Omnivorous Reading v. Carnivorous Eating

I am drifting towards vegetarianism. I have not fully converted myself but am less likely to eat beef and fish and more likely to eat eggs and cottage cheese. I still eat chicken but am trying to phase that out as well. Sadly though I still do eat and I wonder whether eating cheese means that cows give birth to little cows who are slaughtered so I can drink their mom's milk. Sigh. So to help me get over being carnivorous I read Buddhist texts by Buddhist writers about the impermanence of things. Here is one I am reading right now.
