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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
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, 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 was eating Jell-O and was reading a fact website, when I read that gelatin is made from the collagen in cow or pig bones. I'm vegetarian. FML
Today, I accidentally bought chicken fingers. I couldn't even make it two days as a vegetarian. FML
Today, after having been a vegetarian for 8 years because I'm opposed to cruelty to animals, I lost a bet and had to eat a whole cheeseburger. I loved it. FML
Today, I found a bone in my sandwich. It was a veggie burger. FML
Today, I opened up a can of tomato soup I'd taken from my parents' house recently. After eating the whole can, I started feeling a little off, so I checked the expiration date. It expired 12 years ago. FML
Today, I made a tasty, healthy plant-based lunch for my family. They ate a few bites, spat it out, and then went to McDonald's "to eat real food, you know, food with meat in it." FML
Today, I defended the dried up things in the cup noodles as being real vegetables, just so that it would appear that I do actually eat vegetables. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Sorry darling, but you ARE supposed to read the ingredients before you buy it. It's no different than if you were allergic to something. ALWAYS read the ingredients if you choose not to eat certain things or cannot, for the sake of your health.

most vegetarians look at the ingredients before eating the food...

Guess what? Unless crappy soup converted you back to omnivorism, you're still a vegetarian. For future reference, there is a reason why Campbell's has 'Vegetable Soup' and '*Vegetarian* Vegetable Soup' :)

I think you meant carnivorism. if that's a word.
zargon 1
No, omnivorism is the correct word here. Carnivorism is strictly meat-only (carn: flesh, vore: eat, ism: doctrine) whereas omnivorism is meat and plant (omni: all). On a related note, a few hundred Greek and Latin roots will do a lot for your ability to understand English words you've never seen before.

Lmfaooo, first of all it aint gon kill you, I understand u vegetarians have different morals and all but its the cycle of life..... Get the **** over it.

13, it isn't going to kill her, but I'd be pretty bummed out if I were a veggiehead for 7 years and had some form of animal. You can't exactly say it's the circle of life and to get over it.

19- I think she just did say it and I agree with her

Damn comment bug. 22, it's just disrespectful. You wouldn't tell a religious person, 'Stop praying! Jesus died, get over it. It's the cycle of life.' It's something they believe in, and deeply enough if she did it for 7 years. I'm not saying she didn't deserve it. She did. She should have read the labels, but you can't just trash on other people's belief system because it doesn't conform to your own. Whilst it may not be such a bad thing to eat meat for you, it might have been quite devastating for the OP.

#22 Yeah, and the only reason you did that is because meat-eating is so important to you that you agree with anything some idiot says as long as it supports this very important part of your life.

Hm, I'm sorry but YDI. If you've been a vegetarian for seven years you should know to always check the labels first. But as a fellow vegetarian I'll give you a FYL too, because I know you can feel really bad about it when that happens.

get yourself an education so you can comprehend things like reading labels and using correct grammar.

I never understood people who make comments like this, well yeah their life isn't over - but this website is about little things that ruin our day or whatever. It's not about stuff like, "Today I had to watch my family get raped and then get dismembered by a chainsaw. FML."
