It's funny when I notice my opinions about things have changed - I often don't notice while it's changing, but sometime much later I'll suddenly realize I'm holding the exact opposite opinion from me-of-10-years-ago.
I used to be a bit scornful of vegetarianism & veganism that was based in preventing cruelty to animals. And I used to be all like "but ... how could you not want to eat meat, which is the tastiest thing ever?"
These days I have started to buy into the whole "meat is bad for the environment" thing, as well as the "our food processing machine is too cruel to animals". (I wonder, though, whether it's just because I'm slowly being brainwashed by my environment.)
Anyway, all that is to say that now I'm intrigued by the idea of trying vegetarianism for a bit and seeing how it goes.
