Re: [Vegetarian Society of East TN] Re: VSET Social on Wed. Jan 14th

Sorry about that.  I have to take the blame for posting the menu to the website.  It was sent to me with information to post on the website for the dinner social.  I wasn't thinking and posted the entire menu. 
 
I have since modified it and (hopefully) removed all traces of meat products.

Subject: [Vegetarian Society of East TN] Re: VSET Social on Wed. Jan 14th

Dear Colleagues in Non-harming and Health,

Please explain why a vegetarian society would list menu items that involve animal flesh?   I can be flexible and understand folks having a social in a place that has both veg and non veg dishes but can't  understand the advertisement of things that are counter to what a vegetarian society represents.

Am I missing something here?
