Okay, then, I'll go with inexcusably stupid. Unrelated to veganism.
I dunno. I had cheese, I had fried, *and* I had butter and onions and rice and squash. And more butter. And extra cheese for sprinkling. Oh, and wine.

cheese fries being the least healthy vegetarian meal ever
I thought cheese wasn't vegetarian--or is it OK if the provider of the protein doesn't die for the cause? Is that the dividing line between vegetariand and vegan?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Squash is so healthy, it makes up for some of the other. Also, that sounds delicious.

Well, when I'm vege, I'm ovo-lacto-vegetarian. So, veggies, plus dairy and eggs. Because I'm lazy and it takes more effort to get rid of eggs & dairy, especially in processed foods.

Last night's House featured a vegan couple. She wasn't upset at the idea that he might be seeing other women, but when she heard he'd indulged in a cheeseburger--!!! Even House blinked.

I believe so, yes. Most vegetarians I know eat cheese. Except the lactose-intolerant ones.

Ah, that makes me ovo-lacto-carniverous. Power to the plantlife, brother! Free our leafy friends from their bondage to field and plow.

As far as I know yes. Cheese is vegetarian but not vegan.
I terms of least healthy vegetarian food ever, I would think that the deep fried Mars bars invented by the Scots might beat cheese fries. Maybe fried ice cream as well. (Common in Mexican resteraunts in Texas, so I assume a Mexican invention.)

I was a veg for 25 years and ate cheese. I did try to find cheeses that didn't come from mass-milking mills though.

Heh. I'm lactose-intolerant too, but not enough to give up cheese. Or ice cream. Or yogurt. Or cottage cheese. Mmm, cheese.
But I do buy Lactaid for milk, which freaking rocks. And in addition to being tasty lactose-free milk (I used to hate milk as a child.) it has an inexplicably long shelf life. Like, four times as long as regular milk. In my house where milk doesn't go fast, it's really economical for us to be able to buy it and have it around for a while.
