Nor do I, but then I have a few vegetarian friends. I'm not familar enough
with true vegan, but I get no complaints from any vegetarians or semi
(allowed milk, cheese, butter, maybe eggs).

Because of my own cholestrol levels controlled by diet, I use meat as a
garnish on my own plate and have lots of veggies. Now, if a vegetarian is
so into it that they can't handle another having meat at the same table,
they don't eat at my place but we may at theirs. Pretty simple!
