What is a Vegetarian diet?

A vegetarian diet eliminates meat, poultry, and fish but typically includes dairy, eggs, and plant-based foods. People adopt it for ethical, environmental, or health reasons. This diet emphasizes fruits, vegetables, legumes, grains, nuts, and seeds as key nutrient sources. Vegetarians often get protein from eggs, tofu, beans, and lentils. It can offer health benefits such as reduced risk of heart disease and improved weight management, though attention should be given to nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamin B12. With proper planning, a vegetarian diet can be both nutritionally complete and sustainable.

Great cheese

I've been using this for years in my Mac and cheese before I even had celiac. I've called the manufacturer multiple times and they say velveeta modified food starch is from mostly corn and rarely potato. They say if they ever use wheat (which they haven't in many years), Kraft will Mark it on the label. Gluten free and celiac safe 😊 always check the label!
