Friday Fictioneers - "Crazy Carnivores"

4/29/2026

 
PicturePHOTO PROMPT © David Stewart
No one forced me to eat this way.

I chose it almost ten years ago for health reasons.

Hell, I nearly died, sucked away from this life by a nasty case of sepsis. So, I embraced vegetarianism and haven’t had an issues since.

Has it made going out to eat with my meat-loving friends and family difficult? Very much so, but I make do.

I’m not a pushy vegetarian, “Pick a place I can eat, you jerks!”

Instead, I sit, eat my bowl of veggie soup, plate of black olives and pickles, and watch them crazy carnivores go to town.

But, no doubt, they do it with a smug air of superiority

Some definitely do. Vegans are even worse.

We do like to ascribe morality as a species don't we. "I'm not eating meat for medical reasons' seems to have switched to "them crazy carnivores" pretty fast!

Good point. Though, most vegetarians (myself included) love their crazy carnivores to pieces!

Healthy food is my motto, and red meat is minimal.

Even vegetarians can eat unhealthy. All we can do is our best :)

All I could think of when I looked at the photo was heart attack.

LOL! It's a bit excessive for sure.

Dear Angela,
I understand. I'm one with dietary needs that go against the flow. People can be very inconsiderate.

Shalom,
Rochelle

Right? :) It's good to accommodating for the majority though.

We have vegetarian friends who always ask where we should go eat and I always insist they pick the place, because I don’t know where to pick that they’ll have anything to eat.
