*waves*

Still alive! I feel bad for not updating my blog for a while, and it’s not that I have nothing to write about - somehow I just don’t feel like it. I was in HK at the beginning of the month, I will blog about that some other time.

Anyway, this post is a heads up to my fellow vegetarians who live in the Philippines.

The other day I was at Mexicali and ordered their grilled vegetable fajitas, which is under the veggie friendly menu. Out comes my food and my veggiedar starts going off a bit. I tell myself I’m just being paranoid, but a few bites later, I’m pretty sure that something is wrong.

So I go ask the guy at the counter what sauce they used with the vegetables. And came the reply: Worcestershire sauce. *facepalm*

Yeah. I knew something was fishy.

I don’t know if you know what makes Worcestershire sauce not vegetarian, but Mexicali sure doesn’t. It’s made with anchovies.

I was given a comment card to write my complaint on. If you want to contact Mexicali, you can find their info here.

Eating vegetarian is more than just eating veggies, it’s about knowing what goes into your food and reading ingredients!! Aish.

On the one hand, the experience was disappointing, but on the other hand, I’m glad that my veggiedar picked it up.
