As someone who was experimentally a "vegetarian" for 3 years, I would have to say this post makes a lot of great points. I learned a lot of these things while being vegetarian, but also some great reasons to be vegetarian as well. In the end I just didn't see the use and I slowly made the switch back to eating meat. I will say the health benefits of "not eating meat" are extremely overstated. You definitely can have a decent diet, with or without eating meat.
