I just had sushi. I figured that imitation crab meat was made of, like, soy - so it would definitely fall in line with my new vegetarianism. Turns out that imitation crab meat is actually made of pollock, a mildly fishy tasting fish, which apparently makes it ideal for sushi. Not cool, Panda Express. Your use of the word "imitation" is very ambiguous. Work on that.
But, to be fair, I did check the ingredients post-purchase but pre-consumption. I could have not eaten the sushi. But then I would have wasted $5.95. And I'm not willing to go that far for my principles yet. I figure it's excusable. I've only been veg for a couple of weeks.
Funny though, because last night I had a dream that I ate meat. But in my dream it wasn't a (near) accident like it was today - I was eating beef in my kitchen and thoroughly enjoying it, saying that it was OK, I just wouldn't tell anyone about it.
You got me this time, sushi from the cafe downstairs. Never again.
Ew. I just googled 'pollack', and the pictures that came up gave me the shivers and half-gag. Vegetarianism confirmed.
