To be fair I think it's pretty bloody presumptuous to inflict ones personal dietary choices on another person.
If not downright rude.

Far out its World War Meat in here! 
Seriously tho, can you say that your opinion is humble when it is that someone is an ungrateful whinger?

My comment stands. It was the OP's unsubstantiated interpretation of the lady's intentions that is the problem here.
It is only the OP's version of events that we are getting here.
Maybe:
1. she did not know that the restaurant was vegetarian; and
2. it was easier to stop in one place.

Awesome band, if not a little over the top at times.
[h=1]PROPAGANDHI[/h][h=3]"Nailing Descartes To The Wall/(Liquid) Meat Is Still Murder"
I speak outside what is recognized as the border between "reason" and "insanity".[/h]But I consider it a measure of my humanity to be written off
by the living graves of a billion murdered lives.
And I'm not ashamed of my recurring dreams about me and a gun and a different species
(hint: starts with "h" and rhymes with "Neuman's")
of carnage strewn about the stockyards, the factories and farms.
Still I know as well as anyone that it does less good
than harm to be this honest with a conscience eased by lies.
But you cannot deny that meat is still murder.
Dairy is still rape.
And I'm still as stupid as anyone, but I know my mistakes.
I have recognized one form of oppression, now I recognize the rest.
And life's too short to make another's shorter- (animal liberation now!).

No doubt... I suppose Ignorance is Bliss to certain extent, selective bliss is stupid though.. Being progressive is hard to live with. I love nature and all it's animals. (except fairies and hipster.. JKs again.) But I am so logical I see both sides of the argument.

Nope. What is rude is to winge about the type of food you are lucky enough to eat, in a world where people are starving (to dead).

I want to be with you, but let's not confuse association with causation. OP's frustration with the food provided, is not causing anyone to starve.
I have up say, and this has happened to me, that if MY mate had went to get food for me, knowing I'm vegan, and intentionally bought back meat and dairy dishes, I'd be a little pissed. I wouldn't have the option to just suck it up, although you might think I did have that option.
I understand where your coming from but I don't think that example is a good one. Buying meat for a Vegetarian is nothing like buying a vegetable only dish for a meat eater. Meat eaters eat vegetables so it doesn't hurt them to eat a meal without meat or go against any beliefs. Starving people or not I wouldn't expect a Veggo to eat meat whereas I would expect a meat eater to just eat the meal provided.

Good point. I was rushing to get out the door and did not make the point clear.
The point was that he had food that he could eat. It was just not his preference. That is a trivial complaint.
No causation between his actions and starvation was intended.
Indeed. That was the second point. The OP made unsubstantiated claims of intention.
This amounts to egocentrism and cognitive distortion: "I think it is true, therefore it must be true."

Well you have a conveniant stand on any subject put forward & I didnt say you did touch it gooba goat.
Yeah, and that guy seems to be a real authority on all things..........
Look, I could do a search on the web and find plenty of arguments that state the opposite like this http://www.muscleandstrength.com/supplements/ingredients/soy-protein.html
Not only that, but what this bikejames says are the down sides of soy protein have not been proven scientifically. Its all a bit of hype.
I started using the Soy Protein after night rides when I don't want a big meal. What I do know is that since using it I have definitely gotten much stronger. I have been riding MTB for 20 years and the strength increase has been more dramatic than in the past when I haven't used it.
It works for me, I'm not trying to convert anyone to using it. I just made a statement refuting the notion that meat is needed for recovery.

Not a convenient stand, an impartial stand. I just don't believe either side of the arguement just because someone on the interweb says it so.
I have nothing against proteins and supplements, I just have no use for them, laddergoat.
