I've been a vegetarian since 1983. I don't miss meat at all.
That's great! Did you become a vegetarian for health related, environmental, political or personal reasons?
All of the above :) I used to live near an abattoir and could hear the sound of the cows lowing as they waited to be slaughtered. It was awful.
Ugh, those poor animals. That would be horrible to hear. Are you an ovo or lacto vegetarian? 
Ovo. I would prefer not to eat eggs, but I do at the moment. I always buy organic cage-free eggs. At least the hens are outside and living a semi-normal life.
That's a great way to look at it! Since you're an ovo-vegetarian, you don't consume dairy products? Do you find that difficult?
Not at all. Almond milk is a great substitute for cow's milk and I don't miss cheese, either! There's so much you can do without using dairy products.
That's a very good point! Have you noticed a lot of cakes, cookies, candies and chocolates which contain unfamiliar animal ingredients? You must read labels very carefully!
Every label gets read! Thankfully, I'm not big on sweet stuff, so don't buy cakes etc. If I fancy something like that, I make my own.
Smart thinking! Have you ever thought of becoming a vegan? I've heard they avoid all animal products like beeswax, silk clothing and leather.
