I am 17, still live at home, rely on my mom to make most of my meals, and won’t be going to college until the fall. My father is a diabetic and can’t eat carbs as much as i can, and complains if there isn’t meat at every meal. My mom doesn’t think a vegetarian diet is healthy, and i am a mediocre cook at best. We have meat with dinner every night, and I have been eating around it or just avoiding it, but this won’t last for long.

I’m not for nor against vegetarians or vegans. I have heard plenty of vegetarians preach over and over again the many reasons why vegetarian or veagan is better, and I’ve heard them out. Now I want to know some fact on how it can be bad, healthwise and economically. Thanks!
