i believe i'm inadvertantly becoming....

[SHATOUSHKA]

vegetarian....

er... without all the gay vegetarian hostility


but seriously, i'm not kidding.


i've already mentioned a few times (on other
boards as well) that i have serious issues
regarding beef products and as of late,
for several months now, i've already started
developing some serious issues with chicken.

yes... this vegetarianism has little to do
with factories, animal welfare, hormones,
etc... and has EVERYTHING to do with my
mental complexes about these foods that
have slowly started to become a neurosis
for me.

whats weird is... i don't mind foods being
cooked in/with meat products... hell, i
HOPE they are... but for some reason, i just
can't seem to actually put the meat into
my mouth (again, its a mental neurosis).

when this all began many years ago, i had
no idea that it would seep into my poultry
loving food intake... but, it has. i never
really considered posting about it until
the other night i was eating something with
chicken in it... and as per usual, i began
to remove the chicken from the dish.

its true... i do this. i just see the chicken
in the food and it just turns my stomach
to imagine actually eating it. i would
go into more detail as to why this is...
but i seriously don't want to get sick
while typing. so just take my word for it.

(this is even happening when i think i want eggs)

anyways... i have been piling my meat
product up on the side of my plate for
several months now...

last week when i went grocery shopping...
i honestly couldn't stop off at the usual
meat department because the thought of
preparing anything involving meat just
turned me off.


i don't give a shit about people who eat
meat. i'm not going to go all postal or
hypocritical on people that love their
animal flesh... hell, i wish i could eat
it myself. i love good fried chicken.
and lets face it, i'm not even saying that
i will pass up the chance to eat some
fried chicken if the mood hits.

but what i am saying is.... the neurosis
is really hitting it. i imagine that pretty
soon, it will have dug so deep that i
won't be able to have it at all.


there you go... more shatzy news

a girl can only hope.... but its highly unlikely.

besides, it's not that kind of complex. i suppose
a relational idea would be similar to the reason
many people do/will not eat liver... or any organ
for that matter. it's just some psychological,
visual thing that goes on in my head when i think
about it (while it's in front of me). it's also
been going on for a long time.

ugh please... i need to stop thinking about it

Liver....... [img]graemlins/gulp.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img] [img]eek.gif[/img]

[stingger]

No one seems to like liver ... except me and my nephew [img]smile.gif[/img]

Some things we have here go way back to Ye Olde
England, but many other things are seeming to drop by the wayside in favour of "fries & burger"

some things are Black Pudding, Pigs trotters, tripe & onions, steak & kidney pie/pudding.

we're getting crocodile meat in at work.. [img]eek.gif[/img]

me n johnny (dude i work with) were hanging shit on this dude (not to his face) that he was a crocodile hunter because of his hat and clothes.. turned out he was crocodile hunter.

Hmmm, odd. I've been seeing the same behaviour with my flatmate, whom will shove most of his meat to the side of his plate when eating. The only exceptions in his case: well-prepared poultry. Wonder if he's gonna cut back on that too.

i'm glad to see that i'm not crazy. lol....

there is a particular mexican restaurant in little
rock that i just ADORE... and every time i go
there i order the same thing -- chicken quesadillas

and every time i get it, i will take the time to
carefully remove all the chicken content from
them prior to eating.

this has happened the last several times i've
gone there... and let me tell you, i don't go
there a lot, so its been happening for at least
a year.

i almost feel strange about ordering it because
i remember the last time i did go there and i
was piling up the chicken on the side of my
plate, i felt the waitress gave me an odd look...
as if she wanted to say, "we do have veggie
quesadillas you know"... but its not that i want
the veggie version. i WANT the chicken ones...
er... and i don't mind peeling out the chicken.

it kinda makes me feel somewhat guilty. perhaps
because it appears as if i'm being wasteful.
and hell, i am... i know i am. but i just can't
bear to eat it with the chicken inside.

and as for veggies with animal urine... hahahaha...
that really doesn't bother me. its actually the
thought that i'm eating animal parts that just
freak me out.
