[quote=Anonymous]I currently have a vegetarian, and probably will avoid them in the future.

She doesn't eat any meals with us. Like NONE. I've offered to make her salads and cook veggies and rice and she turns us down. Often, she will cook later or eat a big lunch while we are at school/work and not eat with us. One time I remember making our dinner of rice, chicken and veggies. I asked if she wanted to eat with us or have some of the veggies/rice. She said no. Then, she proceeds to make her OWN PORTION of the same veggies from scratch (they were frozen). I was stumped. Was it because I prepared it?

She'll buy special vegetarian items or an avocado and then either eat 1/2 of it and leave the rest to rot (I don't like avocados, or I'd eat them up). We even bought VEGAN marshmallows because my son likes to make rice krispy treats. In the store I asked her if she would like to eat/make them with my son, and she said sure. Fast forward to last night, when we were making them, and she said, um no, I don't want them.

I have had au pairs with weird eating habits (one AP would eat the meat but didn't like any veggies). This has been the worst and makes me sad, since sharing a meal is so fun in our house and the best bonding time. Her absence is quite noted by my kids regularly....
