DIARY OF A NEW VEGAN WOMAN: VEGGIE IS VEGGIE Here I am, and I keep on facing difficulties because of my personal choice of respecting animals when I eat out. Imagine the following situation: you are hungry, so you stop in a bar and look at the menu. There is a veggie sandwich on it, and you think that could work. But, just in case, you ask about its ingredients, as you are now an experienced vegan and know how difficult eating out could be. And this ingredients are: lettuce, tomato, tuna, boiled egg, asparagus and mayonnaise. A really veggie sandwich indeed :( Another situation: You are attending a gathering and your friends decide to order pizzas. So you read the menu, and you can find a veggie pizza. Once again, its ingredients are: mozzarella, pepper, onion, black olives and tuna. Is mozzarella a vegetable? And why do everybody believe that tuna is vegetable? Cmon! It has fins and lives in the sea! Dear catering entrepreneurs : Tuna, chicken breast, mayonnaise, cheese and eggs are NOT vegetables. You can insist as much as you want, they wont change their nature. So stop calling veggie any dish with any of this ingredients, please. Or, better yet, you should offer real veggie dishes. You will win customers. Do you agree?
