[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm on the fence about this. I'm a vegetarian and have been using a mix of half meat/half soy protein in all my ground beef dishes for years. My family doesn't know and has not noticed. And I'm okay with it since they don't have any soy allergies. But, now that I think about it, sneaking meat into a vegetarian's meal is worse than sneaking soy into a meat-eater's meal. [/quote]

You are not a vegetarian[/quote]
I mean really! Are there more of these pps? Didn't we have someone say something equally stupid in another thread? I eat ground beef and I am a veterinarian?![/quote]

Lol[/quote]

PP here. Just to clarify...I myself don't eat the ground beef/soy protein mix. I just make it for my family. In fact, I usually make two different meals--one for them and one for me. Mine do not contain meat because I AM A VEGETARIAN! I love how quick everyone was to jump on me...There's nothing that some meat-eaters like more than to "catch" vegetarians "cheating." You're such assholes pps

So you stay vegetarian but you...sneak meat into your family's meals, even though they think they are also vegetarian?

WTF is the endgame here?[/quote]

You’re making this harder than it needs to be. She’s a vegetarian who still cooks meat for her fam. She makes a veg dish for herself and a meaty version for the fam. To get them to eat less meat, probably in an attempt to get them to have a healthier diet, she puts some plant based faux meat in the dish so it’s a mix of real meat and meat substitute. The vegetarians eat the meat free dish, the carnivores eat the meat and soy dish, unwittingly ingesting more veggies and fewer cows. No one is eating anything they have moral objections to or dietary issues with. However, she just realized that her actions are similar to OP’s MIL, although not so corrupt because her intentions are pure.
