Hi, I am new to the forum.
I would like to get some advice as to being misled into eating meat,I have not eaten meat for 20 years plus and have been informed by our local cafe (they know I am veggy) that they have been putting meat into my soups each day for weeks, when I complaine I was told I was a '*** vegetarian' has anyone had a similar experience? |

I would get trading standards on them. You could ask at the citizen's advice beauro if it is possible to take legal action.
I think it's possible to get them under discrimination laws, failing that, I'm pritty sure it's one count of common assault per day under English law (I know using flash bulb on someone in public can be, so this should be). There are also probably food tampering or spiking laws.
This is a personal nightmare of mine. Please don't let it slide. Do all you can to prosecute them for it. People think they can get away with pushing us around. |

Thank you for your support, being ostracised and violated is bad enough without being humiliated. You are quite correct and I will be bringing this matter to a conclusion. I will keep you posted. x |

Jeez that is DISGUSTING! I would tell everyone you know and get them to go in individually when they are BUSY and state as loudly as possible that they will no longer eat there as they have heard what they do to their vegetarian customers. Hit them where it hurts... IN THE TILL. I would defo get trading standards involved. As Tigerwolf said... please do not let it go. They deserve to pay for it one way or another. It makes me wonder what else they put in peoples food when they feel like it?Good luck with it. |

It really is a very grave issue. It is a severe encroachment on a persons right to what he decides to eat. You have done the right thing by choosing this forum to go public with your disgust. |

hello all,
Yes, I agree that we should have a choice in what we want to eat. So many places do not disclose what is really in the food.
Don't you hate it when you are allergic to something, then they will not even tell you if it is in the dish you want to order? Like in a Chinese food place where most use MSG and it makes me quite ill.
