In India we almost have 50% of the people who are vegetarians! Some people like to have vegetarian food as well as non vegetarian food! I am one of them...who loves to have non vegetarian dishes along with vegetarian dishes! How about you? Which dish is better according to you and why?

Yes, I can understand that! That way in India we are not that voracious meat eaters like the people in Western countries, that is why we really need not worry about having red meat as we have very little at very low frequency!

@AKRao24 I enjoy my vegetables and fruits more than any non veg dishes. That is my personal choice. Husband and children call me herbivore.... Eating ghaas phus

I am not a vegetarian but I´m not a person who must have meat in her dish either. And the older I get, the less importance I give to red meat.

Yes, with the increased age our requirement of protein intake is also gets reduced! I am also not very particular about having non veg on regular basis!

@AKRao24 I didn´t eat so much chicken when I was young and was more into red meat. Now it is the opposite and many days I only cook veggies.

@LadyDuck , Yes, I agree. It is because of antibiotics and other chemicals people are afraid of using the meat from US. The red meat is also high in Cholesterol if I am not wrong?!

@AKRao24 I eat red meat time by time, not US meat because it contains hormones and antibiotics. The best source of Iron is still red meat.

when you say almost half of indians are vegetarians, is it by choice or because of their religion?

Unfortunately because of their religion they are so! Though they are suppose to have only vegetarian diet , many such people try to have non veg diet just out of curiosity which I feel is very normal thing!

They are both good but to be taken moderately. Or should I say balanced diet.
