I was vegetarian for a year and just couldn't keep it up. I think if I lived in India I might be able to. But yes, Vegas restaurants are among the best I've ever been to. Almost universally. I'd estimate at least 50% of the restaurants here in Tucson wouldn't survive a year in Vegas.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

Lionfish should be included, too. Save the Caribbean seafood, eat a lionfish. And they're super yummy.
So where does one get Lionfish to eat? I have never seen it in any grocery store. I would definitely give it them a try.

I saw clown fish on a menu once but I didn't try it... I've heard they taste funny.I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...

Urban legend is that they got washed out into the Atlantic from pet stores during a hurricane, but that seems like a stretch to me. Regardless, they were introduced to the Atlantic in Florida, I would guess about 15 years ago and have slowly been spreading across the Caribbean. They eat tons and nothing kills them. Most of the scuba tours I've been on, one of the dive guides will be spearing them. I think there's a bounty in a number of places. You point them out to the dive guide and he kills them. I've heard of some locations trying to feed the speared ones to other fish to try and create a predator for them. No clue if this has seen any success.

Lots of caribbean islands serve it at your local mom and pop restaurant.

Also, meat alternatives have come a long way from back when I started. Finally, one could make the case that oysters in particular are essentially a plant in that they are non-motive and do not have brains or central nervous systems, and eat just a few a week essentially solves the main issues vegans in particular have, which is a lack of B vitamins in their diet (in fact, there are not many vegans who eat them and still call themselves vegans). It is also another source of protein.

The UK have seen an explosion in people following plant based diets, largely due to the focus on environmental impact as opposed to highlighting animal welfare. I think it's a smart approach.Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."
