Now that we're no longer feuding over the great vegetarian debate, and tempers have cooled somewhat, I want to share a little chuckle with you (it may or may not be obvious that the semester's over here, and my email volume has subsided somewhat). Definition of one type of vegetarianism: I've coined the term "recovering carnivore," because in living out my own personal brand of vegetarianism, I find that I try really hard not to eat meat, but every once in awhile I "fall off the wagon" and indulge. For example, sometimes if I'm invited to eat dinner at a friend's and there's no vegetarian option, I might pick the meat out of the soup and eat the broth anyway. My favorite meats are the worst ones, like bacon and hot dogs, which I love extremely overcooked, nitrates torqued up to the inth degree. However, I've been "sober" now for almost four years, and am feeling pretty proud of myself. One of the ways I manage is with YVES veggie hotdogs-- they're pretty good covered with mustard! Bacon is hopeless, I'm afraid-- anyone know of a good substitute? Hope I got a smile from some of you. Best of luck in grading/taking those finals to you uni. denizens out there. --E. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Elizabeth L.
