A few weeks ago, I made a decision to go vegetarian. OK, I'm not a full blown vegisaurus. I still eat chicken and fish; sorry but I can't emphasise with either of them two. But no more mammals, I just can't deal with eating a animal that can suffer pain, anxiety, stress and fear.
For those who know me this may be a shock, but I strongly believe you judge a man by his compassion to those who are vulnerable. I count animals in that compassion.

I see it as my duty to vanquish as many grapes as possible.
It's a moral duty ?

Yaz is the same - a " pretend veggie". Works for her No ethical reason, just her choice.
Not something I'll ever consider as I enjoy the food I like far too much. That (and beer - especially Craft at the moment) is why I train hard - so I can eat and drink with impunity! Lol
It can be awkward for Yaz sometimes when the menu is restrictive (especially when she is in certain countries with BA/crew) but she gets by. She has in the past had problems with iron deficiency due to lack of red meat in her diet, but it's not a constant issue for her.
This kind of statement (I hear it a lot, so this is a general comment) does make me chuckle though ...

Won't eat them, but will wear them ... Leather shoes, belts, coats, handbags, the list goes on.

I just couldn't do it the thought of never tasting a medium rare fillet steak again just doesn't compute and I love chicken in all its forms. Don't get me wrongbinlike veg but not enough just to eat purely veg.

I ought to try it, but the "veggie option" would kill me.
All the gear, No idea.
Too many to remember
