I AM, very happily, a vegetarian and have been for quite a few years. I don’t miss meat at all, and this Christmas, like the preceding few years, had a meat substitute for my festive lunch.

I can’t wait until we all turn vegetarian. In fact Peta recommends a vegan diet. They say make 2011 the year you turn vegan. It’s not as easy as it looks.
