Dearest north street deli counter worker: How close do veggie and chicken sound? Not very fucking close now DO THEY. When I say veggie samosa I most certainly do not mean chicken. My veggie belly and heart are in shambles and YOU are to blame! Not trying to be a veg-head prude… just pay more attention next time PLEASE! —Sad Vegan

You ate the whole thing before you figured out there was chicken in it? Are you fucking stupid?
Did you wash it down with a pitcher of beer that was only supposed to be a single bottle?
You could always complain to the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal that you were the victim of a hate crime^^^
Well, I’m pretty damned sure the chicken hated it.
quel dommage

Could have been worse, could have been “mock” chicken. Seriously though, damage is done, go back and complain, maybe barf in their “returns” dept.
Dear Vag, you should have parted it before entering ’cause ya never know what lurks beneath.
“iseewhatyoudidthere.jpg” heh, clever
I don’t feel particularly sympathetic, but I can sort of relate — I can’t eat 80% of food that’s out there without feeling like crap for days so when someone screws up I get a bit annoyed. Butttt… I dunno, you probably should’ve checked before you ate. You shouldn’t HAVE to, but better to be safe than sorry. I always check to make sure my trigger foods are not on or in things I order. And that’s just what you have to do if you have dietary restrictions.
I might be in the “right” when I say I shouldn’t have to check, but the “right” can sometimes bring some nasty consequences, so I’d rather suck it up and check than end up in bed for two days because my sandwich had green peppers on them when I ordered it without or asked if there were any on there and am told there isn’t (because yes, it’s that bad with me).
At a grocery store in Tantallon, I asked deli staff if the samosas there were meat or veg and they had no idea what I was talking about. I bought a couple and it was one of each. Next time I was in, I told them and suggested they separate and label them because it matters to a lot of people. That was about a year ago and nothing’s been done. Sigh.
You aren’t much of a vegan if you ate it and didn’t notice there was chicken in it…D’OH!!!!
Dearest Sad Vegan: How close do veggie and chicken taste? Not very fucking close now DO THEY. So why the hell wouldn’t you spit it out after the first bite and request a replacement samosa? Your veggie belly and heart are in shambles and YOU are to blame! Just pay more attention next time PLEASE!
First bite should have flagged you, OP – then you should have dropped to the floor in convulsions while frantically pointing at the offending samosa. Jez, some people have no sense of drama.

Holy fuck, get your ass to the ER before you die. Fuck, get over yourself already.
holy fuck, the world just ended for you. ain’t that a fucking crying shame. and do i personally care? not a fucking bit.
Don’t blame the deli-counter worker. They look exactly the same. Maybe someone put a chicken one in the veggie pile by mistake.
I was reading a National Geo the other day seems we’re about to hit 7 billion humans on the planet…the better news is there’s already approximately 70 billion chickens !
THe species is in no danger because you ate a small part of one !
Get over yourself.
..yea i’m still try’n to figure how you ate the whole thing without noticing ..and at what point did you finally notice..fucking vegans..
Vegans piss me off. Bunch of self-entitled bastards!

I’m gonna play devil’s advocate here and state that, if I ordered something to explicitly exclude a certain food, I’d be pretty darn pissed off too if they fucked up (in my case, though, it’s more about getting sick and feeling like crap than being a pain in the ass about a preference). Maybe OP has an intolerance to chicken? (unlikely, but it *can* happen). When I couldn’t tolerate whey and caesin proteins I’d have to be vigilant about being explicit about the fact that they had to be SURE there was neither in the foods I was eating because I would go through torture if I ate it. The same goes for bars, as well. I’ll order a vodka seven with DIET 7up and often I’ll be given regular 7up because bar tenders just think I’m being a pain in the ass. After getting regular 7up one to many fucking times I started saying “are you SURE this is diet? I’m diabetic and I have to drink diet” and on more than one occasion the bar tender has gone and dumped the drink out and given me the correct drink.
I’m sure OP’s just being a pain in the ass here, but sometimes food fuck ups CAN be a really big deal. And sometimes the ingredient is invisible and you can’t tell until you have a reaction. I was assured once that the soy cheese slice at one restaurant didn’t have any milk proteins in it… turns out it did and I spend three days home from classes because I got so sick.
PK, there’s a difference between maybe a spice or a condiment or something small being placed into a sandwich as opposed to a big hunk of chicken.
Maybe OP took a bite and then was all “oh shit” and swallowed? Or maybe she/he’s complaining because they were disappointed because they didn’t get to eat the samosa?
Sometimes I bring lunch back to my office and if I’ve hauled my butt up to SGR to forage for food and come back to my office to eat it, there’s no way I can get back up there to exchange it.
And when you’re not used to eating something, suddenly introducing it can be rough on the system.
On my last monthly “eat whatever I want” day, I decided on a mcgriddle for breakfast… I ordered sausage and they gave me bacon. 🙁 I was disappointed, but I couldn’t do anything about it. I mean. I like the bacon but… the sausage… I’d give up my cat for that sausage. Mmm!
(I’m not saying this is bitch-worthy, just playin’ devil’s advocate here, cause that’s the kind of day it is ;))
I think the OB is to blame for their stomach being sore. He/she wouldn’t have this problem if they weren’t a stupid vegan. But it doesn’t surprise me; vegans and vegetarians blame everything on meat or on carnivores.
All the flooding and tornados? Meat eaters. Terrorism? Meat eaters. Global warming? Meat.
they can’t blame global warming on us carnivores…
they’re the ones eating all the plants.
mmmmmmmmm
