If so why don't you eat as the others?
Whenever i post pictures of my food, i always seem to get comments about either im eating too little or too much. Or if i eat the same as others. Or why i dont eat rice or pasta (which i infact do.) etc
And to answer your question: 70% of the time, no we dont eat the same thing. Why? Because my mum, step dad and I all move in different circles. When it comes to lunch, i usually eat lunch in school - somedays i come home to eat lunch if i have a long break or a lesson has been cancelled, and either my mum has already eaten lunch or is going to eat later. So i just fix myself some lunch, and usually i have leftovers anyway. During the weekend sometimes we eat lunch together, but usually i eat lunch before my parents because i get up around 8am, whilst they might not get up until around 11, so they've only just eaten breakfast by the time im eating lunch ;)
And with dinners its pretty much the same thing. My mum works evenings, so she usually eats dinner early. I dont come home until around 5-7pm each day and i usually eat a snack when i come home so might not eat dinner until around 8 or 9pm (and a night snack afterwards of course :)), and my step dad comes home around 6 and eats dinner directly then. Its just sort of how it is in my house. Usually on Fridays and during the weekend we try to eat dinner together.
What we eat.... Well it pretty much the same, in different amounts etc Whenever i eat dinner on my own or if my parents are making something like quorn sausages then i usually make chicken (as my parents are vegetarians). Otherwise we all eat fish, quorn products etc We mainly eat quinoa, beans, rice. And when they make potatoes i make sweet potatoes (as i dont like normal potatoes).
My parents have begun making lots of new vegetarian recipes. SO they make big batches and then put into the freezer so we all go and take from that during the week for lunches and dinners :)
Thats how it is in my house and its just because of how our schedules are.
Also now when i have alot of studying and work to do i usually sit infront of the computer and study or reply to emails while eating lunch or dinner. :)
Remember that it is healthy and normal to eat meals with others - you shouldnt lock yourself away and eat on your own.


Do vegetarians eat fish, I mean that still is considered meat, or not? Maybe there are many different types of vegetarianism, just askin' out of curiosity.... its a great post btw
ReplyDeleteNo they dont... eating fish but not red meat or chicken then you're a pescatarian :)
DeleteYou said in your post your parents are vegetarians and you all eat fish, that's where I got a little confused :)
DeleteAhh ok... well i guess they're pescatarians then :) haha
