    Peeps suck. Just sayin'

    But, they are vegan. And vegetarian. Edible? Perhaps not. :)

    Peeps aren't vegan or vegetarian. They are made using pork-based gelatin.

    Yuck. So glad I don't eat them.*

    *I am neither vegetarian or vegan, but candy made from pork gelatin is disgusting.

    The Big Ragu, do you even consider yourself a vegetarian? I had always been under the impression you would much rather eat a naturally raised chicken breast cooked in a wood-burning oven with fresh cilantro and basil seasoning than some generic modified tofu dish.

    I don't just consider myself a vegetarian, I am one. I haven't eaten meat since 1994.

    Ahh, maybe it's dairy, then, that you don't regularly eat but will eat in some cases?

    Maybe I'm wrong, but I didn't think -- couldn't imagine -- Golic was talking about Thanksgiving or Easter when he mentioned "vegan events."

    AL MICHAELS ... UNVEGAN HERO!

    "I have never eaten a vegetable in my life, and you can put that
    on my tombstone. Ask John Madden about the night I ordered
    French Onion soup in Green Bay and asked them to hold the onions.
    They got it right — just the broth, cheese and crouton. Delicious.
    If you threatened me at gunpoint and insisted I have two on my plate,
    one would look like a big, juicy Porterhouse and the other would look
    eerily similar to lemon meringue pie."

    I've got bad news for you. Most gelatin is made from cow or pig bones or horse's hooves. And it's in stuff like Jell-O (duh), marshmallows and plenty of other sweets.

    Remember: Vegans are the ones who think that they are "better than everyone else."

    This thread not withstanding.

    Well sure, horse hooves. Pig bones? Ick.

    My conscience requires me to provide guests with a healthy meal, and every healthy meal includes horse hooves
