Introduction to the topic: Vegetarianism
Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=um2p4GlEbKg
A form of vegetarianism is veganism. A vegan avoids consuming or using animal products, so their diet has no meat, dairy products, eggs or even honey.
Many vegans also avoid wearing fur, leather, wool and cosmetics or chemical products tested on animals. They want a cruelty-free lifestyle.
Homework:
There are other dietary systems like fruitarianism and macrobiotics. On the Net or in an encyclopedia, find out about one of them (or choose another diet) and write a text similar to the one on veganism. Add your own opinion on these diets and comment on the scene obove from the film "Everything is illuminated."

ResponderEliminarI don't have a strong enough will to become vegetarian, I'd never be able to survive just eating vegetables.
ResponderEliminarThere are many reasons for becoming a vegetarian, first it could be that they can't digest it, environmental issues or animal rights issues. and it's their prerogative, what they want to eat. I don't care or mind it at all.
Vegetarians stand up for what they believe in, for that I must give them some credit but I don't think that vegetables can provide a replacement to the proteins on meat.
I thought that the scene from Everything is Illuminated was very funny and it perfectly shows the closed minded and discriminating people
