Who is refusing to make vegetable dishes? I don't eat just meat. But let
me give you an example. A few years ago we hosted my wife's family for
Christmas. Christmas dinner is turkey. I didn't know that my nephew was
bringing his daughter. I also didn't know that she had adopted the trendy
vegan fad diet. Apparently he had some vegan food for her but forgot it.
While we trying to sit down to our dinner my wife is running around trying
to find something that she can eat. She is poring over labels to check
ingredients. Then there were her likes and dislikes.
A year and a half later we are at a wedding with a buffet meal. The vegan
niece is seated across the table from me and her plate is loaded with pork,
beef, chicken, cheeses, fish.
