I SEE M Harrison (letters, March 18) is back on her soapbox, to convert us all to vegetarianism/veganism.

I have grown tired of the diatribe towards anyone who so much as passes a kebab van.

You are entitled to your opinions: This is a free country but please keep it that way. I don't try to convert militant vegetarians to the pleasures of eating a steak.

But in the vegan utopia where no one eats meat or dairy products what happens to the billions of animals that find themselves surplus to requirements?

I don't think many farmers would keep them just because they would look cute in their fields.

With reference to the ailments associated with eating dairy produce, did you know if you went jogging while munching a veggie burger you might choke?
