I agree, I hate when vego's give the whole lecture on eating meat on a non-vego, it gives us a bad rep. I'd rather eat a steak than be associated with vego's like that. I can quite easily sit at a table and eat my dinner with non vegetarians and remain un-phased.
Some things have me bagging, there is something about the smell of pork products that I find hard to stomach, I don't quite know what it is. And things like chicken skin, and ribs. That's just me being a little squeamish because I've been alone for 5 years and aren't so used to these things anymore.

That would explain why I have been stuck into a lot, people are big meat eaters here in Australia. In remote areas you're going to be even more subject to it, the Prairie Hotel for example is on the edge of the outback, they serve up every critter under the sun- emu, goat, kangaroo, beef, camel- you won't find anything vegetarian there!
