I don't think so, were they? In the Hobbit, for example, the elusive feasting of the Woodelves smelled of roast meats. Were there any Elves that were depicted as vegetarians? Honest question. ...rode out to hunt in Bilbo's observations when he was trapped invisibly in their caves. I live in southcentral Pennsylvania (USA), the earliest immigrants were English, then German (the local, conservative, traditional Amish still refer to Not-Amish as "English"). "PA Dutch (Deutsch)" fare is quite Dwarvish (though we are mainly farmers)... meaty, fatty, carby, po-tay-toes, chicken, eggs, well cooked green and lima beans, sausages, ham, ham, hammity ham ham, potatoes... My mom actually said they did not have meat every day. There were certain times of the year when you butchered steer or hogs or chickens. You did not have freezers, you had smokehouses, or canned stuff (in jars). My cousin lives in the mirky woods of northern PA working for the forest service... he keeps a crockpot going full of whatever game he's got... his freezer is full of deer (whittetail), bear (the smaller black bear) and squirrel (grey. (legally hunted, there are definite hunting laws).
Go outside and play...
