To be fair, vegetarianism isn't unhealthy (or necessarily healthy--you could still eat Oreos all day), but leaping into a rapid dietary change out of fear might be. Vegetarianism works in India because there's an established tradition of cooking varied foods that meet nutritional needs and are tasty. Stereotypical American vegetarianism is 1/3 rabbit-food, 1/3 gooey cheesy pasta, and 1/3 synthetic meat-substitutes.

Or are just aware of the individuality of food.

fear mongering about vegetarianism implies a distinct lack of food awareness

I forgot we all mustn't question the current narrative

Who are "we" and what is the "current narrative"? I'm afraid you'll have to elaborate, I'm a bit of a luddite.

If you'd like to discuss any problems with widespread vegetarianism in India, which again, includes hundreds of millions of people, then I'm happy to continue this discussion.
