Lovely picture, Lawanna! It is so nice to put a face

to a name on the computer screen.

 

Hi Gary. Yeah, it gets frustrating when pescatarins

still refer to themselves as vegetarians instead of

making the distinction! Confuses all the omnivores

out there into thinking us vegs eat fish and or chicken,

too sometimes. i actually still get asked by pals that

have known me for a long time if i eat fish! A few

weeks ago i went to a party and there was meat in

every dish except the ones i brought, and the hostess

said, " Oh gee, i thought you all still ate chicken, sorry "

Grrrrrr. *lol*

Doesn't help that movies confuse the issue as well.

i was watching some Brit film about a bunch of

stuffy folks at a manor house, and one of the guests

was claiming to be vegetarian to the butler and

requesting special cooking arragements for meals.

The butler asked if he still ate fish, and the guest

replied YES! :[

 

Wow. i didn't know yogurt had b12. Thanks for that

info, Chanda.

 

Amy,

i have GOT to try that silk soy nog this year. Let me

tell ya, whenever i see it in the store i think i will

buy it next time i am shopping and then it is too late.

People must love it and glom it all up. Then the stores

don't seem to restock again until next year.

Reminds of the Mcdonalds ads when they were doing the veg. burger.

" Might come into contact with meat and or chicken " Huh?

But I read recently online somewhere (can't remember where of course!) that

dairy yogurt has gelatin in it. (grimace) But are y'all talkin' about soy

yogurt, then? in that case it would be great to eat that, both for the

taste, the good and the B12...

Organic yoghurt doesn't have gelatin in it. But don't buy any of the

national brands, such as yoplait, etc as they do.

Hi Denise,

Tonight at the store we found Soy yogurt! Woo hoo! in a big container. It's

vanilla. As dh said, " we could get that and then put organic jam in it for

flavoring. " Yep!

We did check some of the organic yogurt and at least the Stonyfield brand

" does " have gelatin in it. Which was disappointing as I used to love their

banana yogurt.

Thanks for the advice.

Hi Bron:

 

I don't think it is all dairy yogurts that have gelatin in them only some

like the fat free ones. The best thing to do is check the ingredients on the

yogurt itself.
