It's all my mom's fault. She made this chicken over broccoli cassarole, and she's like, "I left the chicken and chicken broth out and made a separate one for you."
So I took one bite of the seemingly innocent "chicken-free" dish, and there was chicken in it. I freaked out! I spit it out, and it was extremely gross. Now, if she cooks something for me, I have to watch her make it.

i never have because i can tell if it's meat or not

i actually ate pasta salad with bacon in it...i had no idea and when i realized it had bacon in it ( about three bites into it) i went into the bbathroom and literally was writhing on the floor puking my guts out!!! i felt like i had betrayed myself!!!! it was horrid, all i could think of was that poor, defensless pig having its throat slit...words can't describe my remorse...please forgive me!!! :'(

I know how you feel, giraffespots415. Most of us have been in the same position. It's hard being a vegetarian in a meat-eating world, where something bad is bound to happen.

I don't think so. Once, I was eating a piece of pizza that I thought was cheese, but then there was a pepperoni under the cheese. When I realized what I'd just put in my mouth, I spit it out. So technically, I've never actually eaten meat since. At restaurants I try to check to see if what I order is made with chicken broth or vegetable broth.

ocassionally i'll see something that looks innocently like a salad. i always make sure i ask if its got any meat in it.

We had pizza that had pepperoni under the cheese, and I didn't know it. I was too busy scarfing it down because I was super hungry, and after a couple bites, I realized there was pepperoni in it, and threw the rest of it away...

i went to france with my friends and my french teacher (she is a vegetarian too) and when we got to a restaurant she told me to order some creepy traditional french meal. she told me she ate it before and it had no meat. so yeah i ordered it (we both did) and while i was eating i realised that it really was meat ... and she didn't notice, she seemed to enjoy so much her "vegetarian" meal:)) i stopped eating and i was hungry all day.

I thought it was tuna... thank God i realised on time to spill it up...

You never knows what happens to your food when you go out to eat

Taco Bueno put beef in my vegetarian black bean burrito :(

my parents persuade me :P

The first time I became one when I was 7. But now, I don't eat ANY meat

yes. :( i was at a wedding and there was this dip stuff, and it had crab meat. but luckily i had only eaten one bite of it and thought it was super nasty(:

I actually freak out about this all the time.

Not that i know off..l ate a marsh mellow befor, when my mom told me its animal, i FREAKED OUT

1. I asked for a vegetarian quiche in a deli and the one they sold me actually had tuna in it.
2. The hidden pepperoni in pizza - happened to me too.
3. Found out that energy drinks contain taurine
4. Cheese containing with animal rennet

Really annoys me when things aren't properly labeled! Or when manufacturers/restaurants don't specify where their ingredients come from. You can never really trust what you're eating unless you make all your own food from scratch!
