Vegetarian boxed lunch is a LIE!

Fate I desire? Hell, you’ve just summed up my life now.

Except for the “saving money” bit of course.

I am a vegetarian who does not drink alcohol, sugar-sweetened drinks or decaf. If I ask for a vegetarian meal and get wine or Kool-Aid or Sanka, should I throw a fit?

I can prolly guess what happened. At order time you said: “Make mine a veggie” So your co-worker sez to the sandwich guy: “Ok make one a veggie please”
You shoulda said: “veggie, no egg, no mayo”

Case closed, your welcome.

To which the OP will reply that he said earlier in this thread that he told said coworker on numerous occassions that he didn’t want egg or mayo on his sandwich, and that they should have known that. At which point I’ll say “It’s not your coworker’s responsibility to ensure you get exactly what you want, it is yours, even if that means repeating “no egg, no mayo” every goddamn day for the rest of your life, so stop whining and shut the fuck up.”

Lets chant!

VEGGIE,NO EGGS,NO MAYO

VEGGIE, NO EGGS, NO MAYO

VEGGIE, NO EGGS, NO MAYO…

No, you should take it as the opportunity to overcome the one glaring flaw in your otherwise excellent diet. Drink the wine.

I beg you to read all of my replies to this thread. For the 17,592,392nd time, I am not the kind of vegetarian that makes life difficult for other vegetarians. I hate those militant preachy veg-heads as much as their meat-eating victims, and as much as you. Like I said earlier, it might take months before you will even notice that I am a vegetarian, I am so quiet about it in RL. The pit is here to vent. So please refrain from forming opinions about anybody based on what you read from or about them here.

Nah. By now I’d say, “you’re (meaning Tony Montana) right.” From now on it’s…

VEGGIE,NO EGGS,NO MAYO!

kabbes,

I have a request. Please check your email. Thanks!

I think so. I’ve usually flown Delta, and I know they definitely offer a variety of vegetarian options, including: Vegetarian—Ovo Lacto, Asian (Hindu), and Pure Vegetarian. I’ve seen similar options on other airlines, and think the lacto-ovo option is pretty widespread if not universal.

If you just order “vegetarian,” however, Delta will give you the vegan meal, that is, “Pure Vegetarian”–which is indeed boring and bland.

As a cheese-lover, I hate the “Pure Vegetarian” meal, and will never eat it again.

(now that I’m involved in a serious relationship with a meat-eater, this should be a moot point, as I’ve compromised my ethical principles and will eat fish or chicken when my SO prepares it. However, I still tend to prefer meatless, but cheese-filled menu options.)

Don’t wanna hijack, but I’ve got to respond to that last bit about compromising your ethical principals because you’re in a relationship with a meat eater.

I’ve been in relationships with meat eaters, including living with one. There’s no need to compromise your ethical principals for the sake of a relationship. If there’s other reasons, fine, but don’t hide behind “but he cooked a dinner for us!” If can’t respect the fact that you’re vegetarian, you’re better off without him.

Hijack over, sorry 'bout that everyone.

I have read all of your replies to this thread, and all it has convinced me of is that you’re a bit of an idiot.

I swear I just heard a chorus of angels, there.

:applause:

How can vegans eat bread? Bread ingredients regularly include butter and/or fats, milk or milk powder and eggs. How are you going to know what’s in this bread, if you’re not actually buying the whole loaf and reading the labels?

*I once had a friend

who wouldn’t eat an egg.

She wouldn’t eat an egg.

She wouldn’t eat an egg.

But she would eat turds and soap.*

Singular, sourdough bread is vegan. When in doubt, order sourdough.

It is?

From This sourdough bread recipe. Yes, some “sourdough” bread uses artificial flavors, but you can never tell at a restaurant. Might want to rethink that idea.

Oh, for cryin’ out loud.

Every loaf of sourdough bread I’ve seen in my 6 years of being vegan, has been vegan. Every loaf that I’ve bought in every store and every resteraunt I’ve worked in. I’m willing to take my chances.

Notice the last link contained 6 starter recipies, 4 of which were vegan. My point is, sourdough is more likely to be vegan than not. Your link also called for grinding your own flour. I doubt many resteraunts will be serving their bread, as I’m sure it’s a good deal more expensive than a store bought brand.

Honestly, this is one of my pet peeves. People that go around looking to “catch” vegans eating something not vegan. Freakin’ meat eaters will come up to me as I’m eating and question every single thing I have on my plate. “Is that vegan? Is that?” No assholes, I’m goin’ off the wagon today.

:rolleyes:

Whew I feel better now.

EUREKA! That’s IT!

And my reaction to it this time is the same as the first time. I don’t CARE if it’s healthy and nutritious, it looks like something my dog would throw up after eating week-old garbage!
