      Wife is making vegetarian BLTs for lunch right now. On my third cup of coffee.

      Vegetarian BLT? What do you use for the B ??

      Normally Morningstar Veggie Bacon, which even before I was a vegetarian I preferred to real bacon. But today we are testing out a new product called Benevolent Bacon that we have never tried before.

      Cool. I don't know many vegetarians (or is it vegan?) so I'm not overly aware of the options out there.

      I know that Morningstar Bacon is vegan. No idea about this new one. I'm not vegan, so I don't pay attention.

      Ok, so I was right... There's a difference between vegans and vegetarians... /sigh... Time to go check google.

      Vegans don't eat anything made from an animal at all. No eggs, no milk, nothing. Vegetarians on the other hand often accept milk for example. There's no clear definition for that.

      There WAS a clear definition. Vegetarian always meant dairy, eggs and even fish. That there is any ambiguity is purely a recent thing in the last decade or so.

        Ok, but I think @dafyre got it somehow 😉 Some eat nothing from an animal, some just eat no meat, some are in between.

        I don't mind, whatever makes you happy. We try to not eat meat a few days per week, but that's something you need to decide for yourself.

          So you like fish and such? ... and haven't I seen pictures you eating things that have meat or is that just my imagination?

          I'm a carnivore, lol. If it's food and placed in front of me, I'll try it at least once. 🙂

              I eat fish, as I'm a vegetarian. but no meat, no. Not since around 2001.

                        No, the restaurant is called lobster, I don't really eat lobster.

                        "... because they eat poo", I remember 😉

                        Yup. They are gross things. And they don't normally taste that good. Other than a New England lobster roll, or a good bisque, I rarely would want something with lobster in it. My parents were serious lobster eaters, though, eating up to eight per day between them, it was crazy.

                          Wife is making vegetarian BLTs for lunch right now. On my third cup of coffee.

                          Vegetarian BLT? What do you use for the B ??

                          Normally Morningstar Veggie Bacon, which even before I was a vegetarian I preferred to real bacon. But today we are testing out a new product called Benevolent Bacon that we have never tried before.

                          Cool. I don't know many vegetarians (or is it vegan?) so I'm not overly aware of the options out there.

                          I know that Morningstar Bacon is vegan. No idea about this new one. I'm not vegan, so I don't pay attention.

                          Ok, so I was right... There's a difference between vegans and vegetarians... /sigh... Time to go check google.

                          Vegans don't eat anything made from an animal at all. No eggs, no milk, nothing. Vegetarians on the other hand often accept milk for example. There's no clear definition for that.

                          There WAS a clear definition. Vegetarian always meant dairy, eggs and even fish. That there is any ambiguity is purely a recent thing in the last decade or so.

                          So you like fish and such? ... and haven't I seen pictures you eating things that have meat or is that just my imagination?

                          I'm a carnivore, lol. If it's food and placed in front of me, I'll try it at least once. 🙂

                          As my wife calls them... the cockroaches of the sea.

                          That's an apt description.

                            Although my uncle used to eat cockroaches, so they are rather edible. Of course, he was also cooking them on a radar dish in Vietnam so...

                                Pine nuts are actually delicious.

                                      They used to provide prisoners with lobster, I think in the 1600-1700s as it was a ridiculously inexpensive form of protein. They were so conflated with being disgusting that there was movement to ban the practice as cruel and unusual punishment.

                                      I don't particularly enjoy lobster or crab. But I'll eat it if it is put in front of me.

                                        In the South Pacific, islanders only eat lobster as a last resort, long after running out of SPAM.

                                          Nope, no way. Nothing that crawls under water, swims in it or that may stick its head out of it. Thanks, but no thanks.

                                          Kind of a phobia back from my kindergarten time: We were forced to sit in front of our meal until our parents catched us up at 4pm. Cooked (boiled?) fish every friday. Really loved fish up until this point, tried it a few again but never really ate one ever since.
