As I have mentioned a few times before I am a vegan, and as a result when I meet people I often get a lot of questions about my diet (not to mention thinly-veiled criticism and hostility towards it. In fact, I often get the Third Degree about what I eat!) The other day, for example, when a man discovered I don’t eat meat, eggs or dairy products, he appeared horrified, and commented he didn’t see how I could possibly enjoy food at all (all plant-based, ya know? Trying indeed).
It’s funny, a lot of people seem to think a vegan diet is all rabbit food. I must admit, it can get quite tedious, eating nothing but plants, but the secret is to vary your diet, so you are not always eating the same thing. What I do is eat plain lettuce one day, then I have it grilled the next, and baked lettuce the day after, etc. As a special treat I sometimes have roast lettuce in lettuce sauce (served on a bed of lettuce).
As you can see, there is a lot of variety there. What’s not to enjoy??!
(PS If you want to know what I *really* eat, check out some of my recipes I have already shared here. )
Love lettuce a lot. Can’t wait to try roast lettuce with lettuce sauce. lol

Hahaha! Very funny. You really seem to like lettuce! 😀
Thanks Marita! I am glad you found it amusing, as it was intended to be! Yes, I am a bit of a lettuce addict! 😀
I suppose such people react that way because its something in their genes. I better stop now before I really get carried away.
Being a veggie great. You know my sentiments anyway. Its so strange how meat eaters react to folks who don’t eat meat. But these are usually people of low intelligence – untermensch?. Ich bin sicher du verstehen. I guess say that would be rude LOL
Yes, I do understand what you mean! I was making jokes about my diet with all the “lettuce-based” meals, but I think people have taken it seriously! Oh well…..
I love all types of lettuce.
Me too Carol!
i love it
TY Olga N!
