk, sheep give us wool, etc.

To give us milk, cows have to have calves.  What would we do with all those baby cows... those delicious, nutritious, baby cows... if nobody was eating them?
