[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just found out that my MIL intentionally sneaks meat products into her "vegetarian" dishes and does not tell SIL about it. [b]She'll tell SIL that she used vegetable broth when she really uses chicken broth.[/b] She'll cook things in bacon fat or add some bacon fat for flavor. She isn't sneaking a steak into a smoothie or anything but she's been serving quite a few vegetarian meals with meat products. MIL things being a vegetarian is stupid and she is already being gracious enough to pretend to accommodate SIL.

If I tell SIL, MIL will know it was me. I'm on the fence about whether to say anything or not. [/quote]

[b]NP here. I wouldn’t lie directly like this, but I use chicken broth in a few no-meat dishes I make and it wouldn’t occur me to warn people it has 1/4 cup of chicken broth in it.[/b][/quote]

Really? If you were making a meal for people who straight up told you they are vegetarian, it "wouldn't occur to you" to tell them that it has meat in it? [/quote]

[b]Because it's not meat, no.  Some people really don't think of the broth as meat in that sense.  [[/b]/quote]

you are so clueless.  this is plain disrespectful. if someone told you they are vegetarian, you have to give them a warning about "chicken broth".
