Today, I saw my mom sneaking meat into her spaghetti sauce. She told me she sneaks meat into most of the food she cooks. I've been a vegetarian for 8 years. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that the so-called vegetarian soy sauce my mom has made for me several times has minced meat in it. FML
Today, I was eating Campbell's vegetable soup. Halfway through, I started to read the ingredients and found beef broth. I have been a vegetarian for seven years. FML
Today, after being a vegetarian for 5 years, I found out that my boyfriend of 2 years has secretly been feeding me meat. His reason is that he thinks it's "funny" that I still call myself a vegetarian afterwards. FML
Today, I've been a vegan for a year. It's also the day that I met my dad's new best friend, who happens to be a retired butcher. They tried to pull an intervention on me for not "being sensible" by eating meat. FML
Today, my daughter said she wanted to be vegetarian like me. Beaming with pride, I made her plant-based burgers for dinner. She took one bite, screamed, "EW!" and started crying and begging for beef burgers. FML
Today, my vegetarian girlfriend put some ghost pepper hot sauce on my steak to teach me a "lesson" about eating meat. FML
Today, when I told my family I was a vegetarian, I expected them to make fun of me because that's just my family. But what I wasn't expecting was my dad to use raw meat as a puppet and make it say, "Eat me! Eat me!" then throw it at my face. FML
Today, while spooning my spouse, I was awakened in the wee hours by a huge, junk-rattling fart. This has happened numerous times since she became a vegetarian. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house for dinner with his family. His mom cooked up a steak dinner, except that I'm a vegan, but trying to be a good girlfriend, I forced it down. Upon his mother finding out I was a vegan, she called me "disloyal to my beliefs." FML
Today, I took my girlfriend out to a vegetarian-friendly restaurant. She ordered shrimp fettuccine, and I asked why. She slowly explained to me that vegetarians can eat shrimp, then muttered that she now knows who has the brains in our relationship. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm no vegetarian, probably never will be, but I do respect everybody who is one. If they do not eat meat, that's their choice. More meat for me. They'll have to accept that I do eat meat. Maybe even right next to them. It sucks your mom is being so cruel to you. The least she could do is tell you so you can choose to eat it or make your own dinner.

a) That's hilarious. b) @ everyone that's saying the OP would notice the first hint of meat after being vegetarian for so long: you haven't really thought that through have you? Obviously she's been doing it the whole time, so that taste/smell will be the norm to them. c) That's HILARIOUS. d) It's also kinda mean, and disrespectful on the mother's part. My girlfriend of 2 years was vegetarian, and I changed the way I lived around that even though I disagreed with her choice. Despite my disagreement: it's her choice, not mine.

i eat vegetarian. I started getting sick when meat is in the food, as in vomiting a few times. So i stopped eating meat about 3 years ago. I still eat cheese and eggs. What you eat is your own choice.

Apparently, you haven't.

Vegetarians are generally self righteous douchebags, and you have to realize that you can't demand that someone cooking you a free meal cater to your preferences. Just don't eat your mom's cooking, and quit whining.

i guess you never really were a vegetarian so much for saving our furry friends. all i hope is that your mom is nothing like my roommate and is actually sneaking dog meat. long story she's from china.

BTW, #57 total bullshit. Only the poorest of poor in China are forced to eat dog, they wouldn't have the money to go to school.

@50 There is no such thing as a distinctive 'vegetarian meal' (well, a certain taste associated with one anyway). I mean a fruit bowl is technically vegetarian, but it isn't representative of the taste of vegetarian dishes/meals/whatever as a whole. Whereas meat has a certain distinctive taste that non-vegetarians are pretty much used to until they haven't eaten it for a reasonably long period of time, when it becomes easy to spot. And some meat doesn't have a very strong taste anyhow, it'd be easy enough to disguise it in heavily spiced food for someone like the OP who's had it slipped into their meals constantly....
