Do Vegetarians Eat Stuffing?!

There are no laws and you won't get fined or sent to prison for any of this, so just do what YOU are comfortable with, instead of following some rule by someone else.

If you are ok with eating stuffing, then eat it. Those that don't want to eat it, don't have to.

Something to keep in mind are what the Buddhist Monks do, who depend on their food and meals from going around door to door with their begging bowls. They are considered vegetarians, but at the same time, must eat whatever is given to them, so if they are given meat, they will eat it.

Three is no LAW.

Each person or vegetarian can eat what they feel comfortable with.

No. I wouldn't eat the stuffing even if it was cooked outside of the turkey because they probably used turkey broth.

I make my own and take it. I use vegetable broth and melt vegan spread into it. Then I saute onions and celery and add that to the boiling mixture. I tear up several loaves of bread and mix the liquid in a little at a time and place the mixture in a baking dish. Then when it is all full I bake it for a little over an hour. I baste the stuffing with the remaining liquid.

It comes out delicious. I look forward to it EVERY holiday.

I also take sweet potatoes that I bake with pineapples because people usually use marshmallows in their sweet potatoes and marshmallows contain gelatin, which is a no-no.

My parent cook several types of vegetables and rolls.

We are usually stuffed and never miss the meat.

I personally wouldn't eat the stuffing. I've found stuffing before without animal stocks/fat in them, but it's hard to tell if other people use animal free stuffing. Sometimes when people stuff a turkey with stuffing, they keep it inside the turkey and eat it that way. If you want stuffing, you can find unseasoned dried bread bread cubes and put your own herbs and veggie stock in it. I hope I helped you with this.

Everyone is different. There are no set rules about what you can or can't eat. Some people wouldn't because it had been inside the turkey, others would have no problem with it at all. If you know someone who is vegetarian and are wondering if you fix it if they will eat it, just ask them.

I wouldn't eat it. Besides, most people who eat meat use meat broth for their stuffing, making it non vegetarian even if it were cooked separate from the turkey. I follow my own rules, btw. And I personally think getting food from the inside of a dead turkey is just plain gross.

A vegetarian wouldn't eat anything that's been sitting inside a turkey.

If it was cooked separately, there's a small chance it is vegetarian but you would need to know what ingredients are in it. Usually stuffing is not vegetarian. I have never eaten any.

If it were cooked inside a dead turkey's carcass, no, I wouldn't eat it. But the last Thanksgiving I went to where meat was served, I was still a carnist. Ever since I went vegan, I've been able to avoid the dead turkey dance.

since its sautrated in the drippings from the turkey: no

if it was cooked separatly, with vegitable stock instead of meat broth: yes

As long as it is cooked in a separate casserole and does not contain any meat-based stock or gravy or sausage or oysters (traditional meats in stuffing)

I made my own vegan stuffing last Thanksgiving... it was delish! I wouldn't eat stuffing that was prepared inside of a turkey
