Clearly most vegans don't feel the need to force their ideologies on anyone else. There are many, many vegans - it is a lazy cliche that they always feel the need to inflict their views on others.

I don't disagree with you on that. I eat eggs, on the proviso that they are free range. I eat cheese, too - but am not comfortable with intense farming as a means of production.
I don't eat meat as a personal choice. I don't believe that an animal should die so that I can eat it.
You don't think you couldn't? Have you started supporting Ipswich?
Yep, we all have a choice. My wife and two sons eat meat, I don't. The biggest annoyance to me is that it means I have to cook two separate meals...
