Vegetarians: What is your best accidental meat consumption story?!


Question: As a minister, folks like to cook for me--and of course, there are the pot luck dinners. Sometimes sweet people will point to something they made just "for me," since it "doesn't contain meat." But one bite and I know that it is seasoned with meat broth, etc... I hope you have some good stories to share! Have a great weekend...and blessings!

Well I can't outdo the caterpillar, but I definitely take first prize for doing it repeatedly. I used to eat and enjoy this type of horrid junk food called a chiko roll which they sell in Australia. For the first year I was vegetarian i was under the "care" of the Salvation Army, and they don't think much of vegetarians so my food was the same as the meateaters got except without the meat. That meant two or if I was lucky three kinds of steamed frozen vegetable. And once in a while they'd throw us junk food like chiko rolls.

I swear I read the box 9 times and never saw the word meat, but after a year of eating them I looked at the non caterers version of the box while in a supermarket, and the bastards have beef in them.

Picture a type of junk food where you can't distinguish meat from vegetable and then picture it rolled in pastry and deep fried. That is a chiko roll.

*takes bow*
Yeah, i think I deserve the accolade for the torment involved LOL Report It

  • I know a girl who thought a chicken nuggett was a cookie!

    Banging headache .... asked my sister if she had any pain killers... she fetched some for me, I swallowed one down with water... only then to realise it was in a gelatin capsule.... my bad.

    I once ate a bratwurst while I was blacked out from drinking..I think my evil friends talked me into it, but anyway, I could still taste it in the morning.

    EWWW of all things a BRATWURST

    My mother prepared a chick pea/garbanzo bean rice plate for me as dinner one night while I was visiting her for Easter. We were both talking while eating when I looked down at my fork and noticed that some of my chick peas had little black flecks of what I thought was pepper on them. It was odd because the ones on my plate were fine but at a closer look I noticed that they were actually a complete exotic catepillar that was wrapped around my fork. Each of it's body segments was the exact size and color of the chick peas. It was disgusting and I definately lost my dinner at the table.

    Nothing nearly as disgusting as what KateD wrote :-)

    When I resided in a dorm, I once accidentally had some soup with beef broth in it.

    To tell you the truth, an ANIMAL ACTIVIST did the trick on me!

    I was working at a restaurant and I ordered a veggie burger for lunch because I was on a strict diet and I had a bad heart. One of the employees slipped some crunch bacon in there to trick me. The weird thing? She's an animal activist and she's a member of PETA.

    This easter my aunt made baked beans and when I ate some they had little bacon bits in it, eww. And i couldn't spit it out because we were all at the table

    Urgh i was a die hard vegan and i was really uptight. i went to my fav resturant and got my fav vegan meal. or so i thought. i probably ordered it 10 times. anyways one of the ingredients was chorizo (meat i thought) so i asked the lady if chorizo is meat and she said "oh no no..umm..thats a type of vegetable-not meat though" anyways a year later i was online and i was like hmm im gonna look up that again. and duh i was right its meat. explains why my meal tasted a little familiar. lol.

    After nine pure years... my friend says she doesnt like the tofu in her lunch, so I ate it. I actually picked it out, ate it all, and it tasted just like tofu. Then I passed it back and saw the side of the container... white chicken.

    At least now I know I'm not missing much if I couldnt tell the difference between that and tofu!

    She honestly did not mean to do that though.

    I was at my grandmothers house for Christmas last year. We were all eating at the table together, and I got myself a nice big serving of this stuff that looked like shells and cheese (like the kind you serve and eat cold). It had what I thought to be little bits of carrot.....until my mom and sis looked over at my plate and they told me that those weren't carrots! They were little bits of dead pigs!!!! (bacon). LOL! Another time about two years ago when I was a new vegetarian I hadn't yet heard that gelatin was animal bone, and I made a big batch of muffins (Jiffy brand from a box). Well I ate probably.....3 or 4. As I was eating I wanted to look at the ingredients and saw something called 'GELATIN'. I looked it up on the Internet and found out it was animal bone!!! Ewww.....I had to learn about gelatin the hard way.....and I've been eating that brand of muffins that whole time....Ever since then I haven't of course!

    My friends were making this weird pizza thing with smoked cheese and prosciutto in their cooking class. Their teacher is a vegetarian. They were finished with their pizza and decided to give their teacher a bite. "what's in this?" she asked, while eating it. "Prosciutto." they replied, suddenly realizing she was vegetarian. She went over to the sink and spit it all out. They were very embarrassed and never fed their teacher any of their makings again.

    really weird question...
