Yay lots of veggies. Sometimes being a veggy is hard but I have pretty much avoided meat for 13 years now

Im up for stoke ^_^

I've been one for two years, and I'm incredibily strict lol. I don't touch anything that's been cooked on the same dish as meat, or cooked with something with a trace of animal products in, I make it harder for myself lol.

There's a Pizzaera, Burger King and classics menu in "The Potteries Centre" all in the same place. All the tables can be used for any of them so people could get what they wanted. The Pizzaera does a great veggie pizza and chips, tottally free of animal fats. And of course, McDonalds now does a Quorn Burger, although I don't eat there on principle.

Speaking of Pubs etc., I'm not generally a pub person, but there's quite a few. Some rather nice ones, that will let under 18's in too.

same here! And I'm strict to! People get really pissed of when I won't have geletin sweets, it's soo anoying! :angry:

Yea gelatin is descusting... I just tell people I dont eat sweets :/

Yup alot of people don't understand why I won't eat them, they don't see them as meat.

 

[PinkSpider]

I hate it when u have to asked what stuff is fried in.. its so annoying.. and people look at you weird.

 

[Sponge BoB]

i love my meat, without my meat i would die.

 

[Ernest]

Same here, i love a juicy rare steak!

 

[Squidge]

Same here, i love a juicy rare steak!

I second that!

And oh, I'll be up for a Stoke / Staffordshire meetup with no probs.

EDIT: Maybe this should be a poll?

 

[thebluenewt]

Meat is good.

I can see a vegetarians point of view though, it's just I'd die if I didn't eat meat.

However in case I do come I must warn the astonishing amount of veggies here that any comments along the line of "but quorn tastes just as good as meat" will result in me force feeding meat to them until they change their minds!

And, er how about Newcastle? ^^

 

[PinkSpider]

Meat substitutes taste good enough for me not to care.. I have pasta alot anyway and pizza XD

 

[Azure]

How about making a poll now?
# Huddersfield
# Sheffield
# Birmingham
# Liverpool
# Manchester
# London
# Stoke

 

[PinkSpider]

do it!

 

[Azure]

Shouldn't Axeman create the thread?

 

[PinkSpider]

Yea.. waits for Axeman to create ... so how many of us will be drinking at this event.. i cant be the only one.. cant get too drunk tho if im going back to my grannies XD

 

[yaustar]

Im pretty strict.. although I can put up with other people eating meat. Im pretty much the same tho. There is a nice veggy retaraunt in Hull which is cool

Is it the one that has a logo of a red splat and a V on it in town?

I was drunk when I wrote my previous post!

 

[Tobriand]

30 quid to get to Stoke; 3 hours... it'd do

Of course, I'd prefer London, but that's way to far south for the people in the north...

 

[Axeman]

Will create a poll thread soon. Lets keep getting some more suggestions in first.

 

[frolik]

add Brighton to the poll and I'll vote!

/me tries to brighten up his corner

 

[PinkSpider]
