I guess there just weren't really...Hey Maxine!<br /><br />I guess there just weren't really many vegetarians at all then! I've ever heard any pre-60s mention of being vegetarian, definitely not for moral reasons.<br /><br />You're right about growning beans - I'm lazy, I suppose I could do a lot of that. The thing I think would be difficult would be protein... I eat a lot of things like couscous and quinoa and soya products, plus man-made things like quorn - and I don't think any of that was available back then, war or no war!<br /><br />I've been away for a few days, looking forward to catching up with your blog this weekend.<br /><br />Emy<br />xxxHighball Emyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178849870865569933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757712784527048989.post-65462984473518869352012-02-10T06:54:41.987-08:002012-02-10T06:54:41.987-08:00Sounds like you're doing well and the Welsh Ra...Sounds like you're doing well and the Welsh Rarebit sounds yummy!

I don't really know enough about a veggie diet to know what would be needed to be 'healthy' but it would be interesting to find out how vegetarians coped with rationing wouldn't it?<br /><br />Maxine xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16175747752387425591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757712784527048989.post-16054745975817579622012-02-09T05:38:49.587-08:002012-02-09T05:38:49.587-08:00Really interesting to read how you're managing...Really interesting to read how you're managing on your rations diet! I don't think I could ever do it because I don't eat meat or fish, and the rations don't really allow enough to be a healthy vegetarian...! Love reading your blog, anyway.<br /><br />Emy<br />xxxHighball Emyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178849870865569933noreply@blogger.com
