I've never put this much thought into my diet, I mean to be honest I just eat the things that I think taste nice, some of it is meat, some fruit some fish some nuts some veggies (very few though).

I guess I am just an equal opportunity eater and don't discriminate with regard to my food based on where it came from or how it came to be in my mouth.

We can taste the difference immediately and it is extremely unpleasant. I had a tiny slice of pepperoni that got onto my cheese pizza somehow, and I could taste it right away. It tasted like blood and left a horrible aftertaste in my mouth. Plus it's really hard to um, not taste HAM between cucumber and lettuce, genius. Not only that, it's a dick move to make, you could make that person sick.

I could see that. I'm sure the pepperoni was all processed and chemically too. The worst thing I ever ate while stoned was a double cheeseburger from Burger King. It just tasted like chemicals. Well...actually the worst thing I ever ate while stoned was a plate of Kraft shredded cheese that I microwaved and just ate because I had nothing at all that qualified as food other than a bag of three cheese blend. *shudders*

perhaps it's a case to case basis. perhaps some vegetarians won't notice it and most probably would like the taste without them even knowing.

are you going to go around and try to convince vegetarians to eat meat by doing sneaky crap like that?

no. it's a hypothetical opinion that may or may not be agreed.

I can believe this. For example, I am a non-smoker, and I live in a non-smoking home with someone who smokes outside. Sometimes they'll bring me a drink that they sipped from, and I can smell the smoke on the rim of the cup and it repulses me.

I can completely believe that the same experience occurs with meat to a vegetarian.
