I work for a vegetarian family as a temporary live-out nanny (until their aupair arrives). I'm not a vegetarian, though I don't eat pig products at all, and rarely eat beef.
My question is, what do I tell the children about play food that is like a roasted chicken or a turkey leg? Do I say that it's yuck food and not let them play with it, or do I tell them that some people eat meat, and let them play with it?
Also, is it okay for me to eat meat (such as a chicken salad sandwich) while I'm with them, if they know other people eat meat, and they know I eat meat? Or should I tell them it's egg salad or something?
