I like Quorn! We don‘t have it in Germany so I didn‘t eat it a lot but I remember absolutely loving their bacon. And pea-based stuff is also nice imo. definitely takes some time getting used to though!@Welshgal thank you so much! actually, gelatin is the very thing that inspired me to ask thisit made me think there could be more similar examples that i don't know of. i would also not rely on soy alternatives a lot because i have an intolerance to it so only have it in small amounts - any other alternatives that you've found to be nice?
ah that's a really good idea taking it meal by meal! i'm having a veggie lunch & pescatarian dinner today, so perfect day to startMaybe try starting out by going veg a few days a week? I started doing only veg breakfast and then breakfast+lunch.
My sister went strict vegetarian a few years ago and the thing that surprised her most was the fact that Parmesan is not vegetarian
It was almost a dealbreaker for her. That and Percy pigs.
funny about the bacon crispsIt was almost a dealbreaker for her. That and Percy pigs.
She uses this instead. Not Parmesan but she reckons it’s close enough. Parmesan is also in things like pesto
Smoky bacon crisps are vegetarian though
very good point! i do live in an extremely warm climate so i wouldn't really have an issue with thisCongrats on your decision (if you choose veggie)
My comment is more about the vegetarian lifestyle. I didn't find not eating meat difficult as I always preferred other foods but I live in a very cold part of the UK and would really benefit from a good pair of leather boots! As I wear boots for almost 6 months of the year. My none leather boots only last for that time.
oh no, wineTangy cheese doritos aren't veggie, nor are cheesy cheetos. Lots of wines and some beers/lagers aren't veggie.
However, if you eat something accidentally, it's not that big of a deal, just start again with your next meal
They filter a lot of alcohol through isinglass (fish guts). There’s a good website call Barnivore that can tell you what alcohol is veggie!oh no, winewhy is that?
thank you so much! that's the important stuffThey filter a lot of alcohol through isinglass (fish guts). There’s a good website call Barnivore that can tell you what alcohol is veggie!
thank you so much! i think it's a very similar situation we're ini've been "veggie" for about 12 years now, in that time i was also vegan for 5 years; in the last 6/7 months i've started to eat fish so now i would call myself pescatarian. I don't eat dairy, with the exception of cheese every now and again but that's it - that's just bc i find it a bit sickly! I always think it's a good idea for people to cut out / reduce their meat intake as I do believe it's not the best for us or for the planet! my bf eats meat but he eats a lot less since being with me, for him it's something he can enjoy in a restaurant etc.
try not to worry about the transition, it's okay to make mistakes at the beginning when you're not sure what you can or can't have!
