Vegeterian Thanksgiving

November 26, 2009

So this was our first Thanksgiving as vegetarians. For a while, it seemed as if we weren’t going to be able to have a main course. We thought that the only place that would sell Tofurky, our dish of choice, was in Arlington, and we were having one hell of a time making it there during business hours. In an act of desperation, we tried Central Market and were delighted to find that they sold Tofurky.

Surprisingly, I enjoyed the Tofurky. Megan, not so much. Sure, it wasn’t exactly like turkey. No, you probably couldn’t give it to a meateater and expect him to be satisfied. But I enjoyed it, and that’s all that matters!

This vegetarian thing has not been as hard as I thought it would be. It always helps when you make your mind up to do something. I haven’t had any cravings for meat. The only problem has come when we’ve eaten out. I never realized how much fast food and gas station food contained meat. But I’m making it. And thanks to Central Market and Tofurky, I made it through Thanksgiving.

    Wow, I'm surprised you've gone vegetarian. That's not something I could do because the diet I'm on now relies heavily on meat. I eat a lot of veggies, but mostly meat lol…

    I said I couldn't do it either. I'm looking at it as a progression. Right now, no meat or sodas (I've had one in 3 weeks or so). Eventually, start cutting out more junk food…who knows where it'll go from there.
