1.
We have to explain that we don't take a break from being vegetarian at the holidays. (really-you don't eat meat? But today is special!)
2.
People tend to laugh at our plate of food
(Tofurkey looks gross-how does it taste?) Of course they follow it up with you sure you don't want turkey?
3.
We tend to get offered food with meat broths, gravy and meat pieces floating in it. (You can just eat around the meat on your plate-or gravy is not a solid food so it is ok)
4.
People are convinced that we are still hungry. (Was that enough for you? I won't tell anyone if you sneak some turkey)
5.
The worst case scenario…not being invited to dinner because…you won't eat turkey. (You don't eat turkey-so we thought that you did not celebrate Thanksgiving)
