What I want to know is why when a vegetarian comes to a restaurant with me, they can have the vegetarian option, but when I go to Henderson's with them and ask for the meat option, they look at me as if I'm mad? They're missing out on a good thing, then. Because if you take a vegetarian anything, over which much effort has to be devoted to make it tasty, and _just_ _add_ _meat_, *it becomes utterly delicious! Someone who obviously didn't know any better gave my wife a copy of Linda McCartney's Recipe Book some years ago. I take great delight in serving some of the recipes as accompaniments to a nice juicy steak. -- Halmyre |

"Vegatables aren't food. Vegatables are what food eats." http://www.ucs.ed.ac.uk/~ercm20/pix/veggies.jpg Sam reminds me of a wedding I was at. The guy in front at the buffet was being a pain asking if everything (ham, pork pies) were veggie then giving the poor people serving the food a hard time. His g/f apologiesed to us as he'd just become a veggie. I said it was ok, I was a secondary vegetarian and only ate animals that didn't eat others. She found this very funny, he just scowled and went into a sulk. We got served a bit quicker after that. |
