Why live like a vegetarian? Most foods cost less than those made with meat. You reduce your environmental footprint by using less fossil fuels, water and decrease grain production. Meat typically contains about 14% more pesticides than plant foods which can lead to disease. It's also nice to respect nature since most Americans consume around 24 animals a year.
