I want to eat grilled vegan
Come here to Argentina, where the last of the vegetarians and vegans died off several years ago. Now I can go to the butcher and nobody looks twice when he starts hacksawing me off a piece of cow hanging next to him. Where during christmas week, a guy got on the bus next to me with an entire skinned chivo (goat, head included) wrapped in plastic wrap, ready for the asado (bbq). nobody stared. when you order a steak, you get fkn a steak. no fancy side dishes or garnished included,dammit. meat on a plate.
this is meat eatin' country dammit!
Disregarding Argentina’s astronomical rates of bowel cancer and the hog-like physique of much of the populace, as a vegetarian I ate better in rural Argentina and Chile than in rural Wyoming and Utah.Quote:

CARNE!!!!! Come Asado o morti!!!
Actually, it was in Patagonia. The fresh vegetables were anything but and the restaurants were obviously using frozen produce, they always had a tasty, if cheese laden, pasta or similar item. Salads were, um, creative? Lentils and shredded carrots covered in oil was popular. In fairness, I did eat a lot of pizza too. Food wise, the most appalling thing I encountered was the lack of real coffee. Seriously, what the fuck it up with the Nescafe? I’d rather drink rendered beef fat.
Patagonia would be hell for vegans, but for vegetarians that eat cheese and eggs, it is a pretty easy place to travel and you’ll eat better there than the white trash corners of America. I flew in and out of Santiago, there I ate at an all vegetarian restaurant that was on par with a similarly priced establishment in San Francisco.
