If You are Vegetarian and Living at Home -!
Do you expect your parents to foot the bill or are you willing to pay for it, since this is YOUR little expedition / diet/ cause worthy/ whatever!?

Many kids and teenagers don't have jobs to make money for their food!. While it is obnoxious to buy very expensive vegetarian products, many vegetarian foods can be made without meat substitutes at all!. Furthermore, parents don't have to spend as much money on meat if certain family members aren't going to eat it!. Though vegetarian alternatives are expensive, it's not horribly tortuous to pay for them to make people happy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Becoming vegetarian is not usually an "expedition"!. Usually someone wants to become a veggie to better their health and the planet around them!. Their parents should be proud that they want to better themselves!. And by the way!.!.!.Being Vegetarian isn't any more expensive than buying processed, fatty, animal product, artery clogging foods!. I actually spend a whole lot less on groceries than anyone I know!. I still include some meats for my children when I buy groceries, but a lot of fresh veggies and fruits and soy products!.!.!.much healthier and much less expensive!. Maybe you should buy all vegetarian foods for a month and compare the expense!. Eating sodium, fatty, and sugar filled foods actually make you hungrier and in the process will make you buy more which in turn equals more expense than eating something healthy and filling!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Wow, you sound upset about something!.!.!. you should maybe talk to your family about your concerns!. I'm not sure what the situation is!. (Seriously!.!.!. the fact that you ask whether we expect parents to foot the bill makes it sound like you're the parent!.!.!. but the fact that you're so resentful about it makes it seem like you're a teenager!. So I don't know!.) Look at the other side!.!.!. do you expect them to buy meat!? Maybe you can collaborate on staples and buy your own special things (meat for you, soy stuff for them)!.
If you're the parent and the people who are expecting you to buy groceries are your kids, then it's pretty unreasonable of you to object to feeding them, especially if they're too young to be shopping for themselves or they are just visiting short term!.
If, on the other hand, you're the child or a guest, then it's unreasonable for you to expect them to purchase and prepare meat if they don't eat it!. However, I understand your objection to buying things that you will not eat!.
Again, I suggest discussing with them why you don't want to buy things that you won't eat!. If you'll be eating together/sharing the kitchen, you should probably be sharing the costs!. But there's nothing wrong with not paying for something that you know you will not eat any of!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can be a vegetarian without having to buy all kinds of soy!. I don't think my parents ever bought gardenburgers for me but when my mom made pasta or something she would just make a meatless version for me!. Just compromise!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I guess your last question asking the same thing wasn't good enough because it wasn't as openly offensive!.
Any family that knows what they're doing would **SAVE** money by having a vegan child!.

This question is rude and I think you asked it just to get a reaction out of people!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
