Would you want to know ?
I was in line at Panera. I overheard the lady behind me comment on being a vegan. Then I heard her say she was contemplating a veggie sandwich or the broccoli cheddar soup.
I turned around and told her gently that the broccoli cheddar soup had a chicken stock base to it. She got mad. Said it was one of her favorite soups and now I've ruined it for her. I think she was mad to learn it had chicken stock in it...not mad at me necessarily...but it felt like a "kill the messenger" moment. So.. Would you want to know ? Should I keep my fat mouth shut next time ? |

Re: Would you want to know ?
It should have read like, "Some vegan, ordering a cheddar and broccoli soup!"
And not in response to your post. I wrote it at the same time

Re: Would you want to know ?
As a vegan, I'd want to know. She sounds very confused. Poor lady. (maybe she thought the cheddar was soy cheese )Don't worry about it, you did the right thing.

Re: Would you want to know ?
I've met some people who self-identify as vegan/vegetarian who really don't get it. Vegan drinking a Latte with cow milk - but it was skim! A vegetarian who ate chicken noodle soup - but it didn't have chunks of chicken.
