Do you sometimes feel guilty eating meat, if so, why?

I could never be a vegetarian or a vegan. I wish I could shiver in disgust the way they do at a steak or burger but I don't.
Bacon and egg.
Sirloin steak.
Roast chicken.
I don't even care if it is plain and without sauce or gravy.

P.S. I think it was a draw between swirlie and CULTure? I ended up blowing the pea out of my whistle.

YES
I’ve decided I am going to seriously try and change that, but I’m having to slowly phase things out. It’s too hard to quit everything in a day.

@BananaBrown It's probably best to do things gradually and get used to cooking differently, although there are meat substitutes. I have tried them but don't like them personally. Especially the bacon!

@CastorTroy I’ve always eaten meat. Growing up, a meal wasn’t a meal unless there was meat included. I love the taste, and I would never talk down to someone for choosing to eat it. For me personally, I am bothered by the idea of killing and eating something that has feeling, community, memory, etc. We didn’t used to know that was true, but now we do.
There are a lot of really tasty dishes that don’t include meat, but it takes awhile to adjust old habits. I’ll get there. 🙂
