Should you serve hamburgers or cheese pizza to a vegetarian elf?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Vegetarians do not eat meat. Hamburgers are made from ground beef (meat). Cheese pizza would be a better choice.

Note: there is no such thing as an "elf", not really. So it's hard to give them any sort of food.

Can you train a cat to be a vegetarian?

Why are Jains vegetarian?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Jains believe in ahimsa, or nonviolence. To stop the cycle of reincarnation, Jains believe that they must follow the path of ahimsa. If they do not behave as their religion dictates, they believe that their next life could be as a lower animal. Thus they do not kill any animal because it could have been their ancestor, etc. But primarily, because they believe in preventing the suffering of all who feel pain.

Why are some animals vegetarian?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Plants are far more abundant on the Earth than animals, so it is much easier for a large animal needing a lot of food to obtain that food from plant sources than from animal sources. However, the very largest animals, baleen whales, actually eat tiny sea creatures from the animal kingdom. They strain this "krill" from the seawater with the baleen in their mouths which they have in place of teeth. Krill is mainly baby shrimp.

On land, small animals can scurry about and be hard to catch, but plants hold still, so a large and clumsy grazing animal can fill up on plants without investing a lot of energy in catching its prey. Some large land animals, such as bears, will catch and eat other large land animals when they are available.

In the sea, there are giant sharks, seals, toothed whales, and squid which are carnivorous, so not all giant creatures are vegetarians. However, large fierce predators are rare compared to grazing animals.

Does vegetarian vegetable soup require refrigeration for food safety purposes?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It is not how "long" but more as the "temperature" of the soup. If the soup falls between the range of 41°F (5°C) - 135°F (57°C) than bacterial growth can occur. This is according to FDA Food Code. This is also a standard to any types of food!

Keep colds food COLD, and hot foods HOT!

Is Campbell's chunky savory vegetable soup vegetarian?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It may contain chicken or beef broth, which is not vegetarian to most vegetarians.

Vegetarians should check the label, but keep in mind that bouillon is not vegetarian. If it is vegetarian, these ingredients will not be listed.

Note: The regular (not the "healthy") version of Campbell's Chunky Savory Vegetable appears to be vegetarian. Ingredients are: water, carrots, potatoes, celery, tmato puree, peas, green beans, diced tomatoes in tomato juice, corn, modified food starch, salt, vegetable extract, high fructose corn syrup, hydrolized wheat gluten, dehydrated onions, flavoring, spice. "Flavoring" could be ambiguous.

The "Healthy Request" version of the same soup contains beef fat, however.
