BK's Veggie Burger

[Guest guest]

Oh I really really have to endorse this! My pet peeve. Of *course* they

don't care if we eat the wretched things - they're just getting on a

trendy bandwagon and trying to avoid nuisance lawsuits or whatever.

 

As for so-called friends, my favourites are the ones who say come to

**** [name your local me*t-pusher] with us, and you say that oh dear

you'd love to *but* they don't serve anything suitable for vegetarians,

and then your 'friends' say, condescendingly, 'Oh I'm sure they can find

something for you - what about a lovely salad?' Yeah right - minus the

bacon bits, cheese, rancid olive oil (what's wrong with good quality

fresh olive oil? that too trendy?), recycled anchovies, etc. Trouble is,

of course, that we don't have a veggie restaurant here - although some

of the so-called Italian ones can do a fair job - if you can trust that

red sauce and explain about the cheese.

 

Sorry, gotta cut down on the caffeine ;=) Or increase it. Yeahhhh, let's

go for that!

 

Good morning, feralfriends ;=)

 

Best, Pat
