Rastas only ,please. Are you eating meat and your views on that.

No. I eat plant based food. The sunlight is the source of energy, even flesh is really deriving from plants and photosynthesis ultimately.

everyone here is a rasta lol. i eat fish and eggs, apart from that vegan/plant-based food.

I don't but I know of ras who eat fish. I feel that it hinders my meditation and I prefer the alternatives anyway. Rasta is a way of livity and therefore each to his own as long as it's a conscious decision.

I , thank you each. My self is also not perfect. I was not born Rasta.. That is as a child I ate such things. And my family eats this thing.

Cuz if you are a rasta you're have been chosen by de Most High to have a consciousness, yu are rasta since de beginning of de word, just a lots of persons don't na dat ya know mon and don't have dis typ of consciousness. I&I a rasta and I eat a little bit meat as chicken and beef, don't I overstand rasta who eat fish, if yu can eat som meat, dat's only beef or chicken think I. JAH JAH BLESS AND THANKS TO ALL WISDOM AND I-Telligence

I didn't eat meat for 30 years and I'm fine. And I'm very happy to have put the commandmant "THOU SHALT NOT KILL" (with regard to animals too)into the reality of my life. Haven't perfected that with plants yet... that will be the next Level. But yes, for I-wombman it's very important to respect all forms of LIFE. Anyhow, a Rasta is free to choose what he wants to eat. But he should be conscious about it.

I eat meat, and am proud of it. Only now I'm surviving on fruits and herbs because there's no acceptable meat available anywhere near where I live.
