Can we have a Vegetarian topic please?

55 replies

I've been searching for a vegetarian topic area after going veggie last week. It would be lovely if we could have somewhere for recipe sharing and product inspiration.

I see we have a vegan topic so could post there but 1. I'm not a vegan yet and 2. I don't want to upset the vegans by asking for recipes that include eggs or dairy.

Thank you :)

Yes I'd like to see the Vegetarians get their own topic. The poor souls have been eating mushroom stroganoff for years (the one token veggie item on the menu). Suddenly being vegan is cool, and high street restaurants are dedicating whole menus to them!

Yes please from me too, I’m a vegetarian who sometimes eats chocolate for dinner so need all the help I can get!

separate veggie topic for me please.

Yes please.
It needs to be separate from vegan as they really are different, and I say that with respect to vegans.

SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock · 27/04/2019 14:24

I would love this too please. I'm a week in as well.

JazzyJelly · 27/04/2019 14:18

A vegetarian topic would be great!

Alienspaceship · 27/04/2019 14:01

Yes please

rosedream · 27/04/2019 13:59

Yes from me

impostersyndrome · 27/04/2019 13:57

I’d use this. Such as to have a moan about posh restaurants advertising meals with Parmesan as vegetarian Smile

WooYa · 27/04/2019 13:52

I'd love this too! I'm a recent veggie and can't seem to find any good recipes/tips on here without trawling through loads of vegan posts

Judeslife · 27/04/2019 13:44

I'd also love a vegetarian only topic, agree it doesn't always run smoothly when mixed with Vegan topic as they are different diets!

YeOldeTrout · 27/04/2019 13:42

R the vegans that easily offended (don't laugh). They can't mix?

I wondered if a single "Plant based diets" topic could be umbrella for both Vs to swap recipes & tips & rest of us to nosy at or add tuppence. Without having to stray into phillosopical differences. MN gets hard to use with too many topics.

MerlinsScarf · 27/04/2019 13:25

Yes please, that would be brilliant. Great suggestion, OP!

VioletCharlotte · 27/04/2019 13:24

Yes please, a vegetarian topic would be great.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 27/04/2019 13:20

This is a great idea!

@BuffaloCauliflower my thinking exactly.
I'm in a vegan and vegetarian fb group and it can get quite lively at times! It's all just kicked off over honey of all things.

notacooldad · 27/04/2019 13:08

I would be interested as well.

Lemondrizzzzle · 27/04/2019 13:07

Yes please

VimFuego101 · 27/04/2019 13:04

Yes please!

IsHastingsWifeTheRealH · 27/04/2019 12:59

This would be a great idea so it gets a yes vote from me.

FraggleRocking · 27/04/2019 12:51

I agree - this would be really useful

avinitall · 27/04/2019 12:46

I would also like to see a separate vegetarian topic please.
