If you are a Vegan or vegetarian would you eat a meal that someone claims to have "taken the meat out" ?!
This annoys me to no end when I'm promised a meat free meal or a Vegan meal but the cook has made a dinner or soup or something with the meat and then just scoups it out of my bowl! Then they get upset and act like I'm being ungrateful or bratty for not wanting to eat it!. Has anyone ever been in this situation!? How would you react!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
No, I've never been in that situation and no, I wouldn't eat it!. i guess the people that cook for me are slightly more aware of what vegetarian means!. Just politely decline and explain to them that food cooked with meat is not suitable for vegetarians as it still contains animal fats, etc!. If you're not actually acting bratty, then they shouldn't think you're bratty!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I personally am not Vegan or Vegetarian!. However I respect peoples choice to be, and I respect the fact that they have their own reasons!. If I were a cook, I would never ever do what you have described!.
If I were in the situation you described, I would be super pi**ed though!. It would depend on where I was as to how I would react!. In a restaurant- Talk to the manager!.
At a friends house- Take them to a private area and explain why you feel the way you do and how rude it is to disregard your beliefs!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No I would not eat it!. I never have eaten anything with the meat cooked on but removed, and I've never had anyone be rude enough to expect me to!. Come to think of it there have been a few times when someone offered me pepperoni pizza, I explained I was a vegetarian, and they suggested I remove the pepperoni!. Sometimes I explain about the grease still being there, sometimes I don't!. It's never been a big deal!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
To be honest, I once at the very beginning took the pepperoni off of pizza and eat it anyway, but now I would never do that, because you're still consuming something that caused an animal's death!. also, my body has actually become allergic to meat, believe it or not, so I would get a stomach ache from all of the oils still left on there!. Any meal I eat now needs to be prepared with no meat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I would do this in the beginning, but learned not to trust them!. Most of them don't even know all the ingredients!. also, don't believe those restaurants that say they have "vegan dishes" - they'd grill and prepare stuff right where the meat and grease was!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I have been in the same situation!. I either don't eat, or leave!. I will not eat anything that once had dead animals in it!. No one can force me to eat something that I find disgusting!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Religiouswise and animal-rightswise one would not eat it; healthwise if the meat is take out an aloof individual would not mind eating the dish!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
