I was a strict vegetarian for 12 years. Now, I eat seafood pretty regularly.
I'm also an active person, which includes a lot of strength training. "Regular" vegetarian foods don't have enough protein. So veggie burgers are a staple of my diet. (Morning Star Farms brand Grillers Prime are the highest calorie, highest protein, best taste burgers I've found.) Also, I gave up meat for ethical reasons - I don't value those ethical reasons as much as I used to, hence the seafood. But I always have liked and missed meat. Even now, although I won't eat one, a cheeseburger would be great.
