Modern times are the times of fashion. Fashion for healthy eating, fashion for physical activity, fashion for being on the Internet ... Everything changes and our habits change. One such style, eating habit, is vegetarianism. Are vegetarian people driven by their love of animals, or is it a fashion to be vege? 

Vegetarianism

Until recently, excluding meat from the diet and talking about it out loud was something strange for many people. Today? Today it is completely normal not to eat meat, including seafood and fish. Moreover, it is becoming more and more popular. People also give up on animal-like products such as eggs, milk, cheese, lard. You can become a vegetarian for religious, ethical, health and even economic reasons. This lifestyle is not an invention of modern man, because its origins date back to the XNUMXnd millennium BC. In Europe vegetarianism appeared a little later, and the first famous vegetarian was Leonardo da Vinci.

Eating meat will lead to famine

Well, you can see and hear more and more often that vegetarians are not only people who have chosen a life without meat. These are often people who even persuade others to give up consuming this product under many pretexts. One is saying that eating meat will lead to famine. Why? When raising pigs, it requires agricultural resources, pastures, which, for example, could be used for the plantation of grains or other plants that could be eaten by humans. In addition, we feed cattle or pigs with plants that, according to vegetarians, can be consumed by humans. This thinking and this myth is simply untrue. For one and good reason, writes Dr. Stephen Byrnes "Two-thirds of our land is unfit for cultivation." 

Vege business

Nowadays, being a vegetarian is not always related to health, religious or ethical reasons, but is often simply a fashion. We see a lot of vegetarian products around us, which are no longer as expensive and unavailable as they were in the beginning. Organic products are becoming more and more fashionable, followed by vege products. Vege business is growing more and more. You can meet them on the streets of many large European cities more and more places, where the customer will not find a dish with meat on the menu.

Everyone lives as they please

Today's times are becoming very diverse. We have thousands of cultures, different skin colors, different sexual orientations, different styles of dress, and hundreds of kinds of languages ​​around us. It all shows us how much nature itself separates us. That is why diversity is part of our lives. Acceptance of others is a valued value. Not imposing your opinion on others is a quality of wisdom. Therefore, everyone should be able to live as they want.
