Herbivores.
Inevitably I have conversations with people when they see me savoring some cut of meat, that starts with the classic opening…"I don’t eat [insert some land-based animal here]." I simply say "Oh…" and keep eating my delicious meat. And usually when you ask them why, they have a variety of reasons but all come back to the topic of "health."
I would commend these people if they were really conscious of eating healthy and meat was seen simply as an unnecessary indulgence, but these are the same folks that eat cookies, soda and refined sugar bombs! They also eat the "real" food from McDonald’s and have have the nerve to question me for eating something that was raised and handled completely naturally and organic while they are consuming death on a bun or a walnut salad from some burger place! I can name all the ingredients in my steak:
1. Beef
That’s it. Ask them what’s in what they are eating and the say "I don’t know, but I’m only eating a few…" I guess arsenic isn’t that bad when you only take a small portion…

Dude, those aren’t herbivores.
Why?
Because they don’t eat vegetables. They eat sugar, refined blah, and a side of bleh.
We need a new term for them. We should call them "cokivores".
