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...

Obvs humans are the top of the food chain for a reason. what purpose to livestock serve other than to feed us? that's what I'll never understand about vegetarian/ vegan. I get that it's a "personal choice" but why? where is the logic behind it? your body needs those essential proteins and nutrients meat provides.

1) You should have read it. 2) Props for sticking to something like that for so long. 3) I still think meat is fan-*******-tastic though.

I'm sorry but...who cares? I'd be more afraid if the label said "This product contains high levels of melamine" or something like that. It's not gonna kill you...

It's your subconscious' way of telling your body it needs meat!

You murderer!!!!!! You helped kill a cow, how could you do such a thing? On the other hand, I bet it was the best tasting meal you've had in 7 years...

A lot of meals that are considered "Vegetarian" actually have some sort of meat product in them. McDonalds fries had beef "juice" in it and they got a whole lot of abuse for it. I don't think you deserved it, but it will teach you to read labels from now on. I'm a meat eater but I believe in organic and free range meat. Meat only has to be cruel if you let it be.

you really have to read the ingredients on everything if you have and special dietary requirements. take this as a lesson and constant reminder to start.
