Vegetarians, how long have you been veggie and what made you decide you wanted to be veggie?

Have been a Vegetarian for
many many years. I eat fish but no meat.
My teeth are not sharp fangs to eat meat with.
Just an understanding that eating animals was not right.
Echoing Hunkalove, The animals are full of fear when slaughtered
and that fear is within the body of the animal that is eaten.
Not good for good health and happy disposition.
