I can just imagine "oh! your a vegetarian! do you eat animal crackers?" "um... ::blank stare::" or "yeah I like to break their little heads off." or "only after dinner." or "HOW CRUEL!!!!!" (again I hope there isn't anyone reading this that is a vegetarian...).
if you do wind up asking someone, tell me how it goes :)

It’s funny to see that this week’s riddle is about food… last time when I was told what the riddle was; I thought that my sibling meant “wok” instead of “walk”! Some serious misconception there! :) Well, now that it’s all about food… I’m ready!
The answer to this question would be “yes” (in my opinion). Because I think an animal cracker is made out of wheat not meat. (That is if I’m thinking about the animal crackers you’re talking about!)
Oh one more “food for thought” ;) … (although I admit it’s from a sorta silly standpoint… and that’s just me!) … Would a person who could not read or write eat Alphabet Soup? (I know a vegetarian would!)
Ok- I am a Vegetarian so… Just kidding! So, no vegetarians yet, Daniel! =) My answer though is yes, of course (as long as the animal crackers are not “Animal Crackers” (for animals) and as long as the crackers are not made out of meat). Now if someone is a Gluten Free Vegetarian… then that’s a different matter.
Kathrina: Now we have to see how we can apply this to the Four Criteria of Life… Biology… 1) Animal Crackers do not have DNA. 2) Animal Crackers can’t convert energy to support themselves. 3) Animal Crackers can not sense and adapt to changes. (Although people to crunch them up when eating them… :D 4) Animal Crackers do not reproduce—people have to make them. Ok- I think we can sincerely say that Vegetarians can eat Animal Crackers as long as they are not Gluten Free Vegetarians. :)
I've enjoyed your thoughts, everyone! I guess if a vegetarian didn't want to eat an animal cracker it would be more of a mindset or feeling than anything else. :) ~Kathrina
haha nice Janna! and Kathrina, you pretty much said what I was thinking all along I just didn't have the courage to say it since we weren't sure that there weren't any vegetarians in our midst! Moral: great minds think alike... it's just that one of them is always to scared to publish his thoughts!

one question: are you sure that everyone here is a... meatitarion or a non-vegetarion or whatever we would be called? just curious.
I don't know we should try it, do you know any vegetarions? :)
Daniel
No, I'm not sure, but if someone is vegetarian they're free to let us know how they feel about it.
I'll have to see if I can think of someone to ask...it would be an interesting question...

Are brain-dead animals considered vegetables?

Johan: no I think you are talking about crippled people... ;)
Bethany: hmm, interesting... I think that they would eat it, but they would be like "what in the world???" every time they saw a letter...

PS no vegetarians so far...
Hello Everyone,

Now if someone is a Gluten Free Vegetarian… then that’s a different matter.

I just did some quick “cracker classifications” with that “amazing” biological key… and found that crackers are just Macroscopic. Nothing else.
So now I have a hypothesis! “Cracker can’t be classified!” Any more data???
Also, I’m proud to admit that I’m higher up on the food chain than those poor crackers…! (And I’m an omnivore, too!)
~Bethany
Since crackers aren’t consumers or producers… than what are they?
Victims!

Umm...I'm not a vegetarian?
::chokingly swallows the last bite of an ANIMAL CRACKER!::
Janna!!! Are you possibly trying to call ME the instigator!!! Just because I have eaten an animal cookie?!?! Outrageous!
~Bethany

Well... if that's waht you SAY Janna and I are... then what pray are YOU, Daniel??
~Bethany

homo sapiens
