    Many thanks, we have ordered the leaflet as our 18yr old son has been vegetarian for a couple of months, and we are finding it hard work.:beer:

    Hi isualive, good on you for ordering the leaflet - I'm sure it will help - and well done to your son! It can sometimes be a bit daunting for meat-eaters who want to become veggie or if they're trying to help someone else - people's first thought is often, "What on earth do vegetarians eat"? But don't worry, there's more to life than salads! It's quite easy nowadays, with loads of good food options in the shops and tons of stuff on the internet (just google "vegetarian recipes" and you'll get loads of hits). I helped my daughter when she wanted to turn veggie (she gave up eating meat before I did) and we've never looked back. I've been vegetarian for 11 years myself, so I'd be pleased to give you any assistance you might need - pm me or post again if you want any help. You're in the best place here, as there are plenty of veggies on hand to give advice.

    Good luck and best wishes, rm
