Rufus Plough: I am a vegeterian and have been one for 8 years now. I eat potato chips and stuff like that just not meat. I eat regualr stuff becuase it's not meat. I guess you can be striter though.
Dexter Gold: I think lacto-ovo vegetarians would have no problem with either of those but I don't think a vegan would touch either because of cheese and possibly granulated sugar (the sugar can be processed with bone char which is not vegan).I am sure vegans could make their own with appropriate ingredients, like soy cheese or vegan sugar.
Reginald Maxi: Yep. Sure can! You just can't eat meat or gelatin; some vegetarians stay away from rennet too, but I'm not sure if that's in those chips/snakes or not. However, even though I understand those cheap snakes are tasty, you might wanna try some pita chips/tortilla chips with guacamole, hummus, bean dip, or salsa. Much healthier and very tasty as well :D A great way to make your own chips is to spray a pan with the non ! stick spray, cut up a few corn tortillas into eighths, lay them on the pain, lightly respray with the nonstick spray, and then sprinkle with the salt. Cook on 400 degrees for about 10 minutes, then check every so often until they're crunchy!...Show more
Stephnie Patout: The oddity of it all is back when I was a vegeterian I did eat chips - albeit as that rare snack. Now that I'm eating eggs and fish, I cut out all sugars, empty snacks and refined starches, no exceptions.If you want to eat chips you can, but you really should look at the ingredients in the chips before you buy. Some chips do use lard or trans fats but there are other brands like Kettle Chips that use oils like canola or olive. If you do eat chips it might do you well to make a fresh tomatoe-bean dip. Like any well ballanced diet though, snack foods such as chips and candies should be eaten in moderation. As for cheetos - I'm pretty sure there's milk in there, and candy bars also have milk - if the ingr! edients check out it would be acceptable in a vegeterian diet ! but I don't think it's necessarily a healthy addition. Dark bitter chocolate would be better instead of something like Snickers or Mars bars which are just empty calorie foods filled with sugar and unhealthy fats.When I was a vegeterian I ate lots of grains, nuts, legumes, whole grain starches, fruits, vegetables (this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brassicaceae veggie family in particular is my favorite), avocado, mushrooms, kelp, soy/tofu, seaweed, miso, spices, a veggie burger now and then, some other stuff I'm likely forgetting about, and a food supplement called Red Star Yeast....Show more
Oren Eskelsen: well lets face it its hard not to eat a little bit of chips and junk food, well i do know that candy bars have rat hair in them, i am a vegetarian and i try not to but i do a little.
Cierra Gadbaw: yes many vegetarians do eat those things, but some may not eat candy bars because they contain milk and/or animal products. depends on their personal diet.
S! haree Doak: You can use Stems for crafts projects.Here is one project that uses only red chard stems and paper toilet rolls.treecrafts.blogspot.com
Foster Koopmann: If you are going to eat foods prepared by someone else (say a company) then you have to read labels. If it says anything else besides vegetable oil/ safflower oil/ canola oil/ sunflower oil/ palm oil, then I would not eat it since I am a vegan. As an organic vegan I wouldn't eat any root vegetable unless it was organic. This is because root vegetables tend to take in all the pesticides (which potatoes need alot of since the Colorado potato beetle is everywhere) from the soil.I would also look for NON Trans-Fat type of chip, in order to not take in that kind of oil (partially hydrogenated or even fully hydrogenated oil) as it is toxic to your digestive tract (can cause IBS).Your friends maybe trying to keep you off of junkfood, and use your vegetarianism as a good excuse. As a vegan, I figure since I care s! o much about the suffering of animals, I might as well consider myself ! an animal and make sure I don't make my body suffer for my tastebuds also....Show more
Malcom Bourek: Of course fresh is better but I would take frozen over canned, depending on the type of veggie.
Isreal Kochheiser: I know you cant eat raw cheeses like goat, gorgonzola, brie etc when pregnant... but if you cook them into a recipe in the oven is it okay to eat??
Nannie Kasee: the reason you are supposed to avoid most cold deli foods like meats & cheeses is the chance of listeriaif its cooked, it would kill off the listeria, and would be safeby cooking, that doesn't mean just melted though, you need to get the cheese to the piping hot states (usually bubbling)
Cliff Jacoby: since we always grew our own we ate them when the stalks were still not stringy or woody. Cut them bite sized boiled them and served them with cider vinegar like spinach. or put them in vegie soup. The store bought ones are stringy but tasty. you migh put them in a veggie broth! that you plan on running though the food processor.
Mercedez Trabue: Vegetarians don't eat anything that came from meat. So jello (gelatin) is out. Vegans don't eat anything that has animal origins, period.
Jade Ohno: We don't have red but silverbeet, (chard) but I believe the stems of red go black just like ours.I cut the tougher end off and throw out, but with the more tender inner parts steam a little longer than the green.My mum used to cook the white in a beautiful white sauce as tender as can be with no blackening.
Micah Schwarcz: That's a question best answered by your OB or the dietitian he/she will refer to you. Certainly not by 12-15 year old fanatic vegetarians or the odd Internet poster pretending to be a biologists. An anecdote: my wife ate cheese, cooked and uncooked, when she was pregnant. But what worked for her may not work for you.
Luke Kosch: If I had to choose, I'm going with frozen. Canned veggies have a canned tinny taste to t! hem that I can't get over. The mushyness has gotten better recently, bu! t still. And I find there is a lot of salt in canned that no one really needs.
