Its so bizarre to see someone disgusted by chicken... I'm well aware of the conditions many chickens go through to get on our plates, but its still mouth water to see it on my plate.

Recently though I've had a growing interest in vegetarianism though, might give it a go. Veganism seems a bit to extreme IMO though, I couldn't get away with it.

That kinda sounds like a radical exaggeration of the so called "daily minimum".
