    So I was at an event and I couldn’t eat most of the food because I’m a vegan. Well this guy ask me why i became one and i told him. So this other guy who so happened to be listening to our convo said ” The way I see it vegetarians won’t live as long as the rest of us.” the nerve of some people.

    Look at Betty White.
    She’s like a million years old and still full of energy.
    And it’s all because she’s vegan.

    what a bizarre statement. to say “the way I see it” implies an opinion, but medical and physiological facts have nothing to do with some idiot’s opinions.

    He isn’t very informed. Vegetarians and vegans tend to be a lot healthier than meat eaters.

    Hey @gurt8499,

    Well, he’s not very bright. Let him know that vegetarians and vegans live, on average, six to 10 years longer than meat-eaters! Oh, and ask him to check out http://www.meat.org.

    Tell him we have a lower risk of cancer, diabetes and other life debilitating and deathly illnesses…so he’s likely to be wrong.

    What the heck? The way *I* it is we’ll live longer. You shoulda asked him why he said that. Reminds me of a kid in my english class who thinks the world will be perfect when vegetarians have been eliminated. thats right, eliminated
