Guest guest Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I don't get defensive or argue with them, I continue to share lunches and bring veggie foods to potlucks, They are intrigued and seem to have questions and find an interest as times goes by. Some will say, Donna bring that whatever it was no meat thingy to the potluck, some will ask for the recipe but almost all of them are defensive in the beginning when they find out I'm a veg.and so many of those types of coworkers and friends of mine have ended up vegetarians. It doesn't happen overnight and if you push they will back up.

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 I used to work with someone who used to say to me just eat a steak already. One day I told him I was having sausage for dinner. When he asked what kind sweet or spicy I answered big after that he stopped bugging me about eating me for while. g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
