yes I think it does contain bits of beef.. o well that's too bad :sweat: anway to be sure you should try cheking out the recipe for omurice and the demiglace /demiglass sauce on the lunch queen thread in the japanese drama section.. thtl posted it there a few months ago :mrgreen:

yeah? thanks, i'll check it out. i'm a foodie through and through, so even though i don't eat meat, i'm still curious about ingredients, techniques :dotdotdot:

souka.. then you better check it out.. he uploaded it so you need to download it first :dancing:

@lilly: If there was too much ketchup, then the cook at that restaurant probably ruined the taste of the actual dish. Japanese cuisine is all about balance and visually I haven't seen an omurice that looks like it has an overwhelming amount of ketchup.

But then... who knows? :sweat:

true. i'll have to try it at another restaurant. just haven't seen it anywhere in florida except at this place. i'll have to keep searching.

But the outer egg omelet is okay for you to eat?

I guess I should look up "vegetarian" in Wiki... :sweat:

There are different stages of vegetarian allowing milk, egg, etc. I'm a "meat is allowed" vegetarian. :mrgreen:

that cracks me up :rofl:

nice one. :hehe:

a coworker of mine calls me "veggie" at work. and i respond. :shakehead:

as being a vegetarian, there are many different levels, as bmwracer mentioned. being "vegan" restricts any animal by-products, too, including honey and anything containing gelatin. i heard there's also fruitarians who only eat fruits and nuts, because they can be taken from the plants without harming them. pretty radical types.

i still eat fish occasionally, so i guess you can call me a pescetarian and not a true vegetarian. i just say i'm vegetarian because it's easier to understand.

souka.. I don't think I'll last a day only eating veggies.. anyway.. I think omurice also have chicken bits.. so you also eat chicken?

If she ate chicken, I doubt she could call herself a Vegetarian... :sweat:

I'm sure you could get Omurice wtihout chicken tho, right? I mean, the main stars of that dish are the egg and rice... :sweat:

well chicken is considered as half meat though like fish.. but i guess wynter is right omurice is all about the egg and the rice :bonk:

Are you sure about that? Last time I checked Chickens were 100% meat product... :dotdotdot:

the last time i checked it's half meat.. and that's like a few years back.. so maybe it's pure meat now :beatyou:

Then that's a weird chicken... :beaten:

All poultry is considered meat, I would think... Any animal for that matter.

What's better than a good meal?

A free good meal. :victory: :beaten: :hehe:

actually, i consider any type of animal as meat. chicken is included as what i term as "land meat" and seafood as "sea meat."

ultimately, if you do eat meat, just make sure you do so with a good helping of vegetables and fruits. follow the FDA's recommendation of "five a day" and you should have less health problems.

**sorry, i like to go on and on about health because i'm a nurse. gomen :bow:
