Guest guest Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 And another welcome! I've also done the allergy routine- even the smallest trace in my meal and the only way I'll be leaving this restaurant is on stretcher! And that's been anywhere from England (old England in the UK) to France and Italy. You'll probably also enjoy meeting the people on the Vegan Forum http://veganforum.com/forums/index.php? many of whom are your age and based in various parts of the States, although others are based all round the world. It's a very friendly, supportive and lively place.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Thanks! I've taken a few minutes to register on that board to see what's going on. I appreciate the direction! Isn't it just marvelous (and yes, I'm being sarcastic) when you have to lie about your eating habits because the world at large just doesn't get it?
