A. You aren't a vegetarian. You are a vegan. Vegans don't get anything that comes from animal such as eggs, cheese and especially meat. You are closer to a vegan than a vegetarian.

Can a vegetarian still be considered a vegetarian and wear ballet slippers?
Q. I've been a vegetarian for more than a year and I just realized (dumb, I know) that my ballet slippers (their not pointe shoes) are made with leather. Can I still be considered a vegetarian if I keep wearing them? I'm quite serious about being a ballerina and a vegetarian. So there's my dilema. Thanks. EDIT: I think I wrote the question wrong. I meant to ask what you would do, your opinions. Sorry. Also, canvas shoes wouldn't work because I do competitions and ballet exams, so canvas shoes would be unnacceptable.

Can a vegetarian eat something cooked in the same oil as meat?
Q. I found this website that helps vegetarians with fast-food, and it warns that some restaurants cook vegetarian dishes in the same oil as the rest of their food. Is that a warning to all vegetarians or just some, like vegans?
Asked by JTD - Sun Feb 17 21:50:27 2008 - - 11 Answers - 1 Comments
A. it really just depends on what kind of vegetarian you are. some just dont eat meat directly, but may have soups and such with chicken broth, or they pick the pepperoni off the pizza type of people. others eat nothing that come in contact with meat. at all. they ask workers to change their glovers between orders and cannot consume meat in any way at all. then the vegan eat nothing that comes from animals. from what ive learned, most really strict vegetarians, not vegans, have been that veges since birth, so meat consumption would have actual negative affects on the body. the others just prefer to not eat meat and care a little less about indirect consumption. but it really just depends on the persons beliefs

How do you know what cheeses are vegetarian?
Q. I'm trying to become a vegetarian. I know there is something in some cheeses that makes them non-vegetarian. I know that rennet is bad. If it says "enzymes" is that also bad? Where do enzymes come from? Do most restaurants use non-vegetarian cheese? For example, a cheese and broccoli baked potato from Arby's - would a vegetarian eat that?

A. Cheese is not vegetarian or vegan. You can make a cheese substitue from soy, pimentos or other foods that are not dairy or meat based. Cheese is produced from putrified milk products, there fore it is dairy not vegetarian. Enzymes can be good or bad, depending on where they originated and what form they currently are in. Enzymes in cheese can cause gas and bloating...the putrified dairy product. Imitation cheese food may be what you are asking about. Most restaurants use american cheese which is still dairy.

I would opt for a vegetable dish (something like mushrooms and bamboo shoots, celery and cashews, mixed vegetables, aubergine in black bean sauce), some fried rice or plain noodles and maybe some deep fried seaweed or spring rolls. If you see something you fancy that has meat included on the dish, then ask the waiter/waitress if they can exclude that item from the dish..it shouldn't be a problem. Have a lovely meal!! xox

A. Being vegetarian is very good for your health! I couldn't lose weight for a while, and after I become vegetarian, I lost nearly twenty pounds with exercise! Being vegetarian reduced the chance for many health problems, as long as you eat right. You need to make sure you get enough iron and protien, although you don't need to take pills for it. You can get protien from legumes and nuts, as well from soy products and other foods. Iron can be found in spinach, bran cereal, and certain vegetables. There's lot of websites and books that give you good information about it. Not only is being vegetarian good for your health, you also feel lighter. Almost like you had weights inside you holding you down, but now they're gone.

Here's a recipe for stuffing: And for gravy: VegWeb might also have some good "loaf" recipes. There's also a website called Vegetarian Loaf Studio where you can pick your ingredients to make your loaf. I've tried Tofurkey, and I'm not a big fan.

There are vegetarian MRE's as well. I am a vegan and a Marine Corps veteran.

By eating fish, you say all this waste of life is ok. In Oregon, they've started shooting sea lions who eat Salmon in the Columbia. Why? Because they are taking fish away from fishermen. They want to kill the sea… [cont.]

Why are eggs considered part of a vegetarian diet?
Q. I wonder why they are seen in vegetarian recipe books, because they are part of the meat group in the food pyramid. They come from chickens and could potentially grow into chickens, so why it is considered okay (in mainstream society) to eat them if you're a vegetarian? If I was a vegetarian, I would just strictly eat fruits, grains, and vegetables. Thanks for your help! I appreciate it.

A. Perhaps because the eggs are not fertilized, you are not technically killing any life when you eat them. This is also why some vegetarians consume dairy. Milking a cow does not really harm the animal. However, many vegetarians I know refrain from consuming any animal product at all because they believe animals shouldn't be raised in deplorable conditions just to please the human palate.

How difficult is it to become a vegetarian after 18 years of eating meat?
Q. I know several people who are vegetarians and they seem to be extremely healthy. I would like to try to become a vegetarian, for health reasons and the fact that it can make you lose weight. I like most fruits and veggies, but my entire life I have been eating meat. Chicken, beef, fish, liver mush, bacon etc. Has anyone here been a total carnivore and then did a complete 180 to a vegetarian? And also could you list some pros and cons of vegetarianism? Thank you in advance :)

A. My mom did this exact same thing. She gave up meat last year as her resolution and it's been over a year since she's eaten meat. I'm not sure how she does it because my dad, sister and I still eat it on a regular basis. She says she doesn't miss it because there are so many other food options and meat replacements. She has a lot of the Boca products.

Where can I find reliable information about becoming a vegetarian?
Q. Lately I have found redmeat and sometimes poultry disgusting. Not in the way it's cooked but more like i'm losing a taste for it. I'm seriously thinking about becoming a vegetarian. I know about the lack of protein that some vegetarians have, but what are some other downfalls to being a vegetarian? What are some good things? Most importantly where can i find reliable information on becoming a vegetarian?

A. a book that contains plenty of well-rounded information is "diet for a new america" by john robbins. it explains the myth about vegetarians not getting enough protein, why our bodies are not designed to handle animal products, and everything else you need to know about it. someone recommended 'the idiot's guide to being vegan'... that should also have a wealth of info. vegetarians usually do not lack protein... unless they're eating nothing but junk food. protein can be found in almost all vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, and grains. even iceberg lettuce has protein. most people get too much because of all the hype surrounding protein. i thought going vegetarian was one of the best health choices i've made... but then i became a vegan… [cont.]

How hard is it to transition to becoming a vegetarian? What are some filling vegetarian meals?
Q. I'm absolutely love eating meat. Plus, I'm very active and need to eat filling meals. However, I've been reading a lot about how eating meat is bad for world food supplies and the environment. For example, it takes 6 pounds of grain to make 1 pound of meat. Basically I'm interested in becoming a vegetarian or at least cutting back on my meat intake. I'm asking this to vegetarians who have big apetites and used to be carnevours: How difficult is the transition? Also, what are some good vegetarian meals?

A. i didn't find it hard, but it does take a bit of adjusting if you're used to only cooking meals with meat. you'll have to visit some recipe websites or get some cookbooks to build a recipe library. like some of the other posters said, i strongly recommend buying some faux meats if you're used to eating meat all the time. if you don't like the first brand you try, go for another. don't write off being a vegetarian if you don't like the veggieburger. there are great chicken, beef, and bacon substitutes that are actually very good. i also found it easy to keep some vegetarian convenience foods around the house. amy's products and some of the "thai kitchen" products are great if you just don't feel like being creative in the kitchen. … [cont.]

We lose fats in 2 ways: burn fats with workout, and burn fats with muscle. As we increase our muscle, we burn much more body fat. It is a great cycle to get caught up in! Exercise, lose fats, build muscle, lose more body fat.
