I'm just old enough to remember some of the last of the diehard 1960s hippies, still going strong in the 1970s, who were friends of my parents. I remember several of them claiming to be vegetarians because "when I eat meat, it makes me all aggressive; I'm much more mellow when I don't."
Of course, at the time we all just assumed that was more crazy hippie "stuff".
