10 dumbest things the humble vegetarians do not want to hear

Turning into a vegetarian is a mere choice, and those who make this transformation are as happy as the ones who eat meat. While by being a vegetarian we are mostly doing a big favour to Mother Nature, our fellow non vegetarian friends do not leave even one chance of taking a dig at us. We bring you 10 things that we vegetarians are literally tired of hearing.

Do you only eat Salad? Well, the answer is no. There are way too many options for us and no we don’t eat your potential meat’s food as well.

How do you get the protein? Umm, have you ever heard of legumes and cereals or may be dried nuts and fruits? They all have protein FYI.

Do you eat nothing except vegetables? The answer here is, do you only eat meat. There is much more than just vegetables. Soya nuggets for example.

Does that mean you can’t wear leather? Vegetarians choose to not eat meat and are happy about the choices they make.

Can’t you drink milk too? You should go check the dictionary, you heard vegetarian and not vegan. Vegetarians do drink milk, eat cheese, yoghurt and butter, vegans don’t.

How do you live without meat? Oh I am just fine without meat. You need food to survive and the foods we vegetarians eat helps us live quite longer.

Can I eat meat in front of you? Obviously you can. It’s not like I will throw up if you eat meat in front of me and obviously I won’t get tempted while you satiate your hunger.

You can eat fish, can’t you? I am a vegetarian and not a pescetarian (Yes it’s the term used for people who eat fish). So, the answer is no I can’t eat fish.

Do you feel weak all the time? I eat salads, greens, tofu/cottage cheese, milk, lentils and so much more. So, no I feel pretty strong and my punch feels even stronger.

Aren’t you killing plants? Well, don’t you eat the greens and the meat both? So you are practically a serial killer right? Are you seriously that dumb?
