When you think about it being vegan or vegetarian isn't really great for your body. Humans are omnivores. Made to eat meat and vegetables.

Actually, being omnivorous doesn't mean we were made to eat both, it's more like we were designed to eat either - essentially, we eat whatever the hell we can get hold of (the three sisters- corn, squash and beans- for example, provide a nutritionally complete diet)
However, that does not excuse what OP's flatmate did, it's people like that who give vegans a bad name, because
1.you can bet she won't have worked out a proper nutritious diet (and in all likelihood will in ten years time be going 'i tried to be vegan once, it's bad for you, i was malnourished' no shit sherlock, if you did it on a whim)
2. You can't impose it on other people, you can try to make them see things your way, but taking away all their food? Not the way to do that. And
3. That was just f***ing wasteful. The cow which supplied the ribs is already dead, you're already killed the next cow by creating demand for supply and at that point out of respect for the dead animal you may as well either eat it, or give it to someone who will. Wasting meat is as bad as buying it in the first place.

But a variety of foods IS healthier, so just because you CAN subsist only on non-meat doesn't mean you should. That said, a well-planned vegan diet can indeed be healthy for many people (not everyone, though.)
I have no problem with vegans and vegetarians, but the evolutionary argument always annoys me. Research supports that the reasons for being vegan/vegetarian are personal moral convictions and personal health concerns. You can't argue that people as a whole should be vegan...

Nutritionally complete is the same as healthy. If all your nutrition comes from plants you can be sure you're getting nothing but goodness, even 'fatty' fruits like avocado and banana are 100x better for you than 'fatty' meats such as bacon which have very little to offer nutrition wise. A properly planned out vegan diet is as healthy as they get.
Also, the argument can be made that everyone should be vegan based upon environmental and population concerns. Firstly, plant production is a lot less polluting (CO2, streams, loss of biodiversity bacause land is cleared for grazing etc), secondly, as the basic rule of food chains is energy is lost at each stage of consumption, (if you eat corn you get all the energy, if you eat a cow which ate the corn energy is lost, if you eat a wolf that ate the cow that ate the corn even more energy is wasted) by being primary consumers we would be able to provide food for a lot more people (which as the world's population is increasing, it would be far more sensible)

#157, you can be "nutritionally complete" if you put enough effort into anything. I'm sure you can find someone on a nutritionally complete insect diet, but if you're going for a natural "what I have access to" approach, as your definition of omnivore suggested, you'd be better off getting both.
As for environmental concerns, I counted that under moral convictions. I'm aware that that's a reason that people become vegan/vegetarian. Also, I have seen a lot of contradictory statistics about what kinds of farming are most efficient and the impacts they have on the environment, so I'm sure you can understand my hesitance to just accept your uncited statistics as fact.
There are also many arguments to be made in favor of raising various animals, though I can't think of them off the top of my head (things about topsoil, sustainability, unreliability of plants, other climate issues, etc.) I'm sure a quick Google search would show you that this isn't that simple of an issue. Not to mention the fact that farming isn't even the only way to raise/eat animals...

No, nutritionally complete literally means nutritionally complete, there is no 'better off getting everything'
Environmental concerns aren't really personal moral concerns as they effect everyone, they're more like societal moral concerns.
Anyway the point is, you said "You can't argue that people as a whole should be vegan" and i'm just proving that you can argue it. I'm not actually going to, because, firstly i can't be arsed, and second, and most importantly, i'm not vegan.
Maybe it was a poor choice of words on your part, but you really can argue it. :P

157 - "the argument can be made that everyone should be vegan based upon environmental and population concerns."
There are people in the population that will never be able to even consider being vegan due to dietary needs associated with specific illness. You can argue any point you like, but the fact is, some people really do need to eat meat/meat products.

#175 - First, exactly what #182 said. You just can't say that *everyone* should be vegetarian or vegan, because it's just not possible for everyone. I didn't misstate what I meant.
Second, you ignored my point that meat eating does not necessarily imply animal farming, therefore if you choose not to eat meat because it is associated with animal farming, that does strike me as more of a personal moral concern than a societal one. Especially if you consider the hierarchy of needs-- environmental concerns are much less important than getting proper nutrition with what's available.
And "what's available" is important to my point-- like I said, many things can be nutritionally complete if you have access to a range of them, like meat. What I said was that based on the "omnivores eat what is there and don't go out of their way for food" argument that *you* used, it is nutritionally wiser and more efficient to simply eat what is available (i.e. both meat AND vegetables) and ensure more nutritional completeness than to waste time, energy, and resources to obtain a particular combination of non-meat to make yourself nutritionally complete. I never said that nutritionally complete vegan diets were worse than nutritionally complete omnivorous diets, only that naturally, humans are more able to obtain a nutritionally complete diet through eating both than by only eating one. Does this make sense to you?

#89 what ur talkin about with meat being bad for u with the hormones and stuff I think ur talking about coming from when breeders would put medicine in the animals foods to help them stay healthy because most of the time the meat u buy from Walmart came from cows who grew up in pens all cramped together in their own poo so they aren't in very healthy conditions. But u can buy pasture raised cow meat especially if u buy direct from the buyer that is the best way to go or going to a meat market their meat is also higher quality.. As for the vegetables and pesticides u are supposed to wash the vegetables off before u eat them.. Ya they spray pesticides on them but that is too keep bugs off.. Every single farmer does that tho.. Wash ur vegetables and fruits before consumption and u won't get sick
