I think it was you who was saying most veggies don't really care about imitating "real food"? You are right, of course. Matter of fact, imitate real food too much, and you'll gross some of us right out. I dohn want no fake turkey, thank you. We tried one out of curiosity and the skin was just like skin, and frankly I was sort of apalled. Jeez. It gave me this feeling, like, Dachau. I didn't like it. Which brings us to gaugie's first rule of vegetar: "Don't worry about offending vegetarians; worry about them offending you." The other thing, is that most vegetars are eating better than you. So "What do you eat?" is a question with big answers, the first of which might be "gourmet." "Good stuff." "Food."

Anybody see a pattern here? Gaugs: "One of my first dates with my spouse, I kind of made her haul rocks up from the river to my car." Edwarda: "... we spent a lovely afternoon gathering the more unusual and striking rocks that we found for his fountain. And guess who was hauling them back to the car?" Architectural Digest magazine: "[Andy] Williams wanted the facade and the three chimneys to be stone. 'Since I didn't like the looks of the sharp local shelf rock, I called my former wife, Claudine [Longet], and asked her to send me samples of the river stone we used to have in Aspen,' he says. Several heavy boxes of it arrived via UPS in Branson, Williams made his selection, and the stone was trucked to the Ozarks from Colorado."
