Guest guest Posted June 4, 2003 Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 Hi -- we have a couple of pizza places that we go to regularly, and if we call ahead and let them know when we're coming in, and it's not too busy for them, they will use our bag of grated soy cheese for our pizza.

I will definately look this article up. I also think about the availability of vegetarian/vegan foods in traditional fast food places. I was recently on a website called Soy Happy. These people have been advocating for vegetarian foods-particularly veggie dogs in public arenas like ball parks/stadiums. They have been pretty successful. You can check out the website. I posted it below. I just want a decent veggie dog in the movie theatres here in New York. By the way if anyone knows of good place to get vegan/vegetarian pizza in New York City, please let me know!

I eat veggie burgers at Burger King a lot of times when I'm in a hurry. I am so glad to know that more and more people are eating them. Maybe they will be a permanent fixture. I've already heard that McDonald's is getting one, too...but I have a thing about McDonald's and I really don't think I could bring myself to eat there at all. Thanks again, Michelle , " Maynard S.
