Vegetarianism, taking the plunge A long time ago every dinner was beef, every lunch was chicken, and every breakfast was bacon. It was the way things were, and there was nothing the household teenager could do about it. Their parents bought the food, and they were required to eat it, no matter how much they grimaced at the sight of brussel sprouts or beef. Nowadays, teens have choices.
Vegetarianism is no longer a radical, unconventional thing to do.
Many teens are choosing to eliminate meat from their diets because of choice. It's nice to know that we have a choice. As a vegetarian myself, I am very happy to be starting a page on something that affects me every day. People ask why I choose to isolate my mouth from meat, they wonder why I don't take the turkey at Thanksgiving, and some even start conversations with me about why they too choose not to eat meat. Teens everywhere are becoming vegetarians.
