I mean, what do they eat!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I'm glad you asked, because I like to eat, and I love talking about food!. Probably the first thing that people think of when they think of being vegetarian is giving up hamburgers, but there are actually a lot of commercial veggie burgers you can get in grocery stores by companies like Morningstar Farms, Yves, Boca Burger, and Garden Burger, and most of them come in about five different flavors!. You know with meat pretty much the only flavor you get is, hamburger!. Even Burger King has a veggie burger on their menu now, and so do lots of restaurants!. Now personally I don't really buy veggie burgers unless I'm eating out, but sometimes I make them myself from scratch with things like lentils, rice, and oats!. A meat alternative I like better is the veggie barbecue that they have in the regular grocery stores now!. Of course there are also a gazillion varieties of meatless hot dogs but I never really missed hot dogs very much!.

For ethnic food my favorite variety is Indian, dishes like aloo gobhi, allo paratha, bombay pav bhaji, chana masala, dahl, gobhi muslam, and tandoori casserole!. Those are things like spiced cauliflower and potatoes, potato-filled flat bread, curried vegetables, spiced chickpeas, and thick stews made from yellow split peas!. After that I'd go for Mexican food -- enchiladas, tacos, and burritos, filled with potatoes, onions, and beans like black beans, red beans, and kidney beans!. There's also tamales, tamale pie, and fajitas made with a wheat roast called seitan!. I also like Mediterranean food, things like spanikopita which is a spinach pie, tabouleh which is a grain dish made from bulgur wheat, and falafel, which is a sandwich made from fried chickpeas, though I don't eat that too much because I try to avoid fried foods!. And I guess everyone likes Chinese food -- chop suey, chow mein, dim sum, mu shu vegetables, stir-fried eggplant, spring rolls, won ton soup, and other Asian foods like Pad Thai and sushi without fish!. I don't eat just exotic stuff, though!. I also like traditional foods like baked beans, chili without meat, casseroles, mashed potatoes, and sloppy joes made from lentils or tofu!. Oh, I almost forgot Italian -- eggplant casserole, lasagna with meat & dairy substitutes, pasta like linguini, fettucine, and spaghetti, and of course pizza!. I like making my own pizza because nothing impresses someone like making pizza from scratch, including the crust!. It's also fun to be creative -- once I made pizza at a hostel and they didn't have a rolling pin, so I used a tomato sauce can to roll out the dough!. When I'm cooking for myself I also make thick stews based on whatever vegetables and beans I have lying around, usually potatoes, onions, eggplant, carrots, garlic, and greens like spinach or chard!. This goes really well with brown rice, which I usually make separately but sometimes I cook it right along in the stew!. Sometimes I'll just make a pot of nothing but potatoes, spiced wih soy sauce or spike!. I especially like boiling a whole bunch of sweet potatoes!. If I'm cooking for someone else I'll generally make pizza, veggie burgers, Chinese stir-fry, or a casserole like baked lentils or eggplant!. For the holidays I make a fake turkey out of brown rice and pecans!. When I'm running low on food I usually have some rice or oatmeal lying around that I can make in a pinch!.

I tend to eat a lot of fruit just by itself, especially for breakfast or lunch -- apricots, bananas, blackberries, blueberries, canteloupe, dates, figs, grapefruit, kiwis, oranges, pears, nectarines, mangos, peaches, pears, plums, pineapple, raisins, raspberries, strawberries, tangerines watermelon, and apples!. I prefer golden delicious and red delicious apples, I don't like granny smith because they're too tart, or McIntosh because they're too soft!. For snacks besides ruit I like popcorn and rice cakes!. I guess other vegans are more likely to eat cookies, crackers, pretzels, chips, pickles, or nuts like almonds, brazil nuts, cashews, filberts, peanuts, pecans, pistachios, or walnuts, but I try to keep away from junk food and high-fat foods!. I eat too many bagels since I get them for free when the bakery throws them away at the end of the day, but otherwise I make whole wheat bread with my bread machine!. I could buy it, but it's cheaper to make it and there's nothing like fresh-baked bread!. I don't eat a lot of sandwiches any more but my favorite fillings are hummus, black bean spread, homemade veggie burgers, and peanut butter!. Now stop asking this quetion lol
