Actually, since we’re vegetarians, we’ve rather moved the goalposts (to borrow a soccer term).

FYI, in case you’re not aware, while you’re supposed to wait a period of time after eating meat before eating dairy (the number of hours varies according to cultural custom: six, three, or 72 minutes, I believe), the reverse is not the same, except for hard cheeses.

Good for you! There is a case for vegetarianism in Torah teaching. I’m almost there, except I eat chicken on occasion, and do eat fish and dairy regularly in addition to the vegan diet of fruits, vegetables, and grains.Actually, since we’re vegetarians, we’ve rather moved the goalposts (to borrow a soccer term).

I am the strange duck in my family. The blood juices and excess fat of beef has always been a kind of revulsion to me ever since I can remember. Scavenger seafood and pork seem to be very unsanitary anyway. Meat with dairy gives me indigestion. So, I just think avoiding these foods are healthier for a person. I would eat them if I was guest, and there were no other options. Yet, I do not think it is a ‘spiritual’ issue except that we should take care of the body the Creator has given to us, and thank Him for His provision.

I do. I don’t miss pork chops at all, and as far as bacon, the vegan style ‘bacon’ is the best in my opinion. I never did acquire a taste turkey bacon and until recently I never knew beef bacon existed. I never got into seafood (minus fishsticks) because the smell always made me gag so I didn’t have to worry about shellfish,shrimp. Still can’t stand the smell when I am in grocery stores…blech! 
It’s my understanding that in Acts 10, that Peter was told not to call any Gentile unclean (vs. 28). He had never eaten any unclean animal before or after (vs. 14) , and left the dream totally confused on what it all could mean (vs. 17 , 19).
Of course for health reasons it is better for all of us to adopt a plant based diet loaded with fresh fruits and vegetables.
