Until it's time to eat.

@jlynn37 If you can live and be health and none of your fellow Earthling brothers and sisters have to be imprisoned and then killed on your behalf....why wouldn't you?

Veganism is a rapidly growing movement- from just a few million in the early 90’s to around 550–950 million* worldwide as of last year (stats via wikipedia).

"The numbers
In the U.S., four percent of men and seven percent of the women are defined as vegetarians. In India, where there are religious reasons guiding a cruelty-free diet, 31 percent of the population is considered vegetarian. In Europe, vegetarians are an estimated ten percent of the population. Worldwide, vegetarians total 375 million. ((from 2014 ---it's increased even more now five years later))

The roots of vegetarianism
Although supposedly a modern trend, vegetarianism in the West has very ancient roots. Many of the early Greek and Roman philosophers, including Plutarch, Pythagoras, Seneca and Porfirio, followed a meatless diet as a refusal of animal sacrifices to the gods and out of respect for living beings.

A cultural movement
Luminaries such as Leonardo da Vinci and Descartes were vegetarian: first, out of awareness of the suffering of animals, and second, because it was believed that a diet without meat was healthier one. However it was not until the nineteenth century, with the opening of the Vegetarian Society in Great Britain (1847) and in the USA (1850) that a true cultural movement was born. Originating in France in 1845, from the Société des Animaux Protectrice, it was already in existence in England, Holland and Bavaria."
