`Kissing non-vegetarians

Having never kissed another vegetarian, my research is unfinished, but from my experience, it's really difficult to kiss non-vegetarians and enjoy it. I usually have a fair amount of trouble ignoring the nasty meat taste/smell. Perhaps it's just natural bad breath...
Just a thought. But it's 3 am, so I ought to be abed. I don't know why I'm up here writing about kissing funny-tasting people. Good night!

 

This post... is ridiculous.

 

This has been discussed somewhere else. I don't find it ridiculous. I don't like the taste of meat so I sure don't want to taste it in an intimate moment. Talk about a mood killer. Though since going veggie I have not had this problem, atleast yet. I think I have been lucky.

If it is a problem, ask your partner to wash their mouth before make out sessions.

 

Doesn't this assume that someone who eats meat always has the taste of it in their mouth? That's not my experience. Unless they've just eaten a piece of meat, they're just as likely to taste of something else....

 

Who says romance is dead?

 

vraiment. It could just be that mouths taste like that since, y'know, they're made out of flesh like meat is. Lots of blood vessles running in that area can make it kind of metallic tasting too. Having made out with a veg and non veg's, they taste the same, the only time I've noticed someone tasting different is if they've eaten food recently and didn't pop a breathmint or if they smoke regularly.

 

are u veg? if noy u wouldnt notice
i dont like the meat eatter kisseither, but if they brish 1st its not a prob
whenever ive gotten together wih someone who eats meat we've come to an agreeement 1st that shed brush b4 kissin after eatting meat
but all of the meat eatters i dated were only occassional meat eatters and id be very hesitnt to get involved with a heavy meat eatter

 

not intentionally so, but I do sometimes go weeks without eating meat or any animal stuff aside from fish simply from not being able to afford meat. My apologies for posting in this forum or offering an opinion while not being a strict vegetarian, I'll remember to keep my nose out of here.

 

ihmurria, we (atleast I) appreciate your reply. You are probably right in that taste would only be a factor if meat was recently eaten. But if meat has been eaten recently someone who does not eat meat is going to notice, especially if the don't like the smell or taste and even more so if they have not eaten meat in years, decades, or never. It is probably not going to be that big of a turn off to someone that eats meat every now and then.

 

Not all meat eaters eat meat at every meal, or even every day. This post is silly.

 

nonono your welcome to post everywhere and i value the opinions
i was just stating that if youve not been away from meat for like a year or more
the taste wouldnt register the same
just like if you eat meat even occaswsionaly the smell can smell good but after a few years meat free you cant distinguish betweeen the smell of meat and the smell of shit (at least for me)
your sensory perceptions change
its the same as a non smoker being far more sensatibve to the taste of smoke

 

This is true, I think it's just right after the person eats meat that it's really noticable...

and I think it's valid they brush their teeth before kissing me right after eating a big bloody piece of stake... I don't want to be neurotic but if the taste of something really turns you off, then it's not wwhat you want to be tasteing in your partners mouth when your kissing them...I've been told I have to brush or drink some juice or something before I can kiss after I smoke pot...

 

My boyfriend eats meat and I have kissed him after he eats a burger or steak and I just try not to think about it. Its disturbs me a little but if I say something he'd either rebel and do it every time hah or get upset. But yeah I can deal with that but I DO wish he'd floss his teeth.

 

Damn dude, I dunno. My girl eats meat, but if we are ever out eating, she usually gets non meaty items, or if she does, then I just get dessert and share it with her, that way she wont taste/smell like the unclean meat, hahahaha

 

my husband is a meat eater..the other day i kissed him and he had just eaten jerky and i gagged...he was a bit hurt by it but i told him it wasnt his fault..i respect my husbands own beliefs and opinions even if its something i am totally against and im not about to tell him to brush his teeth b4 kissing me...and not to mention he never made me brush my teeth when i used to smoke and he didnt so its only fair

 

I agree...

I currently work as a dental assistant.....sooo...if that says anything...

 

I also agree. I'm actually really picky about kissing after eating. I'm not sure why, but any sort of weird taste I notice when kissing just irks me. I'm trying not to let it bother me, but it's hard. I guess I'm just weird. Thankfully, my bf is also vegetarian, so at least I know any weird tastes are not meat tastes...

I just think freshening up beforehand makes kissing SO much more enjoyable. Mouths, after all, are very dirty things...

 

I was almost going to date this guy, and then I saw him eat a Mcdonald's hamburger and told him it just wouldn't work out.
Didn't tell him that was the reason, though...
It grossed me out so horribly.
Kissing someone who eats meat doesn't bother me as much as someone who eats meat at a fast food restaurant. Maybe it's psychological.
