Lol. Well, I've been vegan over 10 years and have only had a few meat dreams; I've read, what seems to be, a lot of people have them.
I only actually ate it in one dream; but in each one, for some reason, I ate it/almost ate it absentmindedly. It was like I only realized what I was about to do at the very last moment -- what drama! And, yes, what a relief to wake up :D
Talk about "night terrors" :)

I have been vegan for years and have had those dreams as well. I do not take any notice. I guess it is just seeing everyone else doing it. I wonder do gay people dream about straight sex.

LOL..I've never have dreams about eating meat..but I have had food dreams where I'm having something I shouldn't (or something I don't eat anymore) like yummy gooey desserts. I've had these even before going raw and actually it was helpful because then I wouldn't have cravings because I felt like I ate the bad food!!

I occassionally have the cooked food dream. Terrible. It actually feels slightly worse that actually eating something cooked. I dreamed I had a piece of candy in my mouth the other day, and realized after it was almost gone that I was supposed to be fasting.

I dream of eating food also, sometimes meat. I will wake up and think, I didn't want that! I also am embarrassed because in my dreams, mostly I am eating ravenously like I'm never going to eat again, like a little piggy.lol

:p :p :p :p

I have dreams like this too--I had them most soon after going vegetarian, but still have some occasionally. Although I've been vegetarian for 18 years and vegan for 12, I had a dream that I was eating shrimp a few months ago.
I've only been raw for about 4 months, and so haven't had dreams where I was "accidentally" eating cooked, but I wouldn't be surprised if I did.

I have had plenty of these dreams, and I have been told that these dreams are also a detox, but an emotional detox. Consider yourself blessed that you are ridding your temptation and thoughts of eating these foods while in your sleep! Because of my weird dreams, I no longer crave these foods or think twice about what I am putting in my mouth...whew...

Same here... Sometimes feel a bit of temptation though, then just think of all the nasty things that happen in the most scientific way...and Walah!

You can definitely detox in your dreams, since we are multi-dimensional dreams. It is actually a lot easier to work through things and let go of them in the dream state as opposed to the physical state. So indeed, you are blessed! :)