Donita Desjardin: I would go with frozen, because usually they are much fresher and have less ingredients and preservatives. Canned veggies tend too have ingredients you don't really need or are as your said mushy. In some cases as well they are better than fresh veggies because something might not be in season at the time you want it so it would make sense rather than purchasing veggies that are from some other country or are GMO or something else bad to instead get the frozen version!
Amina Motzer: Fresh, frozen, canned
Palmira Lochridge: My boyfriend's sister is a vegaterian, and she eats chips like a mad woman. She doesn't, however, eat things made with animal grease like gravy and the like. I'm not really sure about the makings of chips, but she's a pretty intense vegetarian, and she loves chips.
Jed Porada: You should either cut the stems off with a knife or pull the! leaves off the stems. The stems should be discarded. They can become very woody and tough-doesn't make for fun eating.
Samara Siewers: I find canned veggies on the mushy side, so I like frozen better. But canned food companies say their product is superior in taste and dollar for dollar. Of course fresh is way better.
Rayford Latz: I can't stand canned veggies. They're mushy and salty and just plain yucky.When I resort to frozen (because as everyone else stated, fresh is obviously best), I always check to make sure there is no salt/sugar/chemicals added. I try to buy only organic, and that goes for frozen too.
Zora Mazzie: Fresh from my garden first, organic from the grocery, if possible, frozen if necessary, but never from a can. Cans leach chemicals into the foods, and all nutritional value is lost during the canning process, plus they are loaded with sodium.
Julieta Suleiman: Chewy? Hm... I always stir fry them and they are fine, crisp and tasty! , not chewy.
Tijuana Tatsak: Sure they do, they just eat vegetari! an chips or chips that don't involve animals or animal biproducts. I am vegetarian and I eat chips, just not cheetos or lays or anything. All the chips I eat are organic and don't have dead animal in them. Like pita chips or organic pretzles :)
Georgianna Zollo: i am a vegetarian but people tell me not to eat chips and basically junk foods because they are cooked in animal fats and what not, and i was wondering if this is true, i know the difference between a vegan and a vegetarian.
Andra Oger: The handle Feta cheese is that if it’s imported, it’s probable no longer pasteurized. Pasteurization is a technique that kills micro organism. It’s ordinary, and in many circumstances required via regulation that US-produced dairy products are pasteurized. purely examine your labels. If it says “pasteurized†you’re reliable to bypass. Deli meat can harbor a micro organism pronounced as listeria. that is killed in case you warmth the beef to steaming. For me, m! eaning approximately 30 seconds in the microwave. the possibility of an infection is exceptionally small although so in case you consume it in common terms from time to time, you’re no longer at a great possibility. aside from that, those meats are usually severe in nitrates and those aren’t reliable for you in spite of in case you’re pregnant or no longer.
Marhta Teahan: depends on how strict they are and how the product was made - some will go so far as to not eat things that other animals may need more (like certain nuts because they are not cultivated and reduce availability to wild life.)
Lue Podewils: Vegetarianism is not a safe or viable diet. Unless you follow extremely strict rules, you cannot survive on it. There is no room in a vegetarian diet for cheetos, candy bars, potato chips or any other junk food. If you are vegetarian, you can no longer afford to eat those things or you WILL get very, very sick.
Frederick Mccoach: There are difr! ent levels of vegans / not casses if you dont eat meat your body lacks ! posific protiend you can get any were else and chips come from either grain or pototo's unless there total nut cass's then they could eat it.
Scot Rotruck: i've always preferred frozen veggies to can i never cared for canned veggies but over all i like fresh veggies best xD
Anibal Scheid: vegetarian power =]
Booker Warlick: Well, to tell you the truth some frozen vegetables are expensive, and some can foods have weird superior stuff like NO salt added and stuff like that. But, I really do like them fresh frozen veggies. So I'm gonna have to say FROZEN=)
An Trebil: Except for green beans, I like frozen veggies better. They just seem sweeter and crunchier. Also, I live alone, so I can just fix enough for myself without opening a can.
Adan Stribble: neither, both are processed junk that had their minerals and vitamins and soluble proteins blanched out of them.i only do fresh, then i know that i'm not getting dosed by poisons like synthetic nut! rients and sodium.. plus pork fats, casein and other preservatives that are added after the fact.
Pearlie Medora: Look at the package,if it says lard then that means it was fried in lard,but if not then don't worry about it.
Idell Syed: Choose tender young organic leaves. Wash them well with Veggie Wash to remove the ambient soil from the amosphere and rinse well. The stalks and leaves can be cut into half inch bite sized pieces and lightly sauteed with some garlic in Olive Oil along with the cut leaves until just wilted. Sprinkle lightly with some Red Wine Vinegar. And enjoy.Personally, I do not object to the tender stems. I find it nice to have something to chew and actually enjoy them! However, if you don't enjoy them -- don't eat them. Your compost pile will benefit from them.
Rana Rudell: yeah, as long as the chips are fried in like vegetable oil. And i think they could eat chocolate. the only thing that a vegetarian would'nt eat is any thing that wa! s killed, so it could be eaten. For example, a vegetarian could eat an ! egg, but not a chicken. And a vegetarian could drink milk, but couldnt eat a cow. Hope I helped.
Lester Haschke: I like to lightly wilt the leaves in chicken broth. The stalks are so pretty I wanna eat them too! But they are chewy...
