Guest guest Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 So today we are having a work event where lunch is provided. The organizer was really thoughtful, called me up because she heard I was a vegetarian and wanted to confirm. I told her yes I was and since she is getting sandwiches could she please order mine on whole wheat? Well what do you know, of course she can . Now on the flip side I'm well aware that vegetarian sandwiches are typically just veggies on bread, with an occasional slice of cheese. So I decided that I will bring some protein powder, almond milk, and my shaker bottle to have right before the event. I'd take it with me except I have to wash that thing right away or the shake remnants turn to glue LOLOL. I also bought this shaker bottle just to keep at work in case of events like this again, and I'll have a container of almond milk and some protein powder to keep here " just in case " Heather There are two ways to live your life.

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Nice planning, Heather! Yah, vegetarian foods are usually white pasta or white bread and vegetables. Sometimes cheese. I'm always amazed that even high-end restaurants often have no clue about vegetarian protein. I wonder if they think that vegetarians just don't do protein. It was thoughtful of the organizer to contact you; I always appreciate that. I keep a microwaveable vegetarian meal in my desk at work (I get it at Trader Joe's, doesn't need refrigeration). I also have a couple cans of split pea or lentil soup in the cupboard at work. Haven't thought of keeping one of my blender bottles there -- that's a great idea!!
