It was hard for me to be convincing at such a young age. I admire your parenting and if I am ever a parent, at least based on just what I see here, I hope to be just like you.

Brewer's yeast is a byproduct of the brewing industry. Nutritional yeast is grown especially for human consumption and has a pleasing, nutty-cheesy taste. Red Star is a very popular brand; the "vegetarian support" formula is also enriched with B12.<BR/><BR/>Re. the timing on the cookbook, I'm still writing it so it will be a while. I will let everyone know when I have a better idea of the timeline.Jennifershmoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08663322884550580226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1131977951190361852005-11-14T06:19:00.000-08:002005-11-14T06:19:00.000-08:00I just wanted you to know I am so stealing your id...I just wanted you to know I am so stealing your ideas and passing them off to dd as my own brilliance.

He's still fuzzy on cheese things (crackers, dips) and most baked goods containing dairy, so I'm taking it slow and educating him bit by bit without making a big fuss over things. He knows that the other kids eat meat and he and one other girl are the only vegetarians.<BR/><BR/>As far as the other kids, I think they sometimes ask what he's eating, but they have a "no sharing food" rule in the classroom. He said he told them he doesn't eat animal meat and neither should they (I told him in the future that might be too blunt an approach! lol). His teacher did ask me where I got the cool lunch box. :-)Jennifershmoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08663322884550580226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1131840360040694482005-11-12T16:06:00.000-08:002005-11-12T16:06:00.000-08:00Hi Jennifer.

This may not be the "place to ask" but even though Lil Shmoo has the best lunches so why would he even want to try anyone elses, but does he know differences in vegan/non-veg foods? What about the other school-kids, do they ask or offer him foods? And the teacher, she must love his lunches! I am always curious to know about vegan children during lunchtime at school. Thanks! PS... I am going to try this recipe very very soon. mmm.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1131840161786892762005-11-12T16:02:00.000-08:002005-11-12T16:02:00.000-08:00YAY!

It looks like yellow mashed potato flakes and should be labeled "nutritional yeast." It gives a cheesy flavor. I make macaroni & cheese and nacho cheese with this.
