so the question is how many of you will eats a vegetiarian or vegan meal as well as your meaty meals ..
not a right or wrong post
im 100% vegi my hubs is a meat eater but eats a hell of alot more vegi/vegan as certain meals he preferes things like chilli bake rather than mince beef he preferes the bean chilli bake as he says taste better ..
so who eats vegi meals as well as meat meals
again ill stress not a lets hammer meat eaters or vegi/vegan |

I dont tend to be vegan but I do have a few vegetarian days most weeks. It's not a deliberate choice to cut down on meat but some of my favourite meals are vegetarian so it usually just works out that way.
As long as eggs and cheese are still on the table it's all good - shakshuka or feta couscous salad or baked cheesy pasta or a quiche. Yum! |

I was once tucking into a tabbouleh salad at lunch and was asked if I was vegetarian. No, but I like salads …
Had a vegetarian Christmas meal once because guests were veggie and couldn’t be arsed to make it more complicated than it already is. No biggy, had turkey on Boxing Day |

"Still.eat never had vegan looks disgusting I eat some veg but only with meat other than baked spud with cheese and beans"
I think you might be mixing up vegan (anything that’s not from an animal, like an apple, potato, slice of bread) with fake meat substitutes like qorn etc |

Pretty much everyone.
Vegan meals are just fruit and veg without the dead animal on it.
Anyone who has had a cheese pizza has had a vegetarian meal.
A boiled egg n toastie soldiers is a vegetarian meal
Beans on toast is a.............
and so on and so on .....
My friend panics if she has to cater for vegans..... I've no idea why |

To stay open minded, I tried some of these veggie and vegan options because, although I'm not a Catholic, I always observe the solemnity of not eating meat on a Friday, so I thought that they might come in handy on Fridays. Every time I had eaten them I ended up farting like a brewers horse! As musical arses are not going to get me very far on first dates, I'll be sticking to fresh meat and fresh fish, with a few vegetable trimmings. |

It's not something that I generally cook for myself, but I have a friend who runs a vegan cafe and I'm slightly obsessed with her refried beans...she often boxes me some up for the freezer so I have quick meals for busy weekdays. |

The older I get, the more I prefer vegetables. My husband and I would happily skip meat dishes quite often. But we have fussy kids, and it wouldn't do to starve them, so we do have meat for dinner most nights. |

I’ve had past partners who were vegetarian and my ex wife was a chef and so I’ve learnt to balance meals and so I have a number of none meat based dishes.
A lot of dishes like Thai are actually nicer (or just as good) without meat.
I went veggie for quite a while on a few occasions…I’ve found only bacon can’t be replicated!

"I'm not bothered if it's meat, vegi or vegan. Aslong as it's food and tasty I'm eating it."
This. The only thing that's irked me about the food is when a vegetarian has insisted, wrongly and while I'm eating it, the it tastes exactly like *insert meat product here*

Tend to eat meat, fish, poultry or game 7 days a week and will continue to do so, I eat vegetables courtesy of a neighbours allotment along with most fruits.
In my cake baking I always use butter not the vegetable spreads.
I am not anti Vegan by any means, each to their own, it just does not form part of my lifestyle. |

I have meat free cereals
To be honest, I don't know. I think meat is in a lot of it, but it's not something I tend to think about, I just make or buy what I fancy.
I quite often prefer a spicy bean burger or curry to a normal one. Veggies often seem to go better with spicy food than meat. |

Unrepentant carnivore here. Red meat only - can't taste chicken or turkey, goose is sometimes ok. Don't eat green things, veggies are usually carrots, sweetcorn, potatoes etc. |

I was veggie for two years, but I really struggled, I always ate clean, but I just couldn’t get enough variety, I wasn’t enjoying eating at all, and I felt rubbish too.
I still eat several veggie meals a week. |
