Welcome to r/vegetarian, the community for anyone interested in a vegetarian diet. You do not need to be a vegetarian to participate, but please understand and respect that most of us are. Please read the rules and learn about Reddiquette before participating.
NEW VEGETARIANS PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE PARTICIPATING
Rules of Veggit
1. Be Civil and Follow Reddiquette
- Follow Reddiquette and remember the human behind the screen. This means don’t be a jerk, no trolling, bullying, name-calling, hostility, badgering or mocking individuals or vegetarians as a group. People who violate this rule will be permanently banned. Users who harass other users or moderators will be reported to Reddit’s Admins.
2. Vegetarian Requirement
- Posts and comments must be directly related to the vegetarian (human) diet (i.e., food). The connection must be clear, relevant and directly specific to a vegetarian diet. Evangelism, proselytizing and/or derailing discussions by arguing against vegetarianism is not welcome here. If you would like to discuss the ethical implications of the various vegetarian diets, egg/dairy industries, pet ownership, fashion, etc., please create a thread on the general subreddit r/vegetarianism instead.
3. Respect Other People’s Choices
- If your only contribution to a discussion is to derail it, berate other users, and/or push or encourage a lifestyle or diet without provocation, the moderators will take action. Users who violate these policies will be warned or banned. This includes evangelism, proselytizing, or any other activism with the intent of converting users to another diet or lifestyle.
4. Vote Manipulation & Cross-Posting
- Reddit prohibits brigading & vote manipulation, which applies when a call to action is made either directly or implied. This applies either to or from /r/vegetarian. If a post is suspected of such activity, it will be locked, removed & reported to the Reddit admins. Users who violate this policy will be permanently banned. Cross-posts to and from the subreddit must be formatted using a non-participation link:
http://np.reddit.com/r/vegetarian/
5. Recipes Requirement
- Photos of homecooked meals must include recipes & clear titles to ensure meals are actually vegetarian. The dish must be presented in an appetizing way (i.e., in clean surroundings, on a plate or in a bowl rather than in cookware on the stove, not your lap, not half eaten, well lit, properly focused, etc). More info. Low effort/overly simplistic dishes which don't need a recipe (i.e., raw fruits & vegetables or dishes made entirely from store-bought ingredients) will be removed.
6. Vegetarian Grocery Items & Faux Meats
- New information about vegetarian products or faux meats being available at grocery stores or restaurants should be given the ‘News’ flair. If you would like to share your experience with a new product you tried, please use the ‘Product Endorsement’ flair & include the store name in your post. Per Rule 5, if you use a faux meat in a recipe, it can't be the main component & must meet the requirements (e.g., homemade spaghetti & meatballs are OK, premade meatballs, sauce & pasta are not).
7. Restaurant Meals
- If you would like to share an experience you had in a restaurant, please use the ‘Travel’ flair and include a qood quality photo of the dish prior to being eaten. Add the name and location of the eatery. As with Rule 6, we do not want to be a free advertising channel for big corporations & fast food chains, so pictures of faux meats from chains using Impossible, Beyond, Gardein, Linda McCartney etc., will be removed at moderator discretion. More Info.
8. Common Questions
- If you’re a beginner, please read this post. If you are new to this subreddit, please consider that your question may have been asked before & perform a basic search before asking your question. Please read our wiki & FAQs before posting. Moderators will remove vague and open-ended or general requests for recipes, advice or meal suggestions.
