I don't eat much really. I never eat breakfast, and my "lunch" and after-school snack is usually just junk food. So, my entire food intake of the day was a bunch of chips, some oreos and whippets (cookies), some lasagna for dinner, and then half of an individual-sized pizza for a midnight snack while I prepared for a Chemistry debate.

@Helel: Yarr har fiddle-dee-dee! I ain't causing no trouble.

Also, thanks to those suggestions(+1'd to most of you, but I might have missed some). I am a vegetarian also, and it's always been a bit difficult to find foods/alternatives(store-bought) that actually have taste. I think it's really necessary to add in your own spices/herbs in the sauces bought from stores, they are way too mild.

Man, I hadn't even heard of Lazy Town until one week ago, when two of my friends showed me it. Apparently a lot of people have though.

What?!

That is crazy...and now I have it stuck in my head. Thanks for sharing. ;)

Oh, and 06/10/10 - my lunch was a delicious greasy slice of pizza from the Mall food court in town. And two cheese bread sticks. And I just realized I'm pretty crazy with all the food options I eat...

That song has been a meme for a while now, as well as Lazy Town. Doesn't make it any less fun. :)

Although I have some beef with the meat industry I basically agree with Peter Singer, nothing wrong with killing things as long as you don't make them suffer. The only thing that stops me from going Alferd Packer is really the plenitude of store bought meat. :twisted:


Please don't do this. The whole argument is a waste of time, because as with all things, people have their own beliefs and rules. People enjoy what they enjoy, and there's no need to try to feel better by putting others down.

And vegetarianism doesn't necessarily entail advocacy for animal rights. You would think that someone who drops Peter Singer's name in a post wouldn't make such a blunder.

So.... uh...

About that cooking...

When it comes to vegetarianism, Chinese food has quite a lot to offer.

Vegetarian food is a whole new genre of food in China, which in fact has many of its own restaurants.

Vegetarian food goes pretty far into China's past, so they've spent a lot longer on developing imitation meats and delicious dishes.

They use things like tofu sheets, folding them or rolling them until the consistency matches meat(I honestly didn't realize I wasn't actually eating pork and fish one night), along with finely ground mushrooms. Many of these dishes become analogues to their meat-including counterparts.

If you haven't been able to find a place to try it, I suggest googling around your area for Chinese vegetarian restaurants.

Trust me, it's good stuff.

Will definitely do this. I believe my cousin knows a good vegetarian restaurant that serves vegetarian imitation food. I'll be sure to ask him. Thanks for the suggestions

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not personally a vegetarian, but would still be very interested in giving some of this a try. I've only really ever had the tofu from a package without all that much prep. ;)

I think that's a mistake quite a few people make when they try tofu for the first time, and then get turned off of it.

Tofu is meant to be cooked. Boiled in a stew, steamed with vegetables, fried with meat, etc.

If you eat it plain, I think anyone would be disappointed about its taste. It does best when going along with the tastes of other things.

I don't think he means "tofu sheets". I think he means yuba. This is not actually tofu. It is the skin which forms on the top of the soy milk when it is boiled to make tofu. Look at wikipedia under "tofu skin". It is used in vegetarian Chinese cooking to simulate the skin of a piece of meat.

I eat tofu several times a week, prepared in many different ways. It is one of the most flexible foods there is. Many times my wife has prepared it for non-vegetarian dinner guests who did not even realize they were not eating meat.

It was delicious pizza slices from a very nice Mom & Pop pizzeria called "Earth's Crust Pizzeria" in Belgrade, MT. It cost me $7.99 including a fountain drink. I enjoyed, what they call, the Panther Pie -- which is a meat lovers pizza with: pepperoni, Canadian bacon, bacon, and sausage (plus a few extras).

Washed it all down with Dr. Pepper.

Mmmmm, mmmmm, good.


I've eaten there a few times! I used to live in Bozeman. :D My usual spot was Samurai Sams off of 19th, a buddy of mine and I would occasionally take a vinyl go board and play games while eating lunch.

Awesome! Some one from my neck of the woods, or at least used to be. ;)

Never actually been to Samurai Sams, though. Might have to give it a try.

As for recommendation, I really think every omnivorious reader should try surströmming, at least once.
It is a bit of an aquired taste, but once you get used to it, it is really quite good.
It also has the added benefit that when you opens a can in the club for a quick snack, it will make a great conversation piece. ;-)


I wouldn't go as far as quite good. Not horrible would be more like it.

No thanks, I have a strong enough dislike for strömming, even when its not sur.
