Are we Carnivores? Are we Herbivores? Are we Omnivores?

That's one of those questions that will never be answered, I'm afraid. Scientists have tried, and you will hear good arguments on all sides.

I tried the vegetarian thing for three months. Ultimately, the craving for meat won the battle. It's interesting though, I've hated veggies my whole life. Once I made them my only diet, I not only started to enjoy them, I started eating new veggies as well.

After I fell off the veggie wagon, my see more taste for those veggies dwindled again. One could argue that the reason for aquiring a new found taste for veggies, was because we are meant to eat them. Others could argue that you acquire a taste for whatever you eat the most at a given time.

Yes, we do spice the hell out of meat, just to make it edible. But I'm not sure that makes a great argument as to why we should be eating veggies. I could use those same spices to try and make my salad taste better too. It won't work though. The fact is, that we spice the hell out of everything we eat. It gives us new dishes, and new found flavors. Our taste buds are always on the hunt for new goodies.

What we should really be deciding is not whether or not we eat veggies or meat, but what we put in our bodies in general. Is the meat we are eating injected with hormones? What do they feed the cattle that we are eating? Are the veggies we are eating sprayed with pesticides? Is the soybeans I'm eating genetically modified, in order to resist the pesticides?

hmmmmmmm.....
