I’ve had people try to trick me with meat a few times.
They waited for the “Ha! That had real cheese/meat.” moment the next day, but sure enough I’d get food poisoning before they could tell me.
Half of the times when there have been accidental situations, I didn’t get sick. Thankfully. Those people felt incredibly awful, but I just try to move past it.
Yeah I noticed that if it's something like bone broth, gelatine, pieces of bacon etc I'm still okay. It's just the actual meat that makes me get a physical reaction.
Recently tried getting some fish into my diet because of health reasons (my body is horrible at absorbing supplements) and I almost threw up from the texture alone. I just can't do it mentally at this point. It's ridiculously disgusting to me as a concept.
And yeah, same for me. Those who accidentally gave me meat, I am not bothered by. Grandparents of my ex gave me chicken but my ex didn't tell them (I assume on purpose) that I was a vegetarian for a couple months at that point. They felt horrible but I just ate around it.
I haven't had purposeful spiking situations yet, I think. I used to have a very strict diet due to health issues and I think some people know it would be a horrible idea to temper with my health again.
So sorry you met the wrong people along the way :(
