[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm vegetarian. To me it means I do not eat meat, chicken, and fish. [b]I don't care about broth, gelatin, and cheese. If I did I'd be vegan.[/b] I don't use animal broth to cook myself, and I don't like or order soup or Caesar salad anyway, but I definitely would never worry about something like marinara sauce in an Italian restaurant potentially having chicken broth in it. I hate fish, so I would stay away from anything I thought had touched fish.

However, I have sort of subconsciously tended towards saying "I don't eat meat" instead of "I'm vegetarian" to avoid these kinds of discussions. And even then people still ask "but do you at least eat cheese?!" [/quote]

I mean, you do you, but apart from the cheese thing, that is not what vegan means.[/quote]

Yeah that’s weird, pp. you are vegetarian but eat chicken broth? Gelatin? Do you realize gelatin is made of animal bones, cartilage and skin? Chicken broth is made of meat and bones. Obviously do whatever you want but I think it’s really weird to claim to be vegetarian and still eat gelatin and chicken broth.[/quote]
