Trust me, patience and tolerance and samples of good vegetarian dishes will make a slow change for many. Over the years I have converted more people than I can count. If you push them they back off and get very defensive..Donnajandemommy <jandemommy wrote:

I was introduced by a friend that sings with my husband in a gospel group. She is vegetarian and I tasted a dish that she had made and loved it. She told me the basics and I started trying things. I was told about it by my cousin at first but just really wasn't ready to try it... When Dolly introduced me to the goodies like Soy milk and other things I have switched and now I don't really even miss meats.
