Vegan (alt.food.vegan) This newsgroup exists to share ideas and issues of concern among vegans. We are always happy to share our recipes- perhaps especially with omnivores who are simply curious- or even better, accomodating a vegan guest for a meal! |

I'm going to an orientation for law school and part of the evening is
"light supper." So I called the school to find out if they plan to alienate vegans or not. The woman told me to make a suggestion for something vegan. I said I like lots of vegan food, but don't really know what kinds of things would be served at an event such as this. She said they just have a salad and then 3 choices and last year one of them was keish which obviously isn't vegan. So she said to come up with a suggestion for a vegan choice. Any ideas? t.racer http://www.inetworld.net/thrill/ |

Any ideas? > >t.racer >http://www.inetworld.net/thrill/ · Vegans contribute to the deaths of animals by their use of wood and paper products, electricity, roads and all types of buildings, their own diet, etc... just as everyone else does. What they try to avoid are products which provide life (and death) for farm animals, but even then they would have to avoid the following in order to be successful: __________________________________________________ _______ Tires, Surgical sutures, Matches, Soaps, Photographic film, Cosmetics, Shaving cream, Paints, Candles, Crayon/Chalk, Toothpaste, Deodorants, Mouthwash, Paper, Upholstery, Floor waxes, Glass, Water Filters, Rubber, Fertilizer, Antifreeze http://www.aif.org/lvstock.htm ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ __________________________________________________ _______ Ceramics, Insecticides, Insulation, Linoleum, Plastic, Textiles, Blood factors, Collagen, Heparin, Insulin, Pancreatin, Thrombin, Vasopressin, Vitamin B-12, Asphalt, auto and jet lubricants, outboard engine oil, high-performance greases, brake fluid http://www.teachfree.com/student/wow_that_cow.htm ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ __________________________________________________ _______ contact-lens care products, glues for paper and cardboard cartons, bookbinding glue, clarification of wines, Hemostats, sunscreens and sunblocks, dental floss, hairspray, inks, PVC http://www.discover.com/aug_01/featcow.html ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ __________________________________________________ _______ Explosives, Solvents, Industrial Oils, Industrial Lubricants, Stearic Acid, Biodegradable Detergents, Herbicides, Syringes, Gelatin Capsules, Bandage Strips, Combs and Toothbrushes, Emery Boards and Cloth, Adhesive Tape, Laminated Wood Products, Plywood and Paneling, Wallpaper and Wallpaper Paste, Cellophane Wrap and Tape, Adhesive Tape, Abrasives, Bone Charcoal for High Grade Steel, Steel Ball Bearings http://www.sheepusa.org/environment/products.shtml ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ The meat industry provides life for the animals that it slaughters, and the animals live and die in it as they do in any other habitat. They also depend on it for their lives like the animals in any other habitat. If people consume animal products from animals they think are raised in decent ways, they will be promoting life for more such animals in the future. From the life and death of a thousand pound grass raised steer and whatever he happens to kill during his life, people get over 500 pounds of human consumable meat. From a grass raised dairy cow people get thousands of servings of dairy products. Due to the influence of farm machinery, and *icides, and in the case of rice the flooding and draining of fields, one serving of soy or rice based product is likely to involve more animal deaths than hundreds of servings derived from grass raised cattle. Grass raised cattle products contribute to less wildlife deaths, better wildlife habitat, and decent lives for cattle. · |

So she said to come up > with a suggestion for a vegan choice. Any ideas? This is just classic! First, the stupid self absorbed cow with the unwarranted sense of entitlement assumes RIGHT OFF THE BAT that the school harbors some bad-faith wish to "alienate" "vegans". Then, when the solicitousrepresentative of the school not only tries to accomodate the vacuous cow, but actually hands REAL POWER to her, the cow doesn't know what to do! This is classic because it illustrates the second most irritating feature of all "vegans", after their smugly arrogant certitude: a loathsome, crippling passivity. "vegans"/"aras" ALWAYS want someone to do the heavy lifting for them, even when the task is as light as suggesting a menu item. This moron 't.racer' ostensibly is a "vegan", yet she couldn't think of a strictly vegetarian menu item when asked for one! Holy mother of ****, woman: vegetarian lasagna with a cheese substitute. That took me all of 7-8 seconds to imagine. You'll make an excellent ambulance chaser or "women's reproductive rights" liar (the correct spelling and pronunciation for "lawyer".) |

It's spelt "quiche" ![]() I've tried to come up with suggestions that work sorta-like quiche in a meal with salad and that wouldn't be too much trouble for a busy kitchen to prepare. It's great that they're willing to accommodate you, and if you give them a couple of ideas that they can prepare quite easily, they'll have a better idea of how to feed vegans in the future. Chickpea-stuffed peppers. A lot of stuffed pepper recipes are really quite boring; they just bung some rice into a pepper and call it a meal. This one's got chickpeas in it for a bit more substance. http://www.earth.li/~kake/cookery/re...d-peppers.html Jacket potato with hummous. It may sound a bit boring but if the salad is interesting then this can be a very nice light meal. Bake the potato, hollow it out, mash the insides with hummous and optionally some chopped fresh herbs, put the insides back in, bake a bit longer. Bought hummous is fine for this. Noodle salad with peanut dressing. http://www.earth.li/~kake/cookery/re...dle-salad.html Kake |

Thanks for your help. You rock! I printed it out and will deliver it.
I'm just ignoring that "Wilson Wood's" response because it made ignorant comments right off the bat and is probably just jealous because it got rejected from law school probably by a vegan in the admissions dept. Kinda like how Hitler's artwork was criticized by a Jew.
