He thinks vegetarianism is just a "dietary choice" that only impacts the taste of the foods you eat. I was surprised by how narrow-minded his views on vegetarianism appear to be, so his song "Beans and Broccoli" is the one I dislike the most:

You're right, it isn't just a dietary choice, but he totally hit the nail on the head with some vegans being elitist bints. IT eats meat because it tastes good and I guess thats his decision.
Although I gave it up for ethical reasons and preach a bit, I don't think I'm a saint because of it. I don't think its a big deal that I don't eat meat and its not even very hard anymore. I wish less people ate meat or more people ate signifigantly less meat, but eating meat doesn't make them bad people and it doesn't give me the right to harp on them.
Beliefs aside, the song is great.
