I've been vegetarian for 33 years. Initially because of animal welfare but don't like taste of meat either. I have Crohn's and have issues with anaemia. Last year my anaemia got bad so I ate meat for about 3 months. Only ham that didn't have the preservatives on as im more at risk of stomach cancers due to Crohn's. As soon as my blood test was nearly norm I gave up the meat. Now I find myself in the same situation with bad anaemia again. I have 2 young kids and im struggling with energy. So I've found meat that's preservative free and is free range birth to death so as ethical as can be. I've tried some of the pork sausages tonight and they actually taste nice. But I can't get past feeling it's murder and seeing a pig in my head. I just don't want to eat meat. Has anyone been a long term vegetarian and moved over to eating meat and if so have you any helpful advice you can give me. Im on iron supplements and eat lentils etc.
