Today, after having been a vegetarian for 8 years because I'm opposed to cruelty to animals, I lost a bet and had to eat a whole cheeseburger. I loved it. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I found a bone in my sandwich. It was a veggie burger. FML
Today, I accidentally bought chicken fingers. I couldn't even make it two days as a vegetarian. FML
Today, my daughter said she wanted to be vegetarian like me. Beaming with pride, I made her plant-based burgers for dinner. She took one bite, screamed, "EW!" and started crying and begging for beef burgers. FML
Today, I've been a vegan for a year. It's also the day that I met my dad's new best friend, who happens to be a retired butcher. They tried to pull an intervention on me for not "being sensible" by eating meat. FML
Today, after working all day to make a big vegan meal for my family, hoping it would get them to become vegans as well, my brother thought it appropriate to pass around a block of cheese for everyone to grate over the pasta dish. FML
Today, I fed my husband a vegan beef burger so I could show him that it tastes exactly the same when he didn’t notice. He noticed on the first bite and spat it across the kitchen because he thought the meat had expired before I cooked it, and tasted disgusting. FML
Today, my cousin texted me, asking how the chicken pizza had settled in my stomach. We got drunk last night and had pizza. I thought it was cheese; it was chicken. I've been vegetarian for 7 years. FML
Today, my sister put a piece of leather in my homemade beef jerkey to prove a point. I ate it. FML
Today, my family dragged me to a steakhouse, knowing full well I'm vegan. I sat there, with my sad little salad, watching as they stuffed themselves with burned animal flesh and laughed at me. They wonder why I hate them all. FML
Today, after being a vegetarian for 5 years, I found out that my boyfriend of 2 years has secretly been feeding me meat. His reason is that he thinks it's "funny" that I still call myself a vegetarian afterwards. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It's ok, I don't think Big Mac's actually contain any real meat. Unless by 'meat' you mean grease and newspaper...

The thing I don't understand about moral vegetarianism: why is an animal worth saving when it is abused and becomes meat, but not when it is abused and produces milk/eggs/etc? If you're choosing to not support one and support the other, wouldn't it be better to not support the animal they raise and keep alive then the one they raise to die? On a different note: Of course you're going to like meat, you became a vegetarian for 'moral' reasons, not because you didn't like meat... although I'm unsure how much a Big Mac qualifies as meat

Although I won't get too deep into debate about this since this website isn't for that, I will say that every little bit can help. It's not about the animals, necessarily, it can be about health or the environment. Any nutrients and vitamins most people need can come from many sources other than meat. But the biggest issue I see vegetarian helping is the environmental one. We use countless more resources to raise and produce meat than we do to grow crops. It's just economically sound to be a vegetarian or vegan.

Don't get me wrong, I can understand vegetarianism/veganism and am not against them or anything. I'm questioning more of why people who are vegetarian for moral reasons choose to not eat meat, but eat eggs/milk/butter/anything coming from an animal that isn't meat instead of the other way around. I wonder if it were better to not support the animals they abuse and keep alive (for milk/eggs/butter/etc) than the animals they abuse and kill (meat). Does that make sense? I like how you mention the difference in resources used. That's a good point, I never thought about that. :D

I have to say that I think this doesn't count as a FML. I'm a vegetarian and I'm not the kind of person who goes flaunting it around crazy about it, in fact most of my friends don't even realize that I am one. But if it's something that was important to you and your lifestyle, you wouldn't have frittered it away with a "bet." "Today, I had moral superiority over my friends but I gave it up of my own free will. FML." No. It wasn't that big of a deal to you if you were just throwing it out the window anyway so no loss here for you. Except that if you really haven't eaten any meat in 8 years, then suddenly chowed down on a Big Mac, you'd have really bad stomach problems. Again, your own fault, though. 100%.

why are there so many people against Veggies?? In no way does it affect you directly if some other person doesn't eat meat. Get over yourselves.

You would probably be in the hospital right now, OP, not typing to FML. If this were true. This shouldn't have made it on here for excessive OP and post STUPIDITY. What are we supposed to feel bad for? That you gave up your values on the risk of a bet? That you enjoyed the food you ate? The only fml here is that, in fact if this is true, you are in indescribable pain right now...but that's still a ydi. And, also, still think it's hilarious that the people who eat meat are always absolutely railing against veggies when, um, ya think you guys are the ones being vitriolic and preachy? With this moral superiority shit? Really? We choose not to eat meat like you choose to eat it. I'm starting to think there's some like repressed guilt or something...amen #216. Ya might wanna think about getting over your own moral superiority and try to deal with the fact that people make different choices than you do.
