I need to know,, when vegetarians and vegans party, and have movie night, what food do they splurge on ???

Question

doesn't everyone need to have that night, where they just lounge, watch a movie, grab a beer, or organic red wine??
popcorn? poppers? pretzels? what about potato chips??? or is that food out of the question?

Answer 1

vegatarians, fell diffrently about food. I like to make a nice sald, and maybe a fruit smotthie.

Answer 2

first properly made pretzels don't have any urine in them. Anyone saying otherwise is misinformed! I saw them being made in Shaw's bakery in Ont. They are sprayed with a cooking oil to make them brown. Pretzels are basically pizza dough rolled into stick shapes. They are rolled amongst pickle salt crystals. then sprayed with oil and baked. I'm a vegetarian and I like pretzels and a root beer! Sometime I have a smoothie made with fruits or herbal tea. Potato chips are good but have to be careful of the oil they are cooked in! Canola isn't totally plant. I explained that in answer a while back! Most vegetarians don't feel the need to pig out. Sometimes I do pig out on Macaroni Salad!

Answer 3

For a "treat night" I'll usually make something like sloppy joes (Fantastic World Foods makes a really good soy protein mix) with tater tots or burgers (Fatnatic World Foods also makes a "Nature Burger" that's so frickin good - or Sunshine Burgers Garden herb is my other favorite) with onion rings (I make the best coconut sweet onion rings (using this recipe: http://www.yelp.com/topic/lyntE-kKxQwn9VJMNGRoag ). Other favorite once-in-a-while snacks are cookies (homemade oreos) or brownies (from Nature's Path mix - swirl in some peanut butter and crushed peanuts...mmm). Tempura veggies are another treat I'll whip out for special occasions. Oh yeah, and nachos! With Follow Your Heart brand cheddar melted over the top of beans and salsa and chips.
I want to try and make some poppers using seed cheese but I haven't been that brave yet. As for potato chips...I love me some Trader Joe's root chips!!! Oh yeah, and although we don't drink beer, we do drink Virgil's root beer on rare occasions - soda has become quite the treat in our household since we gave up the CRAP that's in regular sodas.
Hope that helps some!

Answer 4

I consider anything with dark chocolate an indulgence. It doesn't have to be a movie night for me to eat it. However, I do try to limit myself to two ounces of it a week. Dark chocolate comes in lunar bars, Green & blacks, Rapunzel Swiss dark chocolate, Sunspire dark chocolate etc. Every now and then I'll get one of two types of an Amy's vegan pizza. There's one with soy cheese(non-dairy) and there's one that's all vegetable. I also consider a soy latte or soy frozen smoothie an indulgence. I'll usually make or order one from a coffee shop. I like to eat the vegan stuff off of the bar at Whole Foods and I quite enjoy eating a vegan option every couple of months or so at a resturant.

Answer 5

I don't eat junk food. Period. I rarely eat processed food. I think many vegetarians are like that (I guess that's why you asked the question).
Personally, I like to eat plain rice cakes with crunchy natural peanut butter and some bananas on top. (yum!) I also like to eat Soy Delicious Brownie Almond Fudge frozen dessert. That's the most delicious faux ice cream!!
Other than that, I snack on what I normally eat - bananas, chips and salsa, or a few handfuls of dry cereal.

Answer 6

Meh i don't.

I dont mind a couple of drinks but i will always eat primarily for sustenance, taste is always secondary to sustenance.

Im not keen on snacking, i find that my system likes rounded meals of good sizes.

Most of the time when i have vegan people over we just cook for each other.

Answer 7

Soy Decadent Peanut Butter Zig Zag frozen dessert is what I splurge on (every so rarely). MMMMmmm!

Answer 8

Wow JenasaurusX! Great recipe! I will definately try the onion rings. It just sounds soooo good!

Thanks for sharing!

Answer 9

I eat almost anything non-vegans eat, only I don't have crap added to my food.
Poppers, though? What are those?

Answer 10

edit:
those are all fine for vegitarians and vegans except for the pretzels. I just learned that pretzels have something from cow urine called urea in them to turn the pretzel brown. ew.

vegans don't eat any animal by products.
& vegitarians don't eat animal flesh.
