i have a coworker who has been a vegetarian for YEARS, and since i got pregnant, she's been sneaking in little awesome tofu/soy dishes, and turned me on to several dishes i have given my daughter. she didnt know what it was but she loved them, and that has given me the go-ahead to continue.
i do buy the 8th continent soy milk/chocolate milk,
LOVE IT!! (hubby wont have it, he grew up in the country and any milk that aint cow, aint right!
) and ive looked into organic fruits and veggies. i think it was the word ORGANIC that had me thinking, oh hell no...its just prissier food that costs more. now i know the difference.
my family growing up never ate pork, rarely ate beef or chicken, it was mostly turkey everything. i am probably going to go back that route...i guess i am becoming a "flexitarian" for the moment!
