Is Dimsum Dimsum Without Pork?

I make a bad vegetarian.

For starters, I eat meat. Lots of it.

That’s not to say I can’t enjoy the occasional vegetarian meal. Which is how I found myself at the Teapot Vegetarian (and Vegan!) House for lunch.

While waiting for my food, I perused their extensive reading materials that included a Peta pamphlet showing what they do to chickens, cows, and pigs.

If making me give up meat was the aim of the leaflet, it didn’t work as well as making me enjoy my meal just that little bit less. Thanks.

Am I really going to burn in hell for eating that rabbit in a French market in 1997?

If a vegetarian is a vegetarian, he’s noble in saving animal lives. But if a carnivore is a carnivore, well, there’s nothing redeeming about eating meat.

I could try, but I’m pretty sure I make a bad vegetarian.

The dim sum’s too good. And rendered pork fat is poetry in sizzling, tasty motion.
