What do Vegetarian eat on Thanksgiving Day?
Since they won't eat Turkey or Ham.
Do they eat cranberry jellies, stuffing without chicken stock, sweet potato pie or pumpkin pie with no eggs in it? Green beans casserole? Do Vegetarians feel left out on Thanksgiving Day? Pek1? Anybody?

Nope. I believe we eat a turkey or pig for Thanksgiving is kinda rude to the turkeys or pigs, it's like "Thank you, turkeys and pigs, for letting us eat you!". I know it might sounds funny, but to me, it's kinda of ridicilious.

There is a Tofurky, a "turkey" made entirely of tofu. Vegetarians can and do eat eggs, diary because it doesn't involved killing animals to get those. Some do eat fish but I don't. Vegans don't eat eggs, diary and fish. There are plenty of dishes that we can use. Subscribe to a vegetarian magazine and you will be surprised at the recipes. I won't be surprised if you found some new favorites.

well it is easy... if living with a Vegetarian partner or family member....
Just cook everything veggies and bowl of cranberry sauce. And cook tofurkey for vegetarian person and turkey for me. And make homemade Sweet Potato Pie or Pumpkin Pie without eggs and dairy. Depend on how the vegetarians and carnivores will compromise.

that sounds really lame to have thanksgiving without turkey or ham. I can't live without them. That's my opinion, anyhow. I doubt tofurkey taste as good as real turkey. I love the juicy turkey as long it's cooked right.

Yes Just sweet potatoes and not pie. Yes No. Just green beans and not casserole. And other pie and spinach casserole with carrots = my favorite. Not me. I really like Thanksgiving with my family and dogs. |

You don't kill the hen to get an egg, right? That is why vegetarians can eat eggs and diary. Some do eat fish but I don't because I have always hate fish.

Good questions. Sometimes I do find it disgusting if a person eats meat. Only if they are ignorant about diet and overweight.. I would let my children eat meat. But I would make sure they are educated about nutrition. The pros and cons of EVERYTHING. Like EVERY rightful parent should.

I don't eat any animal products (basically vegan) but I do use honey on occasion which most vegans don't (I don't consider a bug an animal, and I'm not eating the bee anyway, although I get that honey has bee byproducts in it---it has health benefits though).
Anyway, for Thanksgiving I get out the roasting pan so there's all the fanfare around the big main course---then I fill it with a huge gorgeous stuffing in the middle with all the vegetables (potatoes, carrot, onions, tons of garlic, lots of parsley, etc.) in it---sometimes I'll add a layer of the vegan turkey (I like Tofurkey slices---I'm not into the tofurkey itself), then bake that with sage and the whole bit. I make sweet potatoes as a dish unto itself and brussels sprouts (NEVER overcook 'em or they get gross). I make a gravy out of pureed garlic, onion, and white bean with a typical roux (olive oil and a bit of flour) with veg broth as the deglazing agent. It's yummy. We do cranberry sauce, salad, big loaf of garlic bread (lightly olive-oiled, no butter) and pumpkin pie for dessert. I haven't eaten the traditional turkey dinner for 16 years and I sure don't miss feeling like I'm gonna die after eating the full-fat gravy and the turkey, etc. Now holiday meals are fun, and pretty filling, but you don't want to go to sleep after. |

I like the plan Try dice turkey dye in orange as diced carrots, grounded ham mixed with spices and stuffings. ect. Anything unsuspecting to them LOL. Done that to fool my baby daughter into eating food mix with carrots (she hates carrots). But she spotted something orange and pluck it out before eating. Smart girl. Now she's 13 and still don't like carrots except baby carrots. Oh well. Catty |

I remmy few years ago we had Vegan Thanksgiving dinner. It was just once non-tradition dinner we had. My sister made veggie food mix with stuffings ect and tastes so good. We don't even complain about it tho.
