Being a vegetarian requires a lot of work on a daily basis and attention to nutrition, moreso than a meat eater. I believe this is why many people give it up after a while. They get weak and don't really have enough knowledge about vegetable proteins. Too, it's much too time consuming in the work world.

I think this is the reason why many "amateur" or "en voge" whole grain eaters get a aversion on whole grain after some time.
