Can You Marry A Vegetarian? by Princek12(m): 10:02pm On May 29, 2011
I like goat meat, turkey, cow leg, tripe, liver, hen, guinea fowl, shrimps, stock fish, smoked fish, Suya, and bush meat, to mention a few. Marrying a vegetarian will not work for me, as it can be a big strain on the marriage if one party loves all of the above meats while the other doesn't. How in the hell will I marry a woman who will most likely not cook meat for me.

Can you imagine egusi soup without cow leg and stockfish? Chei! Abeg make vegetarian woman carry go.

@ ops
your question Can you marry a vegetarian?'
answer
yes
that does not mean that i have to become a vegetarian

look on it from the bright side, you'll have double the portion of meat at meal times
and a balanced diet from the mixture of vegetables

Marriage is about two different people coming together. If our differences start from the kind of food we eat. Our marriage is doomed to fail from the get-go. Look at this dialogue:

Husband: What is wrong with this girl? She can't even cook me a nice dish with chicken or fish.
Wife: He is always complaining about everything I do, worse still he wants me to be part of the "murder" of animals.

most people taste food for seasoning purposes.

how does a vegetarian - cook for a meat eater and not do taste tests? to sample what she will feed her husband/mate/bf? that's odd

also - foreigners - who used to be meat eaters and turn to vegetarians for health reasons will still cook meat for those in the house.

i know quite a few women who will cook meat here and not eat it because they changed their eating habits
Re: Can You Marry A Vegetarian? by MrsChima1(f): 10:49pm On May 30, 2011
OP,

It is not rocket scientist and the only difference is your partner will not want meat in their diet. It is not that complicated and I wouldn't have a problem if my husband didn't want to eat meat.

No big deal. cool

It is just interesting that some vegetarians are so strict that they would not even want to use the same pot that is used to cook meat to cook their food. Also it will not be fun if the husband and wife cannot enjoy a meal together. Further, how will the wife cook for her husband when she cannot taste the food? How will she know if the soup has sufficient salt, or if it has insufficient salt?

If vegetarians love animals that much, how come they eat their foods?
