What does TVP stand for? And that story is hilarious... The way I see it, we all should eat more vegetables...(admit it, many of us don't eat enough veggies)..., but no one should force us to eat only veggies.

According to south Indians (like my grandmother) if you've ever tasted meat, you're no longer a vegetarian, even if you haven't eaten any in decades.

So yes, it's like virginity.

Vegetarian - (American) Indian word for "bad hunter".

Does it count if you only put the meat in your mouth?

I think it counts if the meat was unwilling. Or didn't pay well.

I heard a similar joke about some cocksucker that built a hundred bridges just a few days ago.

"The average American diet, which is high in fat, sodium and cholesterol, contributes to disease. Some of the important advantages of a vegan diet are that your risk of colon cancer, prostate cancer, high blood pressure and heart disease are significantly lowered. A vegan diet also helps control diabetes, which is becoming epidemic. If you require insulin, you will still need to take it, but a strictly plant-based diet can reduce your insulin needs."
-a source from web says.
Been vegetarian for last 9 years. Going good

Distant relative of mine got up and told that joke during my cousin's wedding toasts. There were children in attendance. She was very drunk.

What does a vegan eat for protein? And how are those ingredients used in dishes?
