Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The Fairfax area of Los Angeles, especially Canters Delicatessen, proves you wrong as a wrong thing.

You haven't spent enough time in Montreal and New York.

Or, basically, Montreal.

I can't think of any Indian food which would be vegan by default - most if not all vegetarian dishes would be cooked with ghee.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So I guess you just go to the store and buy some vegan and then add it to a meat dish and it makes it non-meat. And maybe goes back in time to eliminate the suffering of the animal it came from.

There were two chicken dishes, one of which had vegan and the other had no vegan.

That's because soylent green is people. VEGAN PEOPLE.

A lot of restaurants use oil instead of ghee, I assume because it's cheaper. I've found that, at most Indian places, if I ask which things are made with no cream and no ghee, the chef will come talk to me and point to usually about 3/4 of the vegetarian dishes.

The other Indian restaurant near me usually has several vegan options at their buffet, but today, for some reason, all the vegetarian things had either cream or paneer, and the only vegan thing was the dal.

So both the US and al-Qaida are mad at Pakistan.

No Pictures, It Did Happen: al-Qaida Admits Osama’s Dead

The biggest irony of the statement is that both the U.S. and al-Qaida suspect Pakistan sold them out. Al-Qaida hectors the “handful of traitors and thieves who have sold everything to the enemies of the nation,” and begs its remaining allies in Pakistan to “rise up to wash [away] this shame.”

I wonder how this will affect the various conspiracy theories about Bin Laden's death....

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I got (decidedly non-vegan) takeout from an Indian buffet for lunch today. I forgot to wait for the naan they were cooking for me, but wasn't super hungry so it works out well.

I wonder how the unneeded chutney dipping sauce would taste as a grilling marinade?

I have a purchase at bananarepublic.com that is four cents away from free shipping. This is bothering me inordinately.

I once had something like that from Amazon, so I added an eraser for about 50 cents to get up to the $25 for free shipping. They shipped the eraser separately.

What is the BR version of an eraser? Now I want to trawl their site and see if they have anything under the $7 shipping charge.

Unlikely.
