What will you do if no animals were left in the world except for humans. Insects are in abundance vegetables fruits are more than enough for 2 worlds to consume. what will you be then insect eater, vegie vegetarian or an omnivore that you truly are and devour protein rich insects as well as nutritious and fibery veggies and fruits? You decide....

I think so too since i just finished my almost 2 weeks vegetarian journey i think eating veggies is great for the body right now i don't feel bloated. I feel light but the craving for meat stuff is too strong for me, but since i think my veggie experiment was super effective i'll limit my meat consumption to just lunch or if i can, maybe every other day.

It will be really hard for me But with these two options. I guess I would have to resort into eating veggies and fruits. I won't dare eat an isect! I might get some disease or allergies on them. Since veggies and fruits are really healthy then I think most people will choose that too.

Oh okay, except human meat.. i would say i would turn myself into a vegetarian.. hehe not cannibal! :D wohooo A topic just in time as i have watched the cannibals show on discovery channel last weekend where cannibalism existed in the world for thousands of years already. of course for the modern man, resorting to such is an act of survival. but since you asked only if there are no meat, then vegetarian is an option. i won't mind eating veggie meat. tofu is a good source of protein too!

Really, good timing i guess, anyway a lot of us have different perspective on how we might change our diet when that day comes but according to most of the people whom answered here no one answered bugs so I guess no exotic foods then.

I am not actually a meat lover. I only eat meat just to fill in my protein need. Therefore, I don't really mind if that day will come.

I would eat lots of fruit and vegetables instead meat. I am not a vegetarian and I eat meat sometimes, but it wouldn't be a big problem for me to live without meat, because I love vegetables and pretty often my dinner consists of vegetables and bread. If there was no meat I would just have to eat that way every day, I would probably miss meat every once in while, but I can live without it. I don't like the idea of eating insects. I know that there are some parts of the world where people eat insects and find them delicious, but I don't think that I could learn to enjoy them.

I guess your right since your lifestyle is that way but hey to each is his own right, me too if it were the only option i'd eat only meat. Although maybe i'll try to get the flavor of meat by cheating the meals i don't know yet how too but i think i'll try to master making veggies taste like meat.

I would have no choice but to become a cannibal. Now to figure out what kind of people are most yummy. Doing my part to avoide over-population!

I'd hate the day when this happens... Without chicken or meat life's nothing... I'll probably live veggie for some time and that'll take my life soon... LoL...

Mr Pearl i agree that life would suck but maybe we can settle for bugs but that is just a suggestion anyway i hope that day won't come and for the looks of it it won't. Thank goodness.

Well, I must have to do something in order to survive. I have many choices left if that's the case, for in the first place, there are a lot of insects that are edible around especially here in my country, Philippines. they are nutritious somehow :)

What a wonderful idea! I'm a 100% raw fooder now too - so we can be ditchin' the kitchen as well! There are also seeds, nuts, grains, legumes, herbs, sprouts & so much more available! And because the animals would be gone, there'd be much more space to grow more good stuff to eat. The earth would replenish itself, stabalize its weather patterns, global warming will end, as will natural disasters & the earth will be a paradise like we could never imagine! Be prepared! Be very prepared!

I am a vegetarian now, so I would have no problem eating fruits and veggies. Breads are wonderful and are made from grains. Many beans and nuts are an awesome source of protein. Also, many of the vegetarian meat substitutes are very delicious. There are many that are not as well, but some taste like the real thing! Morningstar bacon is great, as are all the Quorn brand chicken products.

I do noting I eat the same what I eat now, think more fruit as vegetables. Proteins you can find in vegetables and fruis as well, also in sperm. BTW insects are meat too.

I thought this was going to turn into a question of- if you want t eat fellow people and be a cannibal...good thing it didn't cause I would never ever think f doing that. I'd be an omnivore because I could never live on veggies alone..

Hello deodavid, I am already a vegetarian so it won't be a problem for me.But i feel if it happens then the population of man eaters will increase and we will daily read a news of a person eating a human being.

I am not a meat lover, and I eat fruits and vegetables more than meat. But I'm not vegetarian. And I easily get tired of eating the same food over and over again. So eating vegetables and fruits everyday is going to be hard for me. So what I will do is.... hhmmm. I guess I really have no choice but to eat anything that is available lol .

Well that doesn't mean that we no longer have the energy not to plant fruits and veggies for our day to day consumption right? We shouldn't worry about the abundance cause as long as we are physically fit, we can look and do something for our needs. I have no problems of being vegan though so I won't worry too much. :) Have a great day!
