Comfort Food

Pepperoni_pizzaKristie and I didn’t become vegetarians, because we disliked the taste of meat, we became vegetarians because of the sustainability issues, and the ethical treatment of the animals.  To tell the truth, I love the taste of a good rare filet mignon.  So today, we were talking today about foods that we’ve missed since becoming vegetarians; technically pescitarian (people who eat fish).  Actually if you want to get totally nit-picky, I prefer the term polite-a-tarian.  Basically, if invited to a friend’s/family member’s house for a meal, we wouldn’t refuse to eat what they have served.  Personally I think that would be rude.
Anyway, like I said, we were talking about what we miss from the meat group, and surprisingly it isn’t that much, but there are some things that come to mind.  For instance, I really miss pepperoni pizza.  I miss the oven baked chicken that my mom use to make, and also a hamburger dish that she use to serve as well.  Finally, every now and then, when I smell a barbeque, I really miss the taste of a big thick hamburger.
I’m not saying that I want to go back to being a carnivore, but I’d kill for a pepperoni pizza right now.
