    I try to, out of respect. I don't really eat that much meat anyways so it isn't hard for me to do.

    I don't really know any vegetarians all around ok to eat with them. In the event that at least one vegetarians incidentally turned out to be in the room, as on the off chance that it was a café or common eating territory, at that point no I wouldn't. In the event that I was really with a veggie lover and I knew eating meat upset them at that point on the off chance that I thought often about that individual I surmise I may.

    Actually however, meat is just something single vegetarians don't eat. I truly don't feel that under any conditions I could be tried to try not to eat meat, dairy items, eggs, nectar or anything that contained them, since another person was vegetarian.

    I have no idea why I should. I don't change what I eat when with someone who keeps kosher, or any other specialized diet. I do often order kosher meals on airline flights, because they are really a lot better.

    Why do some meat eaters not want other people to be vegetarians? ... Of the vegans that I know, almost all will not sit at a table that meat will be served at. ... someone having a beer in the presence of a tea-totaler, or someone having a bacon cheeseburger in front ... Still, I refrain from asking others where they get their fibe

    I don't actually know any vegans well enough to be eating with them. If one or more vegans just happened to be in the room, like if it was a restaurant or communal eating area, then no I wouldn't. If I was actually with a vegan and I knew eating meat upset them then if I cared about that person I guess I might.

    Really though, meat is only one thing vegans don't eat. I really don't think that under any circumstances I could be bothered to avoid eating meat, dairy products, eggs, honey or anything that contained them, just because someone else was vegan.
