Subject:      Camping out Veggy style. Any vegetarians on this list?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

My wife and I are almost vegan...occassionally I have cheese and ice cream...she has eggs.
We just finished a 2-month summer trip cross country.  We used a book called the Tofu Tollbooth to locate stores to buy veg-friendly items.

Generally we cooked seitan with wild rice, tofu with a vegetable, and refried beans and safron rice.  For lunch sandwhiches of tofurky and phoney baloney
with rice cheese and lettuce.  We tried to keep to 2 pot meals.
We had the added problem of bringing the dog so we couldn't eat out a lot.
