milk, veal calves taken away from their mothers, and crying out in the
dark confined to crates, later to have their throats cut vegetarian.
4. The now we don’t want to offend anybody, it’s really their choice
vegetarian.

stock cubes, and then kill the hens when they are no longer laying
vegetarian.

animal out of the shell, and dredge them out of the dying ocean with big
nets until they suffocate, and the oceans are completely devoid of life
vegetarian.
7. The Arnott’s biscuit, animal fat that sticks to the roof of your
mouth vegetarian.
8. The now it’s no use upsetting everyone or you’ll never get your
message across, because everyone has their own opinion, and we should
respect that compromising vegetarian.

already dead, it’s not my fault and it would have been killed anyway
vegetarian.
10. The meat-eating vegetarian who uses cruelty-free cosmetics.
11. The gelatin in the iceblock and mixed lollies, I enjoy sucking on
horse and cow’s hoofs, combined with sugar and chemicals vegetarian.

skin car seat covers in the winter months, vegetarian.

flavouring in the potato chip packet vegetarian.
14. The pet lover who feeds their animal native wildlife in a can
vegetarian.
15. The now it doesn’t help to yell at anybody, or show them gruesome
pictures of animals being killed in slaughterhouses, or they’ll never
become vegetarian vegetarian.

their hives) in the museli bar, or wholemeal healthfood shop cookie and
carob bar, vegetarian.

killing all the native animals, dairy, wool and beef industry
supporting, little bit of leather around my neck hippie vegetarian.

I got to sit on an animal liberation committee and voice my views
vegetarian.
19. The ethics committee, some animal experiments are necessary, little
toy placed in the animals cage at the vivisection laboratory,

long as the sheep is shorn and killed with compassion, during drought

mothers, who have tried to hide them in the straw, vegetarian
22. The free range egg, chicken, cow, sheep and pig, at least they are
humanely murdered vegetarian.

battered shark and chiko roll filled with slaughterhouse floor scraps,
vegetarian.
24. The let’s lobby McDonalds to cook a vegie burger, and support them
chopping down the Amazon rainforest, brutally slaughtering billions of
animals worldwide and destroying the health of people with their
unhealthy food, because at least that’s a step in the right direction
for them, vegetarian.

hotplate for the vegie burgers as the cow carcass burgers, in the
milkbar cross contamination, vegetarian.
26. The I don’t know if there’s chicken’s egg or cow’s milk in that
cake, but I’ll eat it anyway vegetarian.
27. The I don’t care about animals but I do it for my health, and if it

objection to that, even if I had to kill them with my bare hands down in
the backyard or bite the heads off them myself, vegetarian.
28. The indigenous people I apologise to the animal, the more endangered
the bigger the prayer, before I stab it to death as it kicks and cries
out in agony, obviously not understanding what I was saying, vegetarian.
29. The ethical transportation, bigger cages for the chickens, the
pre-stunning of cattle, a scratch on the back for the pigs at the free
range farm, before they are brutally murdered in slaughterhouses
vegetarian. 
30. The I like meat because of the taste of it, but I don’t eat much
meat nowadays, because I’m largely a vegetarian, vegetarian.
