vegetarian food

<p>which places will find vegetarian food the most easily?</p>

<p>Having taken 3 children on college visits (we must have visited at least 30 in the northeast) there was not a single one that didn't have vegetarian entrees in the cafeteria daily. Even the smallest of schools had a wide variety when it came to meals.</p>

<p>Pretty much all colleges will cater to the freak/vegetarian crowd, because they respect all views for some reason. If you don't find a vegan dish, order a salad. On that note, I am going out for a nice juicy steak.</p>

<p>Many schools are acknowledging that taste is important and have vastly improved choices from even 10 years ago. While some schools are still stuck on salad bars as their vegetarian options, others have regular vegetarian and even vegan main dishes and soups as well as breakfast offerings.
The influence of international dishes from Asia including the Indian subcontinent has been a boon to chefs who want more flavorful and imaginative food than slapping a piece of meat on the grill</p>

<p>bard, they even have a student run garden, pretty cool if you're into that</p>

<p>Smith has a vegan/vegetarian house.</p>

<p>Vegetarian is just non-meat. So...don't order anything with meat.</p>

<p>probably not that many gourmet vegi options anywhere but I would be willing to say that every college has veggie food availibe.</p>

<p>aim - that's not strictly true (for a lot of veggies anyway) you have to look out for products containing chicken, fish, beef etc. stock, cheeses with animal rennet, anything with animal by-products like gelatine - it's not as simple as just picking out the lumps of meat!
To the OP - like everyone says, you should find that most places have labelled vegetarian/vegan options.</p>

<p>That's borderline nutty.</p>

<p>being vegetarian? umm...ok</p>

<p>Smith has taken Julia Child's old house and turned it totally vegan/vegetarian. In addition, there are vegan/vegie options at all the other houses. There is one house that serves only Asian food, and another Mediterranean (my d. usually eats there), a grab-n-go place, a kosher kitchen, and a bunch of others. Students can eat in any dining room they want (there are 19) and menus are posted in advance.</p>

<p>No, being so damn picky about everything, like gelatin in yogurt.</p>

<p>I'm a vegetarian, just so you know.</p>

<p>ok..well, the way I look at it is that I don't want to eat anything that an animal was killed to produce. so that makes me a nut eh...<em>shrug</em>
i find that there is a convoluted logic to it. obviously if it's a vegetarianism based on a distaste for eating meat then anything goes...</p>

<p>Do you harvest your own vegetables by hand? No? Then chances are animals died under the wheels of the tractors and combines used to produce and harvest your food, not to mention the animals the farmer ate to put in a 18 hour day of harvesting. And if you eat anything that contains eggs or eggwhites, just remember, eggs are really just aborted chicken fetuses.</p>

<p>just to clarify, at smith you don't have to live in the house that serves vegetarian/vegan food in order to eat there. and it's so popular, they're actually changing the location of the vegetarian/vegan kitchen to a bigger dining room. next year, there's also going to be a kosher/halal dining room (no animal gelatin there!)</p>

<p>i'd also look into yale....alice waters' daughter goes there and has done a lot with local and organic food there.</p>

<p>missegg, I take your point but don't want to take this discussion any further off-topic by posting a huge rebuttal. That said, I've rationalised these things to my own satisfaction, hence "convoluted" logic. And eggs sold in supermarkets are not usually fertilised, so they are not in fact aborted chicken foetuses.</p>

<p>im a vegetarian too, and i will guarantee you that you can find food everywhere that you can eat.. even if its burger king, taco bell (yum!!), stuff like that, you will find this everywhere.</p>

<p>Bryn Mawr has vegetarian and vegan food at each meal.. There are many vegetarians/vegans there. The food is excellent, too. It wins awards and scores hlgh iln PR.</p>
