I guess I mean people calling stuff vegetarian needlessly is pretentious, like bragging about making a vegetarian meal when it's really just a meal without meat in it. Most people probably eat a lot more meat-free meals than they really realise. (mac 'n' cheese for example), (Though I realise meat-free doesn't necessarily mean vegetarian). It seems to be labelling stuff just for the sake of labels, which is a human habit I don't like one little bit. I'm quite sure I'm not explaining my thoughts clearly at all here ><

Hmm, I guess I tend to subconsciously think of "vegetarian" dishes as those that would traditionally have had meat in them, and the meat had been replaced with an alternative. Otherwise, I don't differentiate between dishes in that way. Whether something has meat in it or not doesn't affect the way I categorise it. I think of things by the meals they are eaten as. Interesting, never realised that before :O
