    I enjoy meat.

    I have vegan and vegetarian friends (although half of them have started to eat meat now) and respect them.

    I don't like when people boast about either side, but it's annoying when vegetarians get upset that someone didn't buy them a bunch of stuff for get-togethers, such as for BBQs. I'm fine with bringing some things, but vegetarians should be making the planner / purchaser aware of their own needs and not *expect* that person to know what they (the vegetarian) want. At least for the first time they have a BBQ together. Yes, I have had experience with this more than once.

    • That BBQ rant thing was in reference to one or two vegetarians. If my friend had more than that, she would've had more of a variety of food.Jaline
    • more of a variety of food for everyone at the BBQ. (my friend = the person who plans and buys for these things)Jaline
    • At a work thing one of the VPs was like handing out hamburgers and hot dogs and stuff and I had a bun and she...

    • ... went, "Hey Jerome! What'd you have?" And I told her a veggie burger please as she was like behind the table thing.
      ********
    • I told her, "Veggie Burger" please. And she just laughed and gave me an actual hamburger. I mean I was kidding but the fact she didn't even care, hahaah.

    • kidding but the fact that she didn't even care, hahaha. But circling back to your point, I agree, it shouldn't be up to the BBQer.

    • BBQer/Party Planner if the vast majority of the group is non-vegetarian.
