Veg-Non-veg


Before i scribble anything further, i just want to stay out of taking sides, neither  Vegetarian nor Non-vegetarian  columns.  More than taking sides, i do not imply anything  about my likes and dislikes.
Since childhood, I have been constantly spectating debates on  veg and non-veg  and often ended up with a dilemma like “whether the egg came first or the hen?”.  Well nothing can be changed as of now, its footprinted in the minds  of people.  Yes, let me have the definitions first,
Herbivorous ,  generally called the vegetarians are a class of people/animals who depend upon  the  “natural food” stuff  (intentionally quoted ).
Carnivorous, the “flesh eaters” (again, intentionally quoted) with prefix tag of Non to vegetarian. And last but not least, the omnivorous class, i just zip it out of discussion.
Ok now, i would like to mention our very own Indian scientist, Sir J C Bose who made a startling discovery of this mysterious nature; that each and every plant on this earth respire, more simply put they too breathe like humans.
 And by all means, correct me if the following interpretation is wrong:  Breathing certainly defines life and none of you would miss the missing piece, i.e, a plant is ultimately “natural flesh”.  Now i seriously don’t have clue where in the world the words veg and non-veg emerged from, probably from vegetables i guess!.
Those who eat  “natural flesh” would still be skeptic of the above and definitely compel a debate. Frankly,  I’ve nothing personal to their sentiments. Its just  my opinion about this long running debate “veg- non-veg”. Also for those who eat “literal flesh”, nothing personal again.
No idea how to conclude?, but one thing is for sure, if there is this debate out in the open then atleast one layman from the first class of people will wave the banner “SAVE ANIMALS” and as to apply Newton’s third law, atleast one layman from the latter class of people will wave the banner “SAVE TREES”.
Save trees or save animals, both are an integral part of this nature maintaining the thin wire of ecological balance and we are well aware of the fact since our school science. Professionaly speaking, you do have to provide a lot of documented proof to enable and convey something like the one in the picture, so i kinda pulled it from Veg-Non-Veg dumb stuff and drag it to "Save the planet".  Sounds ridiculous, like this or not, critics most welcome.
