From Jolinda Hackett, your Guide to Vegetarian Food
Here's what's going on in the vegetarian forums these days, including a discussion of whether or not vegetarians should pick the meat off of their food.

Is it vegetarian?
A reader asks:
If you were to eat a meal cooked with meat,and you being a vegetarian and take out the meat from the meal is it then considered vegetarian?
Good question! Several people weigh in with responses. I'm incredibly curious to know what other vegetarians (and vegans!) think about this situation, and more importantly, what you actually DO in this situation that I think most of us have probably been in. Post your response!

I'm a vegetarian but...
I'm a vegetarian but...I eat fish and chicken! Wait, WHAT??? With over 40,000 views and over 100 responses, this debate is still raging on! If you eat fish or chicken, can you still call yourself a vegetarian? And, perhaps more importantly, why does it matter? Hint: I argue, it absolutely does matter!
