Rabbits are dumb! 2245Dave Smith something foods. If is foods I don't know why he doesn't eat red meat, it's really not my place to question him and it's...
Rabbits are dumb! 2243Dave Smith dislikes, if cater but if my guests are uncomfortable then how can I be comfortable? I mean it's not like I have guests that refuse to eat...
He said he didn't cater to them, not that he didn't make vegetables. There is a difference. If someone who is vegetarian is coming to a dinner party, he would still make his main dish, whether it was meat or not, and make the other side dishes, and the vegetarian would have to navigate. We do this in our women's group and at church where there is a woman who was raised with weird meat phobias as a Seventh Day Adventist, and still eats only very limited meat products. Nobody brings all meat, but we don't keep meat dishes out because she is there.
If someone has a religious reason, or if they have health reasons, I will accomodate. If someone dislikes something, I won't center the meal on it, but I won't go far out of my way to avoid it, unless he is the only person eating with me. Since the vast majority of vegetarians who aren't doing so out of religious obligation change their minds eventually, it is simply a food preference. If I have vegetable sides (which I always do) and a salad, rice-pasta-bread, then they are free to eat those. Unless, of course, it is a meal solely for that person. If they are lucky, they will show up on a Wednesday or Friday and we'll be eating meatless anyway. I won't cook vegan. There are some dishes that just happen to be vegan, like salad, but I won't make a vegan meal.
