Do people that say they want to be a vegetarian, but cant annoy you?

How many times has someone told you "I want to be vegetarian but I just can't"? Their reasoning is that there is too much meat around them, they can't stop eating meat, or meat just tastes too good. But they think that being a vegetarian is the right thing to do.



That makes me sick!! How can you sit there KNOWING that going veg is the right thing to do, and just not do it?Do people that say they want to be a vegetarian, but cant annoy you?
Yes, it does annoy me. If they really want to be vegetarian and really care about animals and the planet they will stop eating meat. Simple as that. I live in Kansas where most people live on meat and potatoes and there are no vegetarian restaurants. If I can do it I think anyone can do it.



I think the best way to deal with these people is to show that you care and offer suggestions to make it easier for them to be vegetarian. Say something like "I used to feel that way too, but once I learned more about how harmful the meat industry is to the environment, how it contributes to world hunger, and how disgusting and cruel factory farms are, I decided I could not contribute to that no matter what". And tell them how much better you feel, how fun it is to find new vegetarian dishes, whatever.



Our society tries to make being vegetarian seem weird or difficult so its easy to see why it is hard for some people to understand. It is up to the rest of us to help them see the way.
Your food doesn't have vocal chords. Otherwise, u best pray those poor potatoes rest in peace.

No. Do people who dream of becoming astronauts, basketball players, singers etc but can't annoy you?



For a bunch of people constantly proclaiming their "compassion" , " tolerance"and "understanding" you seem to be annoyed at the most trivial of things most of which has nothing to do with you to begin with
You come off like someone that probably tells people they are evil for eating meat. Maybe they know you are really judgmental about it and are trying to appease you.



It's none of you're business what other people eat, you can get some therapy for your "sickness' if you need to.Do people that say they want to be a vegetarian, but cant annoy you?
They aren't committed to the cause. I hate that! I used to be one of those people but when I really tried it wasn't hard. They just aren't willing to give up meat, it makes me think they want to be vegetarians for attention, not because they care. If they did care then they would have no problem following through.
I just started being vegetarian. I empathize with those people who think they can't ignore the meat staring them in the face while they're stuck eating tofu, but if they really wanted to do it, they could. It just depends on how much it means to them.
Hmm.. Most people I know that think that is the right thing to do do it. I've never known someone who said " I can't kill a cow to feed myself" and then still eat meat..
What is annoying is that they say that they "can't" when what they really mean is that they don't want to.
Judgmental much?



I'd recommend that you just accept that different people make different choices and that there is no right or wrong in the real world.
yes . they are only trying to sound cool . they obviously don't want to go vegetarian ; or else they would .
Cause its almost like an addiction to some, they just cant get over it.
I just always correct them with

"You COULD if you wanted to, actually."
Honestly they just lack the will power.
YES!!!!!!!!!! They could if they want to.
A little. If they really wanted to, they could. It's not difficult.
Not as much as actual vegetarians, all proud and ****. You are an omnivore!!! There's a reason some ppl can't quit the meat. It tastes great, is nutritious, and is completely natural for us to eat. Stop being annoyed at our inabilities to stifle instinct. We're only animals, after all.
