I feel your pain, and I'm concerned about someone who works at a bakery not knowing where ingredients came from.

I'm not even vegetarian but I worked at a vegan/vegetarian restaurant where random people would come in to complain we didn't have any meat on the menu. Like legit walk up to the host stand, pick up a menu, shout "Is there any meat?" and leave in a huff when we tell them no.

Their loss. I made a kick ass curry and put black bean burgers on the menu.

It’s pretty concerning, you’re right. I actually wrote a list of things that are vegan and vegetarian to keep in the back because some of my coworkers would give random answers when people asked about them (and we for some reason have chicken fat in our omelettes, so they seem vegetarian but aren’t).
