I will say people who chose to be vegetarian do this with the hope that they will get "brownie points".
Now what is brownie point?
"An amount of credit considered as earned, especially by favorably impressing one having power or influence." That is what I have got from google.
Now who is in ultimate power?
Most of the believers will say it is God or by whatever name we may call Him.
Thus people will say we become vegetarian to impress God so that he will look upon us with pity and do favour for us in our day to day lives.
Similarly there is the system of days the week my earlier post.
Each day of the week is allotted to a particular deity and even the days of the week are named after those who control time and our lives.
Thus by becoming vegetarian on Monday people want to impress Lord Shiva or the Moon God and so on.
Some people stretch it a little further and do "fast" i.e. the leave food altogether on their chosen days.
Thus it is the belief of the people which directs their actions. It has less to do with the facts which may be known through a scientific manner.
It is actually people what they feel in their hearts or what they are conditioned to believe in due to their spiritual masters (Gurus) or religious books or customary practices happening over decades or centuries.
Thus it is selfish interest of people which makes them vegetarian. There may be some who abhor violence against animals and chose vegetarianism but the fact is being vegetarian involves killing plants and boiling plants and frying plants which are living things. So where does one draw the line?
Thus there should be no imposition of vegetarianism or prohibiting people from having animal meat like beef. Muslims are prohibited to have pork because a pig is unclean but Hindus not having beef makes no sense especially when they personally do not mind.
It is personal choice of an individual and for Muslims and Christians and other castes it will be part of their dietary requirement. Several people will not be knowing what to have apart from this. Thus there should be no prohibition of any food and "freedom of choice" should be available.
If someone wants 'brownie points' he is fully entitled to not have meat and be vegetarian but if one does not believe in this crap and wants to have meat should be allowed.
