AIBU to ask family to keep vegan takeaway dishes separate?

Well maybe you should have bloody well read all the OP's posts. She posted about the separate restaurant last night. It's quite simple. Go the any post of the OP and click on the Read All link. Now you just look like a pompous jerk furiously digging a bigger hole for yourself.

Yes and as I previously bloody replied that was written AFTER the thread I replied to so hadn't seen it at the time

While there is always a risk in some takeaway restaurants in the OP's case she had ordered her own vegan food from a separate vegan takeaway restaurant. She's ordered her guests food from a different restaurant so they could have their meat.

Reported them for what?? It's not a crime to fry veggie and meat stuff in same oil.

Or to use the same knives..

Btw many restaurants and takeaways have " hired" knives. A number are brought to the place, the same number taken away for sharpening on a rotating basis. You don't get the same knives back again so you'd have no idea what or where they'd been used before

OP has confirmed that the meat currries were ordered from a different restaurant. She ordered her vegan food from an exclusively vegan restaurant so there was no cross-contamination prior to her rude guests sticking their own dirty forks in her food.

OP has previously posted that she did just that. Her guests still used their own forks to dig into her food.

I have no idea, but since you do have in-depth knowledge of widespread cross contamination and false advertising in your local restaurants, have you reported them to the relevant authorities? And how do you know the OP’s takeaways are operating on a similar basis?

I think that’s rude anyway, I’m not vegetarian but I wouldn’t like people getting their sauce in my sauce or putting the fork that had been in their mouth in my food.

And that's fair enough. I hadn't read that before replying to the comment. But on a non vegan / veggie restaurant there's always the risk

OP has already said her food was from a vegan place. Just this morning I've bought 10 samosas from a vegetarian shop so I can be sure that they haven't been anywhere near meat or fried in the same oil.

Not just Indian takeaways. But as an example do you actually think they have 2 tandoor ovens? So a vegetarian won't get their Nan bread from the same place that chicken Tikka is cooked. Or veg samosas aren't fried in the same oil as meant ones??

And the local pizza place use the same tools to cut pizzas. I found this out when popped in to ask if they had halal meat, the answer was yes but it's still using the same tools to prepare.

The veggie nuggets deep fried at the local chippy goes in same vat as fish

I'm sure there's many more examples

But if you are that particular about something may have come into contact with meat products then why would you order a takeaway in the first place? Pizza places use the same cutters, veg samosas are fried in same oil as the meat ones etc

Yes there was no need for the guests to stick their forks into the vegan food

Yes I know, but that poster is lolling that cross contamination between vegetarian and meat based dishes occurs in the restaurant itself - somehow she knows where op buys her takeaways from, or she thinks this is a standard practice across all Indian takeaways - which would breach a number of food and consumer standards.

The OP got her takeaway from a vegan takeaway.

@Thechaseison71 Why do you think this is happening? Do you think they are ignorant about cross contamination? Why do you think that? Do you assume the same about other restaurants/takeaway outlets, or just Indian ones? Have you reported your concerns to the FSA and your local EHO and trading standards?

Takeaway owners aren’t guests in your home. Surely you can see the (very clear) difference?

Some people just love to swagger about the fact that they eat meat and that people who don't are somehow automatically tiresome.
Whatever the food and people's choices, you have a spoon/fork for each dish and you use that to serve yourself. It's not rocket science.

That says more about you than the vegan.
Do you always disrespect people's dietary choices?

I eat meat BTW, but I have the emotional maturity and social awareness to understand why a vegan or vegetarian would not want any meat product introduced into their food.

She's already said she did - yet they proceeded to ignore them and poke their forks about in the dishes instead

Regardless of mixing vegan with meat dishes (which i completely agree is not right) it's gross to use a fork that you've been eating with to get food from shared food containers.

Your relatives were rude and ignorant.

I am vegetarian and of course I don't want to run the risk of meat getting into my plate/mouth because people are too lazy not to use separate spoons or fork.

I find it shocking that some people here are calling the OP ''precious'' about this.

Nice

The OP did. These manky scunners were shoving their own personal saliva ridden forks into her dishes.

She did. They preferred to dip in with their dirty forks.

Lol but its ok for the takeaway places to do so before the food gets to you
