Trust me I love fish - it’s the only meat I still eat - but I can’t seem to do shellfish anymore!

My going vegetarian has been a slow development, and it has to do with my practice.

I can’t fully explain the shellfish thing though. The last time I had shellfish it made me very sick - and I made it at home, cooked the way I’d always done it! My mother had some of the same batch too and she was fine. It was weird!

Not weird, shellfish isn’t Kosher. Only fish with fins and scales are kosher. (no dolphin!)

In fact, certain times of year/conditions shellfish can become poisonous. (red tide)

So, I can’t have Barbie (too young) or ‘barbie’ (no shrimp) anyways. Shrimp are sea bugs! (ew!)

I could never eat dolphin or whale either! They have far too high a consciousness level and that’s a big deal in Buddhist vegetarianism.

Yeah, especially when diet is a part of your practice, there’s a point where changes start to happen naturally and it becomes a snowball effect. I think that’s what happened with the shrimp for me.

Hahaha! Yeah Barbie’s not my type. :joy: Shrimps were tasty sea-bugs for a time! Eh whatever lol. :lotus:

Thoughtful Thursday All,

Yes, me too. Not quite there yet…sometimes I just need a piece of ham…but I only eat meats maybe once a week.

I love shellfish.

Yes, I know someone who refers to them as the “cockroaches of the ocean”:face_with_spiral_eyes:

Oh I give a damn, but maintaining my blood pressure and sanity is far more important.

I go back and forth between caring, not caring, and then realizing ultimately it doesn’t matter whether I care or not because I need to keep my head on straight. :joy: Either way I can relate! lol
