I really wish I could be vegetarian, for both ecological and religious reasons. Not to mention that meat just grosses me out a bit. But sadly, I'm allergic to every non-meat source of protein except eggs -- soy, milk, nuts, beans, most seeds and grains. The best compromise I've been able to find is to insist on humanely raised meat, grass-fed and organic when possible.
