There are many foods which  are  by-products  of  animals/plants,
that involve no killing to harvest/process/consume.  One of these 
foods  is  johns's unfertilized eggs (also apples, milk, walnuts,
cheese).  I myself do not confine myself to these foods,  however
I  did  once  meet  someone  who  ate only foods that involved NO
killing of animals or plants.  

Regardless, one should not discount johns's moral  dilemna.   All
vegetarians  have  their  own  set  of  motivations.  The various
motivations have been discussed  before  in  this  group  (moral,
health,  taste, etc.).  The best purpose we can put this group to
is to help each other further own  own  resolves  in  appetizing,
healthful,  and  moral  ways.   Congratulations to the person who
suggested a chicken vasectomy, a truly constructive idea.  A less 
medical suggestion is to simply separate  the  rooster  from  the
hens.
