Achilles,
Since it says you are in Boston, here's a link to some information about vegan shopping there. Hope this helps. It doesn't look like any are entirely vegan but it appears there's a good...
Update:
Yesterday was fabulous! It was a true joy to meet other like minded individuals. It was neat to try other peoples cooking too. Most impressive was the veggie oyster sauce and tvp. YUM!
...
I'm a big old quitter. I gave up and started buying vegan chicken patties. I'm going to have to find someone who teaches a class in it or something. I have never eaten it in a restaurant so I really...
If anyone is interested the May meet up has been scheduled. We are having a cook out and pool party.

Iamraley,
Do you have many vegan resources there? Every time I think of Columbia I think of Piggy Park well that, and the Cocks!
Sheila
Thank You!:)
I happened to be in the shop where I buy my yeast yesterday. I asked the lady who always helps me. She said she had never heard of anyone putting it in the freezer but thought it might be OK if you...
I'm not sure about the freezer but I bought a bag of yeast at the store and they told me that I needed to keep it in the fridge to keep the little yeasts happy.

You mean butter isn't vegan? Oh, that must be like fish is vegetarian!:cool:

Well I'll welcome you early! Charlotte is a great place to live. I left Vegas 11 years ago for here and love it.

I found this recipe yesterday and made it last night. It was SO GOOD! The cheese sauce is amazing and the vegan ricotta was so good.
...
I NEVER realized that! How much does that suck?!
I looked at the cream cheese and sour cream in my fridge. They both have sugar!
The website says:
9. Are all Tofutti products vegan?

I posted it but realized after that someone else had posted the same thing earlier.
I just don't have a warm fuzzy feeling when a restaurant cannot confirm what is in their stuff!
I think...
Thanks Pete,
I live about a mile from there I'll have to go check it out!

Does anyone have more local restaurant options for vegans that can be verified?

That is the page so far. I have uploaded the site just so I...
Here is the email I got from them: They cannot guarantee either vegan or veggie!

The Pizza Hut site shows the crusts having Milk as an allergen: http://www.pizzahut.com/menu/allergen.asp
I do agree that it is hypocritical, but at least it is a step in the right direction. First horses then who knows maybe chickens? As far as our Texan president goes I found the most amazing quote...

They are not going to stop. I think if there is even a hint that they can bolster their health claims with some new animal test they'll do it!
The problem is that they are not testing on cats...

The South End is a great area. NODA would be riskier right now but SODA is coming in and in a couple of years it would be a great place. Very earthy, veggie loving! We own a real estate company and...
Hello Charlotte! I would love to open one up in NODA but I sold a restaurant I owned last year and really do not want to get into that again. There are some good options for main stream restaurants...
I hate not getting a reply from a company so I sent them another request stating that I could not resume purchasing their product until I knew for sure that they didn't test. I'll just keep...
No. I got that from one of my friends.
I'm still waiting on my response from POM?

Rob,
Thanks for the link! Charlotte has limited vegan/veggie options. Most people here don't even know what a vegan is...very sad. When they first hear the word they look at you like you are in some...
Thanks for the link! You have quite a bit of information. I'll be checking in on you often for some ideas.
Sheila
I'm working on the restaurant section right now. So far I have started the fast food and chain restaurants. I'm suprised at how helpful the companies have been. One even sent me a 56 page document on...
I think you are right that would be very helpful. I started my research yesterday and found out I have not exactly been as vegan as I thought. Who would ever think that you would have milk...
I have just registered my domain name www.VeganCharlotte.com and am looking for input from vegans on what you would like to see in an online guide.
I have a health and natural food store section...
Thanks everyone for the responses. It's just one of those things that I have a gut feeling saying it's wrong. It's like when I was little and they told me to drink my milk and I knew for some reason...
I went to the dentist today and they told me that I needed to use a fluoride toothpaste or rinse. I am very confused right now. I have been researching this because for some reason I thought fluoride...
I'm just curious to know if anyone has children in school and the school actually offers vegan options on the menu?
The school system my daughter is in has a menu with one vegan option per week...
Pat,
I have not tried it again yet. I can only take so much disappointment in one day! I will try again soon and see how it goes.
